    65 - Front end feels light.

    Mine gets the same "light" feeling around 75-80mph. New springs and steering parts with the shelby drop. Still need to replace all the bushing though.

    Political boo-boo...

    I voted for Bush and his dad, and I'll vote for him this time too. When I look at the world my children are growing up in I have to vote morals first and let God take care of the military, healthcare, and economy. If you vote democrat, you might as well be a doorman at an abortion clinic or a...

    Alright somethings really getting on my nerves

    You just described mine too, and I have had to do it with one hand for a while! I'm only 145lbs and don't mind manual steering at all (that and the manual brakes means no one else in my family bugs me to borrow it :nice: ).

    What is the best for performance out of 3,4,5 or 6 speed?

    Gotta check out "Best In Show", same guys wrote it. It's a riot! I love my C4, but it would be nice to have overdrive. Can an AOD be built as strong as a C4 on a budget?

    suspension noise

    I had a dull clunk one time, ended up being the UCA. Believe it or not the nuts holding it to the inner shock tower actually came off! That was the last time I visited that alignment shop. :nonono: I would only hear it with the wheel turned going over a bump.

    Why did you decided to get a classic Mustang?

    I beleive my doctor said it had to do with OCM Syndrome. Obsessive Classic Mustang Syndrome. My mother had hoped the beat-up '66 Hipo GT would cure it when I was 17. Sadly my disorder continues to this day. Fortunately I have learned to control the symptoms like the uncontrolable...

    66 or 67 brakes?

    Yup, it's '67. Before I did the Granada swap, I had replaced the '66 "jelly jar" with a '67 dual MC for a simple safety up grade.

    where to get 3-point shoulder harness for my 69?

    I got mine from a limo company called infinite innovations. http://www.infiniteinnovations.com/main.asp?p=3_232 I paid just under $200 for all four seats. I think they look nice. I've installed the back set for the kids, but haven't got the front set in yet.

    So who's married?

    I'm 27 and I'll be married six years in Sept. We talked in high school but never really hung out or any thing. About three years after high school we ran into each other and dicided to go out one night. Five months later I'm engaged and married five months after that. Had both of our kids...

    Anyone else build scale model cars?

    Walmart and Toys-R-us had that three car set that freakintiger mentioned for a long time, I'm not sure if they still do. It was three cobras, a cobra jet, a '93, and a SN95 Cobra. Always ticked me off because I had a '78 Cobra II at the time but they didn't include one of them in the set.

    need coil spring compressor answer!!

    I did the granada swap last summer and tried to use the outside compressors until someone showed me the other kind. They don't work very well at all. The problem is that there isn't enough room to get the compressors centered on each side of the spring. You're forced to put both compressors...

    converting to disc brakes

    If your looking at just a daily driver then you can't get much cheeper than Granada. I did mine last summer for $400 and couldn't be happier!

    66 Coupe A-Arm drop problem

    I just did this mod last summer, and I too had the mysterious third hole in the center. I'm not sure why it's there, and noone else has been able to tell me either. Anybody know? I had a problem with the scale also when printing from the net. I just did a lot of measuring and drafted it...

    OT: What does everyone do for a living

    Good point Ozsum67, I did use the term "handle" rather loosely, perhaps I should have said "When the student is unable to behave in such a manner as to not distract from the educational environment of the fellow peers." Yes there is a large shortage in Spec. Ed. teachers, which is a shame. My...

    C-4 Park problem

    I found the problem this afternoon. I dropped the pan and found two washers, a c-clip, and a busted pin in it. I dropped the valve body and found a shaft with a spring on it not connected to anything, I'm assuming this is the culprit. I can see a thing back in the tail section that looks like...
