    uh oh... inner rockers.

    Hack, very accurate assesment. I had a customer with a 71 Vert that another shop had covered up the rust and charged him for a restoration. Painted and everything. I pryed a huge ball of seam sealer out of the back of the passenger side rocker. I don't remember how many days I had in it, but...

    Ignition Problems with my 70 Stang

    Possible. What model is the Pertronix unit? The Igniter instructions show that you need to feed the module prior to the ballest so you will need a premenent line from the switch to the module if thats what you have. I have seen some of the shutter wheels need minor clearencing. Make sure the...

    70' 351C Starts But Will Not Stay Running?

    "I have the wire that is connected to the MSD box (small red wire) spliced into my ignition switch wire and it has power when checked with a 12 Volt test light" WHERE is the splice physically located???? If you are spliced AFTER the resistance wire (in the engine compartment) , you are not...

    70' 351C Starts But Will Not Stay Running?

    In the Start position, the factory ign system gets full 12v from the solinoid "I" terminal. In Run, it comes through the resistor wire. Regardless of the red light on the MSD box, WHERE is the 12v coming from that is feeding the MSD box??? Looking over the MSD dist inst, what did you do with...

    70' 351C Starts But Will Not Stay Running?

    "12 Volts is coming directly from the ignition switch like it always has, and there is No ballest resistor" Still not quite clear. The instructions show 12v from the switch-how EXACTLY are you getting 12v from the switch? THe instructions show an Orange wire from the MSD box to the coil +...

    Ignition Problems with my 70 Stang

    If you have the dash out, you should be able to see the switch on top of the steering column. Check for 12v on the switch in RUN with your volt meter. The Red with green strip wire should be wire # 16 to the coil. It "may" also be a pink wire at the switch...I have seen it both ways.

    70' 351C Starts But Will Not Stay Running?

    Page 23 of the MSD 6a instructions shows the wiring diagram for a mallory dist with mag pickup. If you are wired correctly and you have no 12v on the orange wire at the coil + then its possible your MSD box may have failed...

    Vintage Air or Classic Air

    I found the same pricing. Looking at the 951168 kit on Summit site in detail it says it does include the electronic controls in that kit. Hopefully the new version fits better...

    Vintage Air or Classic Air

    If you search this topic there has been much discussion about it. In my personnal experiance working in a restoration shop, I have installed both. The Vintage system twice several years ago-so things may be different now-compared to the Classic system, I found the Vintage system very difficult...

    Parts Vendor to avoid-My experiance

    I would like to share my experience with a parts vendor with the Stangnet community in an effort to prevent other incidents from occurring with our Stangnet members and other mustang forums that this information might migrate to. Some of you may know this vendor, but I didn't, and I broke the...

    1970 Mustang

    He is looking for the roof rail trim that is above the door glass when the door is closed-the weatherstrip attaches to this part. And it can be difficult to obtain if it is missing. Columbus superswap would have been the place to find this. I checked CJ and they show the 67-68 only. I don't...

    Low mount / stealth a/c installs

    Its been awhile...the mod was for a super charger-had to get the serpintine belt out of the way so we added an idler. But is not needed for a standard install. We used this kit: Ford Mid Mount A/C ANd I did find some pictures surprisingly...:

    Low mount / stealth a/c installs

    I only know one way and its expensive. I am hoping you get some more responses to this question. The one way I know is via a March Performance serpintine kit. March will customize the kit too as we did when I still worked in a restoration shop. THe kit we used came with the A/C comp, and...

    1969 Mach1 Quarter Panel Repair

    Nasa, nice work. I have not done a qtr that way but have considered it. I may try that when I get back to my 66. I have always used my air flanger on the upper part but welded the joint the same way. On the bottom, have seen this a lot. Cut the corner and drift it up. You may also see a...

    SPI red oxide epoxy primer now available

    Rusty, is it flat to satin or is it gloss? Man, I just bought two quarts of Rust Seal and it only comes in gloss...I guess I could top coat the rust seal with the SPI...that would make for an expensive floor pan bottom though...

    Heater controls

    You're missing the two small claw clips things that slip over the studs. They will turn on the stud one way to slip past the edge of the opening (or put on from the back) and turn to overlay the backside of the dash opening. Tighten down the nuts and it will draw the plate up to the dash.

    Where do I find a rotisserie?

    I built one from this link: Rotisserie Works great. Did cost less than buying one, but for the amount of work, I am not sure I would do it again for the amount saved. The metal was expensive. I saved about $300 if i factor in the castors, shield gas, welding wire, 1/2" nuts and bolts. And...

    Will this work? (Flywheel)

    One option you could consider is to find a "good" machine shop that can rebalance your 50oz flywheel to 28oz. I've done two this way. Especialy if the zoom clutch fits the flywheel that came with the trans. The machine shop "should" permenently stamp the flywheel so later on there will be no...
