    body work

    While screwing around in the garage last night I decided to try the razor blade all the while talking trash on the idea. 3 hours later my drivers fender and hood were stripped to factory primer (w/ 2 people working). Basically, it takes a little effort to find a place that you can get the...

    When did Fastback production start?

    I am just curious as to when Ford started production of the fastbacks for 1965? Mine has a build date of January 25th, 1965. Thanks, Trevor

    Nearing paint - looking for suggestions

    Well, as the title states, I'm about ready for paint and I would like some suggestions for those that have been through this already. The car currently is almost completely stripped. It stall has the fenders, doors, trunk lid and door glass (will pull it once I figure out how). As soon as...

    Gutter Moulding

    I'm currently stripping my '65 fastback for paint and trying to decide whether or not to pull those pieces. Think I could get a thorough paint job w/ them on? I am interested in seeing how you resolve this. Thanks, Trevor

    Free Assembly Manual download? (1965)

    Does anyone know of a site to download an electronic version of the assembly manual? I have found links for some of my previous cars/motorcycles and figured I would ask before buy one. Thanks, Trevor

    Carb hat

    If you are looking to do it on the cheap you could source one from a late 80's to early 90's cadillac and modify it. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/S10-s-10-intake-4-3-2-8-TBI-305-350-5-7-cadillac-hat_W0QQitemZ250221754300QQihZ015QQcategoryZ38634QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

    Value of Used original fenders ('65-'66)

    Wow, $400 for NOS - that sounds like an amazing deal. I didn't think there were many great deals at Carlisle on my previous trips. From looking online it seems that solid original fenders can be had for about 150 per side - now I just have to find some locally so that I can check them out...

    Value of Used original fenders ('65-'66)

    What is a fair price to pay for a pair of original fenders? Not looking to get NOS; just used ford parts that are straight and pretty rust free. Thanks, Trevor

    Cracked Windshield Pillars

    I'll be sure to check out all the welds when I have the carpet out of the car and everything else stripped down. Thanks for the input guys. Trevor

    Cracked Windshield Pillars

    Sounds easy enough. I'll weld them up nice and solid when I have it stripped for paint. Other than Repro fenders and a poorly repaired driver door the car is solid. It has new, rockers, pans, quarters, etc. I bought the car fully restored (by an amateur) when I was a freshman in HS close to 15...

    Cracked Windshield Pillars

    As the title states, both of my windshield pillars are cracked at the top where it meets the roof. The driver side is in worse condition than the passenger. I was told a few years back there is a factory weld there that cracks but don't know if that is true or not. I am planning a repaint in the...

    Unisteer Rack & Pinion

    Well, I've had my rack sitting around for close to a year now. Its time I start looking at installing it. Those of you whom have added the additional U-joint - does it look like that route will allow me to use my tri-y's and z-bar setup? It seems like adding the carrier makes more combinations...

    Unisteer Rack & Pinion

    I got mine last week. It came w/ two sets of tie rod ends. It said one is for 6cyl cars and the other is for V8 cars. This was a kit for my '65 from summit. I have tri-y's so I'm kind of afraid to attempt installation. The other problem is I dont have a garage this winter, just a public storage...

    car or college?

    I'm a student but in a different situation. I managed a research assistant position while working on my masters (Phd if I get ambitious) so they pay me to go there, although certainly not enough to fund my car. My problem is it has me more distracted than anything else. I am supposed to be doing...

    New Centerforce Clutch

    Unisteer Rack & Pinion

    It seems odd to me that supercomps work with this rack but Tri-Y's don't. I placed my order before this fitment issue was mentioned. Mine shipped yesterday and is to arrive monday. I hope to have time to try and fit it next weekend or the one following. If it doesn't work for me I will either...
