    New girl on the block

    Jerseygirl, buying a GT with an auto transmission should be a sin :D Get your husband to teach you to drive a stick!!! Nothing is more fun than lighting up some tires and pounding gears in a badass ride! I bought my '65 coupe when I was 18. One of the features that I had to have in the...

    Alright...fess-up! Who are you trying to impress??

    While I won't be purchasing an '05, I will be purchasing an '06 GT or Special Edition. So why will I be purchasing a new mustang.... I am 25, single, and work in the IT field. I have a 65 coupe that is going through a complete restomod right now, I am talking new engine (over 450hp), 5...

    Winterize My 67 Stang

    Take some empty tuna fish cans and put moth balls in them. Then place the cans throughout the car. Also put a few moth balls inside your exhaust tips. This will keep the mice away. later, Chris

    Starting Problems

    Ok, everyone here has always been extemely helpful so I am asking my question here. While my problem is with a 96 Probe, it is a "general" question. Here is my situation as of recently: 1. Sometimes my car starts fine for weeks and then gives me problems. Either the car will sit there and...

    For the guy who said I'd never sit in a Ford GT.. PICS INSIDE

    Notice how he has white gloves on in the first picture? I guess he didn't want to leave any grubby little hand prints anywhere! Anyone have 150K that I could borrow? later, Chris

    Well the insurance verdict came in today....

    BTW, don't be to concerned with the agreement that you have with your insurance company. They shouldn't be concerned with what you have the car insured for through them. For example, if I am only carrying liability on my car and someone hits me, it is still my insurance company's responsibility...

    Well the insurance verdict came in today....

    First and foremost, I would stop talking to anyone and everyone with the exception of those on this board, your insurance agent, and your lawyer. Completely cut off all communications with the other insurance company and don't sign a thing. Your insurance agent and company are there for a...

    Frame rails

    My uncle and I replaced both rear frame rails and both front portions of the front frame rails. We had the car sitting on a square and used the proper gauges that hang from the frame rails. I have the dimensions of the '65 and '66 coupe at home. PM me and I'll get them out to you when I get...

    Pain all the way

    Ah you pansy! :D I went through the same amount of Aircraft stipper that you did on my '65. I personally enjoyed stripping the car. My '65 is the first car that I have ever restored...actually it's a restomod (my uncle and I are doing it). Once I was finished stipping it, I felt great to...

    If you could tell Ford what to 'touch up' on the 05...

    Gotta agree with you all on here...build the concept! The side scoops looked sweet on the concept. While the side window scoops probably not implemented for safety reasons, they do look great. The combination of the side and window scoops gave great lines to the car and it looked down-right...

    Concept Scoops

    BTW, I started comparing pics of the '05 and the concept side-by-side. It appears that some modification to the car would need to be done to fit the vehicle with the concept style "window" scoops. It appears that the lines that lead into the scoop start a lot closer to the door than the...

    Concept Scoops

    I have seen that picture before. While it does look sharp, I really like the lines that the scoops on the concept give the car. They are more "form fitting" and stream lined with the car. I am in the process of completing my '65 so that I can have it on the road by this coming spring. As...

    Concept Scoops

    Does anyone know if there is a company that will be producing the side and window scoops that appeared on the concept Mustangs? I really like the looks of the '05 with the scoops. I also like the looks of the round turn signal lights that are on the concept. later, Chris

    Boyd's show

    No offense here, but you must not be watching Overhaulin'. They have had some cars on there that are in pretty bad shape. I have watched every episode and those guys do an amazing job to say the very least. I was on there website and the only real stipulation on getting a car on the show is...

    Boyd's Mustang

    Ehh, the car looks ok. I don't care for the color scheme and it doesn't appear that anything was done to the car to give it that "special" touch to make it stand out. On the other hand, the fastback the Chip Foose did on overhaulin' :drool: later, Chris

    Polyurethane bushings

    Are Polyurethane bushings that bad at squeeking. I bought my suspension for my '65 coupe over a year ago from Mustangs Plus and it came with poly. bushings. I have not installed the kit yet so I am not sure how bad they are going to squeek. I heard that if you really grease them up there...

    Rear end traction control

    Go with the Shelby under-ride traction bars. However, they will need to be welded to the frame. If you are going to have them installed, might as well add some subframe connectors if you don't have them yet. The tracion bars are tubular and are barly noticable. They are not big and bulky...
