    1968 Mustang - Driving Without Power Steering Belt

    Thanks guys. As always, you have the answers. It sounds like I'm in for a ride to get it to the shop. I'll make it a short straight run once I get the power steering hose. Btw, any tips or not-so-oblivious things to watch out for when I'm swapping out the pressure hose? It seems fairly...

    1968 Mustang - Driving Without Power Steering Belt

    Hello All, I'm back to the fountain of knowledge. I have a 1968 Mustang with a 289 engine with factory power steering. I have a leak where the power steering pressure hose meets the control valve. All the fluid has pretty much leaked out and I have a new hose on order. My questions: 1. Can I...

    Since I cant do anything with this car until spring, I've been researching some of the resto parts I'd like to install before I gift it to her in the fall. Wow, you can practically rebuild a Mustang from the ground up if you wanted to with all the little things you can do. I think I'll be...

    I know the grille picture I posted doesn't show very well. From the pics you posted, I see all the spots (for lack of the proper wording) where the pony and corrals attach. My grille has none of these spots. It's a no frills grill with only the rectangles. No spots whatsoever to mount anything...

    Horse Sence, you mentioned I'm missing the horse and corral. I noticed the grille I have has no preset holes for mounting. Has anyone tried mounting the horse/corral on a grille without them or does it not work. I'm assuming I'll need to replace the grille with mounting holes to make everything...

    I doubt its a true GT. I'm happy enough with the GT gas cap and the deluxe tail panel. I was thinking of replacing it to get the chrome surrounds but after finding out its an actual tail light panel option, I think I'll keep it. I thought it might have been some cheap aftermarket add on after...

    Horse sence, Thanks for the info. I don't believe it is a real GT. Is there a definitive way to tell? You mentioned the exterior package accounts for the deluxe tail panel. What else does it include? I can believe I have to wait out our Canadian winter before I can even think about cheating...
