    1970 Cougar Disc Spindles On A Mustang

    I was rummaging around a junkyard to find a new ignition switch when I found a '70 Cougar. After I freed it of the switch, I came across a set of disc brake spindles - in the trunk. There was only the spindle, splash guards and caliper. First obvious question is, can I use these '70 Cougar...

    Steering hose fit issues in 70 w/351

    So I blew out the PS high pressure hose in the Mach 1. The homemade rigging (last owner was an elevator guy; has access to hydraulic fittings and such) finally scraped the chassis once too many. I got a set of proper hoses from NPD. After considerable cursing and gnashing of teeth (and ten...

    1970 radiator mount style

    I'm looking to correct a problem, visually, at least. I want to install the correct (or at least correct-looking) radiator in my 1970 Mach I running a 351 Cleveland. My current (inherited) setup is a too-wide radiator, sitting on the front rails, and held at the top with a bracket. There is...

    Spotted: 2010 GT with Extra Trim

    First off, I'm sorry for not having my cell on hand to take crappy pics of this. Today I spotted in Akron, OH, a 2010 Mustang GT, Gray, with Michagin manufacturer plates. He allowed us a good long look, letting me look at front, back and sides. There was no camouflage. I saw trim peices not...

    Needed: Headlight Switch Retainer for 1970 'Stang

    HELP Need a Headlight switch retainer for a 1970 Stang. I pulled out what was there and found the screw threads stripped. The previous owner used another bezel peice behind the dash to align the old switch! I can't seem to find a retainer nut in the catalogs or NOS sites, only ones for...

    Rear Seat Removal - 70 Mach1

    Guys, Perhaps I'm being too delicate. does the seat bench in the 70 Mach1 (non-folddown) pop out, as I have seen in the '65 and '68, or is it bolted down somewhere? There's a bit of give, but it seems bolted down somewhere. You should be able to push it towards the back, and lift up the...
