    $500 Suspension

    Up over $600 now... Another quick question: I've seen a lot of suspension kits that come with new upper/lower control arm assemblies. I originally just planned to remove them, change the bushings, paint 'em and slap 'em back in! Is there any benefits to changing these old arms to new stock...

    Replacing rear springs

    Wow! This is pretty ironic. I'm in the middle of doing an "around $500" suspension build and was taking a look at my rear springs. Wouldn't you know that I have the same exact problem! My passenger side sits about 1-1/2" higher than my drivers side. Let me know if you find a place with...

    $500 Suspension

    Yeah, I knew to do the steering stuff would be out of the question, but hey...I can nudge tha wife to see what I could come up with. Here are some options I was thinking about that would keep me around the $500 price range(well a little over:D ) Option 1: Stock complete bushing kit New...

    69 deluxe door panel window felts/Stainless trim?

    Paul, I don't know if you've fixed this problem yet, but this does suck.:nonono: I received the Repops, but they didn't come with any hardware. I took the olds ones off to reuse them, but am trying to figure out the best way to remount them onto the new door panels. Any suggestions. I don't...

    Installing some new spring perches but need the nuts and bolts

    This is just to coincidental if you ask me.... I was over a fellow Mustanger's house this past weekend and we started talking about suspensions. Of course roller perches came up. He lit up with excitement, explaining to me that he "knew the guy" that made them. Not only that, but he lived in...

    Interior Color

    Darn! Man, I gotta start checking the classifieds more often! I already dropped over 4 bills for the door panels and another 3 for the comfort weave seats. Problem is, since Year 1 sent me that baby blue headliner, I don't know what to expect for my seat covers. Just to be straight, you do...

    '66 mustang purchase?

    Agreed. The time and money you are going to have to put into this car will be better spent starting out with a better project. If you spend the extra money for a better body now, you'll save yourself time, money, heartache, and good ole' elbow juice.....

    Hood Scoops

    So....there I was....Contemplating on installing a hood scoop. Then it hit me? How does a hood scoop work? Is it really even worth it? I like the way it looks, but what if it rains? Hmmmm. Then I thought, either most hood scoops out there are just for plain ole' good looks or i'm missing...
