    BARN FIND...(actually it was in a warehouse)

    I like that look also. :nice: You get the look of a much wider stance without looking ridiculous like 90s rice.

    Putting IRS in my 65 Mustang

    I've had that tickle for a while myself. I'm set on one of two units for my 69, CWI's ford center section unit or Heidts. I had an 89 Tbird and loved the ride and handling with the IRS. Too bad I had to use it as a trade-in or I may have adapted the rear to the stang.

    anyone know where I can find out of production toyo tires?

    I assume you checked Toyo.com. I would ask them if they replaced that model with another if you can't find them. If they have been replaced I'd start calling around to see if anyone has any discontinued stock. If you've already taken these steps....:shrug:

    Anybody running a toploader in a '69-70?

    69s had a ford shifter. 70s went to a hurst shifter. The shifter you're talking about sounds like the typical ford floor mounted automatic shifter which mounted to the trans tunnel.

    glue for 69 window glass

    Bolt in 70 glass. Don't forget cougars in your search if its a coupe or vert. (edit- skip the cougars since you have a mach) I don't know what glue to use, you could check with an auto glass company to see what they'd suggest.

    thinking about this welder

    Spend the money for a decent setup, you'll be glad you did later. I also got the hobart 140 about this time last year. I welded up the floorpans in my son's jeep and have started the frame/cage on the stang.

    69 Mach 1 hood scoop placement

    Are you talking about the nonfunctional cobrajet scoop with the blinkers in the back? On the underside of the hood you'll see the small clearance contours in the hood reinforcement for the turn lights near the rear of the hood. I think there are holes in the reinforcement for the attaching...

    My 1970 Mustang project - Frame/Floorpan/Subframes.

    Thanks guys I'm looking at going with a CWI or Heidts IRS so suspension movement isn't so critical. I started cutting into mine this past weekend since the weather broke. I was thinking of selling off some parts also, particularly those I won't be using, so I could afford to do all the...

    My 1970 Mustang project - Frame/Floorpan/Subframes.

    BlackGMC & 351w_swap, How low have you located your rear crossmembers? I've tentatively located mine with the bottom of the crossmember even with the bottom of the rocker flanges. 351w_swap, I'd like to see more pictures of your's Both these projects look great.

    Let us build your eleanor!

    Sounds like they're soliciting a buyer to foot the bill for building the car. It ensures they get their money on the sale of the car. You end up paying an inflated premium for a 67 stang that would have been cheaper for the customer to buy a car and get it built. You're paying for a 67 mustang...

    Base model 69 fastback to BOSS 429 conversion - How costly of a conversion?

    Back in the early 80s I had a 72 Gran Torino Sport (I want another one). I picked up two 429 engines, one a 429SCJ. I wanted to add boss heads to make a Boss 429. 429s were optional in 72 GTSs. The heads were still available from ford motorsports at the time but the cost was high, I can't...

    My 1970 Mustang project - Frame/Floorpan/Subframes.

    It's a stock hood with NACA scoops bonded in. I'll be going with a stock style glass hood. I had tossed around an idea of adding small bump scoops on either side of the center contoured feature, much like the grabber mavericks. I think most of the problems associated with the MII kits in a...

    My 1970 Mustang project - Frame/Floorpan/Subframes.

    Nice project! I'm creating a frame jig (for lack of a better term) for my project. There are other similarities with my project. Checkout my garage from the link.

    My first mustang

    One thing I like about the coupes, if its a 3 option car like mine and not worth a mint restored, you can build it like you want it. My first one was a 69 coupe. Looks like a nice starting point.

    So I turned 40 today, is something supposed to get better now? :D

    Welcome to the 40s. I turn 45 friday, two of the three kids out of school now, one of them going in the navy, and except for needing to do a few things to the house I've recommitted myself to working on the mustang again. I've been doing much more designing, planning, sourcing parts and...

    Anyone ever end up doing this? Roll'on paint job?

    Speaking for myself. If I were building the car to be a weekend cruiser/part time show car I could see the point in spending the money for a flawless paint job. I'm building my car to drive. I drove it daily before I tore it down. I will drive it rain or shine again. I've had experience with...
