    Parking Brake Question

    Whoever owned our '66 prior to us took it upon themselves to strip the entire parking brake assembly... the pull handle, the brackets, the cables, EVERYTHING. I want to put it all back, and I was wondering if there is possibly a donor car (other than another Mustang) that I could strip all of it...

    1966 6-cyl Brake Booster Question

    Ok, still working on the Mustang. I have a question about adding a power brake booster/master cylinder for it because I hate the brakes on the car. The local 'Vintage Mustang' place here has brake booster/master cylinder combo by Scott Drake for the 1966 Mustang, and it states that it will work...

    Remote Hood Latch?

    I was curious if anyone had installed remote hood latch or some sort of safety latch on their 64 to 66 mustang? I'm about to install an alarm system on our '66, but got to thinking that it's pretty much for not if I can't figure out a way to make the engine compartment more secure. Given that...

    Can Anyone Identify This Distributor?

    I haven't really had time to check, but I will this week. I've been spending my weekend catching up on everything I've been neglecting while working on the car. LOL.

    Can Anyone Identify This Distributor?

    Yeah, now it's just a matter of trying to figure out exactly who made it and what model it is

    1966 Power Steering And Possible Rack And Pinion?

    I don't think I'm going to bother with the R&P.... since the car has the str8 6 200, it handles good enough by my standards. The main thing I don't like is trying to pull in and out of parking spaces with the manual steering. So I would really like to upgrade that without breaking the bank. I...

    1966 Power Steering And Possible Rack And Pinion?

    Thanks for posting that. Like I said tho, I am really trying to keep this on a bit of a tight budget. That's why I was hoping there might be a 'donor' car out that that would have the parts I need without too much hassle making them work...

    1966 Power Steering And Possible Rack And Pinion?

    Ok, so, with the interior pretty much done, I am looking to upgrade other parts of the car (before I dive headlong into paint and body work). Our car has the 200 straight 6 in it. Although it's not terribly hard to steer with no power steering, it would be a nice upgrade. I'm wondering if there...

    Radio Doesn't Work On Accessory

    That's what I am thinking tos, since the previous owner changed out the ignition switch I'm thinking they probably hooked it up wrong. Thanks!

    Radio Doesn't Work On Accessory

    Hey all! Been a while since I've been in here. My daughter and I have spent the last (2) weeks replacing the carpet, stereo, etc etc in our '66 Mustang. Just so everyone knows, the original factory stereo had no wires going to it (power, ground, speakers, etc)... So after we got the new stereo...

    Ah, I gotcha. I have been lookin around the net seeing what is avail. Haven't found anything particular as of yet. Lots of choices. As for the spoiler.... I actually think they look good so I wouldn't mind putting that on there. I don't think they are very expensive either...

    1966 Mustang Questions

    Has anyone tried the LED tail lights? If so, like them or no? Seem cool, just dunno if they are worth that much $$$$. So if the original Mustang seats aren't good with a 3-point seatbelt..... what is a good replacement seat? What have others of you used? I have to say, that really sucks. The...
