    Help with Shelby ID?

    Here is a pic of a car that was found with VIN 7R01C160605. A couple of strange things about the car. The VIN says 289/2bbl. It is a 'california special' fitted car but a 67. It has the taillights, and trunk area... no quarter panel vents. It has a stuffed 429 at this point. Just...

    What did you do to your classic Mustang today?

    You are going to have to give us the detail then... I still have to set one up on mine as I didnt even install the foot pedal yet!

    What did you do to your classic Mustang today?

    Fixed my rear brake pad (amazingly had one of the tension springs break, never had that happen before) and fixed all that with new parts, etc. Drove it around and trying to decide whether or not to replace the stock intake with an Explorer one I have laying around. When it was laying around, I...

    Correct LED turn signal wiring questions..

    I have the whole Mustang Projects sequential setup. You can get the flasher assembly from them, and the only thing that is different is NO sound. That is not a big deal, but I am sure someone will come up with something that will give you that clicking sound. Good luck

    Rear valance woes

    My first one was about 1.5 inches too long... then I got hit in the rear and the second was about 1/2 inch too short... I guess that is just bad, and you have to deal with it. The short is very easy to add metal on the ends with the welder, but the long one... you could see the cuts from the...

    8.8 into 70 mustang driveshaft flange question

    I took my junk 67 stock (two piece) driveshaft along with the driveshaft out of the 92 mustang that has the flat piece and had them make me a new one. I measured it properly and they made me a whole new on that fit like a glove. I think if you want to keep your original, the yoke should be...

    Starting point for resto

    That is not a bad looking car at all. I know there are underlying problems, but you must fix the cowl damage first. That is an extensive teardown (that might lead you to other things, "while you are there") So, have a look at my cardomain and there is a very specific section on the cowl...

    Late Model 16" Mustang Rims?

    Check out all the details for that on my page, but I believe it was a 1.25" spacer. I like them, they look good and the spinners help the look. I would almost try to get the 1.00" in the future, as they are a bit close, but I could measure the inside and outside spacing for you.

    dreaded door repair

    I think I have a page on door assembly on the cardomain... if not, let me know as I took all kinds of pics just so I would know how they went back together. Good Luck

    setting your own alignment

    I too have this exact tool and you cant get a better setup. It did not take very long and I need to do a write up as well. I used plastic bags for ease of turning. The only thing I would change (and will in the future) is the oblong 'bolts' used on the lower control arms of the 67's, and...

    ... '65 Mustang V8 Front Shock Absorbers ? ...

    The gabriel are just 'stock' type replacements. I have the Edelbrock IAS and I love them! They are a bit stiff, but make the car handle very well (with all the other items) I also have heard good things about the KYB and those were my second choice.

    Windsor fox EFI conversion - hard time starting

    I finally found it... on the bench (or in the car w/o it running) it would pass all the key on/not start and start tests... but when you actually looked at it while actually trying to start, the voltage on the start pin to the TFI would drop... not all the way, but low enough to not start. I...

    Best rad/elec. fan/shroud combo

    Where in Ft. Worth are you? I am in the Keller area. I got a 'deal' from a guy when I bought all my parts and it included a radiator specifically made for the efi conversion. I have a dual speed taurus fan with a custom control I built to take AC, startup of both speeds, etc... works like a...

    Windsor fox EFI conversion - hard time starting

    I may have misstated the obvious... during the warmer weather, I still dont think it was 'firing' during the start cycle, but the engine would START when I turned the key to the run position. Right now it is almost impossible to start (I tried this morning again) and the cold is making it very...

    Windsor fox EFI conversion - hard time starting

    I am going to have to check it all out. The website you have with the ****'s in it didnt work. Oh yeah... Windsor fox is out of business, so I am on my own (not a huge deal) The strangest thing is that it will work sometimes (or is easy to start) and others it is almost impossible...

    Windsor fox EFI conversion - hard time starting

    I have a hard time starting my car. It has the Windsor fox EFI conversion harness and the problem is the following: When you are turning the key to the 'start' position, it it turning over, but it really isnt firing. When you release from the start position, it will try (and most time...

    Ideal 302 Roller Block Year?

    My bad... pistons... its a little hard to read my writing. Otherwise all is good. You will be surprised on how long those things last... especially under the 100k mark. Over that, replace it all.
