    need help w/rr qtr fitment

    Hi are they the dynacorn panels? They are also made in Taiwan,using Ford tooling. I had both replaced on my 67(you can look in garages section) as well as both doors,both fenders,both rockers(these were a problem) and the one piece cowl,tail panel,both valances. My project was pretty involved,so...

    brakes

    can anyone tell me their experience on converting from a jam jar to a dual master cyl. brake system(power brakes,disc/drum)? A guy with a 66 t-bird wants do one,and I'm sure a mustang is similar if not the same. Is there a kit? What needs changing? Do you add in a proportioning valve? Any help...

    How about some '97 Thunderbird suspension under a '68 coupe?

    been there,still there. About 14 months now. You need lots of fabbing skills,or lots of money for someone else's skills. The floor pan will still need modifications. All grill area on mustang needs modificating. Custom fender aprons need to be made up. If you want an IRS use a 2001 and up...

    Will a 4.6 4v fit?

    Hi,I'm the guy that did the '67 conversion. Actually it was the whole chassis from a '95 t-bird. It is all heavily modified and as much of it as possible is blended to or hidden by 67 mustang panels,or just customised. The fenders are mounted on custom made fender aprons,a very ingenious way of...

    where to buy

    I hear you. Meanwhile,store owners are bitching(not just car parts) we spend money in the states and not supporting them,but after all costs, duty,exchange,shipping,etc, it's still cheaper from the U.S. How can that be? I try to spend here,but not when I can save a ton over there. When it's...

    where to buy

    Can anyone tell me where is a good place to buy mustang resto parts in Canada. Specifically fox body and interior parts between Windsor and the GTA, or around Detroit. It seems there is nothing in Ontario,or the prices are way out of whack,and cheaper to order from states. Trying to buy in...

    Tell me what to buy

    sorry to sound pessimistic but $15k is an alright but needs work any year fastback.$5000 for alright coup.Look at $4000 for a 350 hp motor that will stay together.Brake upgrades,suspension upgrades,wheels,rims,paint,interior fix ups,stereo.It all adds up fast.

    My build log: 66 coupe, will be 4.6L DOHC

    I would use the cobra IRS. There are more off the shelf performance parts for it. Plus it is bolt in with a DVS kit. I have a t-bird IRS in my 67 fast back and using 17x8 bullets from the new edge mustangs. They did stick out but my body guy flared out the rear quarters,without using wheel...

    05 gt 4.6 engine into 68 mustang help

    as in the other thread check out DVS restoration,ford racing,reenmachine and some others. It can be bolt in,but there's lots of bolts! Stick with a tranny that was available with that engine. If you want power steering you will use the modular pump,not the original,so look into rack and pinion...

    want to put 04 Cobra engine / trans / interior in my 68 ??

    I agree. I would stick with some of the mentioned companies and Ford Racing. Try to stick with as much original stuff as you can. Some stuff like engine,tranny, IRS,EFI can be all bolt in. The dash,stay with original! All wiring can be upgraded with painless wiring harness. Stay away from as...

    want to put 04 Cobra engine / trans / interior in my 68 ??

    you can check out the website twintorino.com. It's about two guys I know that are putting in modern drive trains and suspensions into two 60's Torinos. They are Roush engineers so they know their stuff. My project is somewhat similar but totally different on how I'm doing it. You can also look...

    up here in Canada,we have a hot rod class for emission testing,with higher parameters. I can also use the EGR plate that goes under the carb if I have to. Thanks for your help,I wasn't expecting an answer quite this fast. Thanks again
