    Bought a new toy!

    Got ya, I thought you were being sarcastic as the driver seat in the pics was in the down/standup position and thought it was broke. Some people who have never seen that before wander about it at first. And yes, it is very comfy!

    Bought a new toy!

    Which seat looks uncomfortable? The driver and pasenger seats are drop down bolsters so I can hit a switch and the seat bottom will drop out and I can stand up. Which is verynice when the lake is packed, you can see everyone better. And yes, this lake is very choppy, especially on the...

    Tranny Q's and other help please

    One more thing, while driving, I get this loud clanking noise coming from under the car. It seem to get worse at higher speeds. I dont think that is actually in the tranny as it runs and shifts smoothe other than the small noises and whining. Do you all think the loud clank could be the...

    Tranny Q's and other help please

    Thanks guys, I'll see what I can do. I dont have the money now to buy a new one. Thats why I was hoping a rebuild would be cheaper. I checked the fluid about 2-3 months ago shortly after it started making noises and it only took a little over half a quart to top it off so it isn't like it was...

    Tranny Q's and other help please

    First off, my t-5 is getting a little noisy (rattles and whines), and my center console is starting to get real hot. Today I took it for about an hour or so drive at about 75mph and the console was real hot and once I stopped at a light off an exit ramp the car died and took a minute to fire it...

    grippiest street tires?

    I have Riken Raptors and they seem to do the trick. Since putting these on it really takes getting into the gas to get 2nd gear spinning if I spin through 1st and they warm up a tad. I don't race my car so its kind of annoying sometimes when I do want to break loose through a few gears but not...

    got some seats out of a 96 stang

    http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n252/bhensley7233/boatcar019.jpg There is one pic of mine. And for the stains, if any grease or oil stains give the stain a shot of brake cleaner and then some on a rag and scrub/ pat. It will come right out.

    Now thats what I call detailing

    He did a very nice job on that car. One thing to remember when you buff out a badly faded/oxidized car or boat (I work on boats) be sure to put a nice coat of wax on it when finished or it will not hold near as long. Again, nice work on the Stang!
