    1967 Hood mounted turn signals

    Err no, heh, its the original C4 auto. What exactly is this natural safety switch and where can I buy one? Is it a paddock/cjponyparts kinda thing or an autozone kinda thing?

    1967 Hood mounted turn signals

    WHOOPS! Hehe, yea my engine guy had to install that loopback to make the new engine start - guess we lost a plug somewhere when we disassembled! I will carefully look for another lead coming from the main harness! Do I at least have the grounds correct? Last night I added a grounding wire...

    1967 Hood mounted turn signals

    I swear I just read a thread about this a day or more ago and it gave me an inkling of what is wrong. Here it goes - brand new repro harness for these hood mounted turn signals, new bulbs, all other parts cleaned etc. 1) Plug it into the dual prong running out of firewall (one side needed a...

    Tire Size ?

    Not atm, still detailing engine and all so didn't do any great shots. I will get some posted in this thread for you tomorrow though! Like you, I wanted a nice wide profile compared to what the car had on it before (205/75/14) which were tall and thin. I am VERY happy with the results, makes the...

    Tire Size ?

    I just put mine on (67 coupe, stock suspension) after following advice from dodgestangs chart and others on various forums. Went 215/60/14 up front and 235/60/14 in back - this is a 14x7 rim with 4.25" backspacing. With that said, the front DID barely rub on the a arm so I ground a coupe mm's of...

    New valve covers - question

    Guess I will pick up some new gaskets and sealer on the way home from work then, although the felpro ones on there now only have like...30 miles on them. Thanks for advice guys.

    New valve covers - question

    Engine is very newly rebuilt, but put on the boring old blue stock covers for time being. Just got some 'black wrinkled' 351 Powered by Ford covers to put on -- anything special I need to know? I should be able to reuse the gaskets as they're new, don't over tighten, grease anything special? I...

    So bummed about paintjob :(

    Got the stang back yesterday and I am MUCH happier with how things turned out! Not a 10 on the scale, but the majority of the car LOOKS like a 10 :) Wittled away at things until all that was left was a few small dings that body workers missed, and little 2" mistaping of stripe. Or maybe it...

    So bummed about paintjob :(

    Just got back from paintshop talk, car looked a lot better today than it did before - don't know what he did, but he started prepping it for delivery and the overall job was much better looking. Still a couple dings in trunk, I'll forget it for now and maybe put on a GT/CS fiberglass trunk +...

    So bummed about paintjob :(

    Yea, I am going in today until he is there (he's always at lunch, or paying bills, or or or) and will try to appeal to his pride in workmanship -- does he really want me to take this car to a show and tell people who left dents in the trunk? If it gets ugly and I have to resort to legal...

    So bummed about paintjob :(

    Ok...end of September 2005 I drop my '67 off at a local paint/body shop that was highly recommended by a friend. The shop didn't have the best facilities, and the guy didn't give me the best quote but he said if I dropped it off that week it would be first in line and hopefully finished in about...

    Here's the New Mustang Lineup Ford should build!

    OMG, here's my MSRP $28,950 <plunk> please hand over the keys to my new Mach 1!!!! What? Ford will only give me a "Premium" Gt with a shaker 1000 for that price? BAH!

    07 stangs with GT appearance package on national backorder

    Its probably close, but the black stripes and it being a shaker on the parnelli probably make it look less....lonely? I think the fact that its the same color as car and in the middle of such a stark hood that makes it seem especially small.

    03-04 Mach 1, or 07 GT/CS, or...

    Heh...I don't have the luxury of living somewhere that has a Mach 1 or GT for sale :D Well there's 1 auto GT on the lot, but I don't know of a Mach 1 in the state that I could test drive. So if I walked in and ordered my GT/CS tomorrow, what kinda price should I haggle? The invoice is...

    Lol I've been realizing that more and more, problem is I want a Mach 1 AND a 07 GT/CS! Heh, but don't we all. Damn cars.

    03-04 Mach 1, or 07 GT/CS, or...

    1) I like the Mach 1's a lot (Azure Blue), appreciate their heritage, and can find some pretty babied 03-04's around for a very decent price. Their engine and comestic touches are unique enough to make me salivate! 2) I REALLY like the new 05-06 styling and could probably pick up a Legend...
