    Dealer made mistake with title... advice..

    Since they are asking you to do something because they screwed up, I'd ask them for a little quid pro quo. Maybe they'll give you a free oil change for your trouble.:D

    Convertible GT Owners--precaution

    I wouldn't be too quick to try to force it up The original owner of my car ruined the top mechanicals by manually pulling it up. It never folded correctly after that. He go so frustrated at trying to get it repaired correctly he sold the car. I picked it up fairly cheap and took it to my...

    '86 Tempo troubles

    Glad to hear you got it fixed One trick for these types of cut-out is to watch your tach, if it is an electrical issue, the tach will drop like a rock when it cuts out, a fuel issue will usually show a slow drop to zero. I hope you got your money back from your mechanic.

    Worth it?

    Buy it while you are young and you will get great use out of it. I've been saying I should buy one for the last 30 years and I know it would have paid for itself by now. I'm so stupid......

    Annoying "squeaky" sound in the rear

    I hear a squeak from back there when I have the top down. Not sure if it is coming from inside or outside the car. It may be the top itself squeaking, since I don't hear it when the top is up. I guess it can't hurt to try a little lube down there and seeing what happens.

    Anyone know anything about furnaces?

    Computer Thermostat? I had a similar problem with my Trane unit. It turned out the batteries were low (not dead, it was still displaying fine) in my computerized thermostat and it wasn't sending the furnace the proper signal to fire up. I'd at least check this since batteries are cheap (and...

    gt500 spoiler ebay guy

    Just curious: What would a spoiler/wing do for a front wheel drive car? Some of the large, high mounted "wings" I see around here look like they would rip the trunk off the car if they were functional. :eek:

    I cant decide!!!!!

    go look at a 3-year old GT and V6 and see which has held its value better. The GT could pay for itself in the difference at trade in time.

    Boot for convertible? Standard or an option?

    I have a black one that I think I have used twice. As my top is parchment, I'd like to find one in that color. I'm not keen on the nylon fabric its made of either. It would look nicer and get more use if were leather. As far as e-bay, $75 is a good price. I'd expect them to trade for a...

    GT500 owners in SOCAL...lighten up!

    At least they are out on the street Around here I only see them at shows. I don't think I've see one out on the street. There is one guy who trailers his, with all the manufactures plastic covers still on the inside and on the outside, and has "please don't touch" signs all around it. He...

    clear front bra...

    I've seen a couple of cars with them. You hardly notice unless you look real close. They are expensive and I'm told that installation can be difficult for a novice.

    Cheapie Wolf Cover I bought a cheapie Wolf cover, dust cover t type, for indoors at the local hardware store. Although is was listed for a Mustang, it is a little too small to fully cover it. :notnice:
