    Fox Any recommendations for Metro Washington DC area convertible top repair?

    As the title says.. I'm in the metro Washington DC area and have got alignment issue with the top on my 90 vert. Ever since one of the tension cables snapped its been off kilter and my own attempts at fixing it made only a modest improvement. So I'm hoping someone has a referral of someone who...

    Vert top tension cable snapped

    As described in the topic title, while putting up the top the other day I heard something snap. On inspection it looks like the tension cable on the driver's side is broken is no longer connected to whatever it was connected too. I can't seem to find much information on these tension cables...

    Interior and Upholstery Window adjustment

    I just did the guide rod mount and bushing repair on one of my rear quarter windows, and now I'm not sure how to realign the quarter window now that it's all back together. I do actually have the convertible diagnosis manual, which supposedly explains how to do this, but I'm clearly missing...

    Fox Door/body Alignment Issues. Worthwhile To Fix?

    Sorry.. Somehow I missed the updates to this thread.. But Dave (who knows a thing or two) has it correct. The only thing I'd add is there's no reason to by shy about it. It took longer than it should have simply because I was initially afraid to apply enough force. Eventually I got serious...

    Electrical Temperature Guage Not Working

    I wish all issues were this easy to solve. Isolated the problem to the sending unit and ordered a new one. Replacement was an easy 10 min fix, with time in there to partially drain the radiator, which seemed like the right thing to do, even though the sender seems pretty high in the system. My...

    Electrical Temperature Guage Not Working

    I've been pretty silent on here, but that's good news.. It's mainly just that everything has been running and working great. Until now :doh: Forgive the stooopid question, but I'm hoping someone can help me troubleshoot my temperature gauge issue. My Chiltern and Hayes manuals are pretty useless...

    It's an extra expense, I'm pretty sure that if you contact TMI, they can sell you new foam, holes included..

    Expired $50 - Lebra Car Front End Cover: Fits 87-93 Mustang Lx

    Unwanted gift, brand new in box, looking for an appreciative home. I received this as a present from someone who didn't realize it wasn't my kind of thing. So it's AS NEW, never been used or installed. Might be what you're looking for though, and if so why pay full price? Fits a 87-93 Mustang LX...

    Convertible Motor Not Working

    It does sound like the motor, if you get voltage to it and it doesn't move. You can always hook wires from the battery directly to the motor completely bypassing the rest of the circuits and confirm that the motor doesn't work. That's what I did when my motor died to isolate the problem. Good...

    There's so many on here who have had their stangs in much greater levels of disassembly than that. About the time you're showing off pix of your completed project there will be a dozen people where you are now, thinking exactly what you're thinking now. Just remember.. Sometimes its about the...

    Original Miles?

    I got my 90 with 22 miles on the odometer. It now says 53k miles and I know it's original miles since I drove them. It really is the best way to be sure :nice: Of course some dufus at the Ford dealership entered the mileage into their computer logs as 147k instead of 47k some years back when I...

    Kill Switch Or Dizzy Switch, Or Alarm ?

    Since I have a 'vert there are obviously days that are just calling for me to drop the top and go for a cruise, even if it is to work. I think it's subject to interpretation, but I read the restriction as not allowing your to use your "classic" as your main driver and primary vehicle for...

    Kill Switch Or Dizzy Switch, Or Alarm ?

    Yes, but more important than the mileage is the fact that it must be a 2nd car, not used as a daily driver to commute to/from work, and must be garage kept.
