    How to: 12v Relay

    Yes, the coil needs one side hot (or +) and the other side ground (or -). this will activate the relay (normally open "n.o." switch "contacts" will close while the normally closed "n.c." switch "contacts" will open). In it's most basic form, you flip a switch on your dash "closing the...

    1/4 Window inner beltline

    I figure, the first person that puts his head that close to the side of my car and then lips off about seeing rivits gets a lump on his forehead!!! LOL After I installed the rivits I touched them up with black paint, you have to look REALLY hard to see them.

    Nightmare Mustangs Unlimited Headers

    Quality control has for the most part gone away in this modern world we live in. Price, and speed that an item can be obtained have won out. That said, if MU is willing to make it right by sending you a new set, then I don't think you can ask for much more. However, I would probably be just...

    Ford is suing companies for use of Mustang name?

    Maybe Ford should have put more money into R&D on the 6.0 liter Deisel before they unleashed that huck of junk on the public, and less on hammering classic vendors?! My company lemon-lawed two 04 F350s. I'm not an accountant but I can tell you that they lost money on me that year. It seems...

    Plastic Media Blasting

    Call Street Rod Factory in San Marcos on Rancheros Dr., They had my entire 66 stripped (inside and out) with walnut shells and primered with epoxy primer. They were way cheaper than Hot Rods & Custom Stuff. The Guy they use for paint does a killer job as well. If I could figure out how to post...

    Media Blasting Q's

    When I disassembled my car the area behind where the door hinges bolt to the body were covered with surface rust.
