    66 Mustang Convertible Help

    66 Vert You've got to perform a thorough check for rust. Pour a gallon of water into the cowl. If it comes out under the dash on to the floor, you've got an expensive repair on your hands. Also get under the car and poke around as much as practicle. Where are you located? Where did the car...

    65 wiring harness

    Painless it is not... I am in the middle of a 'Painless' wiring install on my 66 vert. The kit is very nice, but I'm having considerable pain with it. I need to find time to call their tech line, cause there are a few things that are unclear. www.painlessperformance.com jim-

    Boyd's Mustang

    Does it rain? Ummm, Boyd... Bluebear here, we seem to have discovered a problem. The yellow car with the silver stripes, remember that one. You sort of rushed us on that and, well there are no windshield wipers on the car. In fact, we 'adjusted' the cowl to remove the stubs 'cause they're sort...

    Boyd's show

    302? Why go through all that trouble to remove the shock towers, then install a 302? I did like the look of the firewall and fender aprons, but geeez- why don't they talk about the car? Great project, dumb show. jim

    Q for anyone using Randall's Rack

    Problem Solved Pretty amazing that Randall would respond to my e-mail on a Sunday morning and invite me to call him to work this out. But that's exactly what he did. It was a simple fix. I cut 3/4 inch off each end of the adapter elbow, 3/4 inch off the outer tie rod and 2 inches off the...

    Q for anyone using Randall's Rack

    I emailed Randall yesterday (Sat.) and I'm sure he'll get back to me soon. In the meantime, I wonder if anyone else has had a similar problem. You need to supply your own inner and outer tie rods. The kit comes with an elbow shaped adapter that fits between 81 Mustang inners and 66 Mustang...

    undercoating

    POR The PO used POR on my 66 'vert. I can verify that it is very tough. It's sort of semi-gloss black and looks good. I had trouble getting it off of the rear end that he had also painted. POR even stood up pretty well to a sandblaster. I eventually had the rear chemically dipped to get...

    Question regarding routing brake lines- disc conversion

    I bought and started to install the SS Brakes kit, but the instructions are unclear. There are references to exhibits that don't exist, mis-spelled words, and incoherent sentences. My questions involve routing the brake lines from the master to the proportioning valve and the...

    What's the correct install direction for slotted rotors?

    Slots Thanks- I verified that the slots are straight. The instructions did not specify L or R, and the rotors are not marked. I think they just look better facing forward. jim

    What's the correct install direction for slotted rotors?

    Here's a couple of pictures from some on-line magazine articles, both linked from SSBC. Here's the left side, notice how the slots are facing... And here's another, on the right side with the slots facing the opposite direction... I've just installed my new SSBC brake kit to match...

    The one thing you would have done different.

    Think about using it... The one thing I would change is to think long and hard about how I want to use the car. I bought a fully restored Cal Spec several years back at an auction- just fell in love with the car and had to have it. Problem was that I really did not feel right driving it...
