    Steve McQueen Ford Commercial

    '65 project engine indecision

    really about not fitting? honestly i know nothing about it. the 4.6 is bigger than a 289 or a 302? i thought the 4.6 was the same size as the 289 and 302. also, back in 2000 or so, ford motorsport was selling crate engines in the back of hot rod magazine, 550 hp for about 5000k. i am quite...

    i don't think it's the ads either. what i thought was that the income from the ads could help pay for good equipment and technicians. some sites have many more members, yet operate way, way, way faster. others have the similar membership, but no ads, and are much faster. we seem to have the...

    More Money than Brains Club!

    uhhhh...sorry, i should have said: in my opinion, the wheels just add to the gayness. i don't care if they are for racing. they still look gay. a pink dress may keep you warm, but are you going to wear it? maybe if it was the only thing you had to wear and you were stranded in the...

    More Money than Brains Club!

    there is a class. i think it qualifies for the super-rice class. i especially love the 'ghetto-gold' rims. oops, sorry, guess their called 'dubs' or something queer like that.

    i haven't been around stangnet that long, but i have been around long enough to remember a time before all the crap ads. stangnet was much faster back then. i would think with all these fat cats tossing money at the site, that it should be able to keep up with other sites, as far as technology...

    suggestions for removing tar like substance from floors

    cardude, I have the exact same thing in my stang. I have been working on it, and tried all kinds of things...sandpaper, and wire wheels, both of which which are almost totally useless, wire brushes, etc. by far, the best thing has been a scraper. it's not fast, and it's not fun, but it...

    Taking out interior

    the seats are very easy to remove. underneath the car, directly underneath the 4 corners of the seat are four holes, often times plugged with black plastic caps. pry the caps off w/ screwdriver, put in a deep well 1/2 or 9/16 socket w/ medium extension. easy as pie. if you have a compressor...

    Fraudulent eBay auction for one of our Mustangs!!!

    here's an excerpt from a boss 302 scammmer on ebay that i was messing with. it must be the same person. many of the phrases are very similar: Hello again, The price I hope to obtain is $11000 (this price includes the 65% shipping to your door and insurance) and if you agree with this...

    Anyone interested in Stainless Works exhaust?

    be very careful with them, tjvineyard. i heard that the fit on their headers is almost never right, requires ALOT of brute force and that they take much longer than expected on orders (and are hard to get hold of).

    Easy way to remove front spring?

    that is insane. the better totally redneck method is to jack up the car, lower the arms onto cinder blocks, unhook everthing then raise the car back up. they then drop out. however, i would still chain the spring up. also, without the engine in, you would have to weigh the frame...

    power booster removal

    is it as easy as it sounds in chiltons? 70 stang-my engine is out, fenders, hood, hinges off, painting engine compartment. from the directions in chiltons, it appears that removing the power brake/master cylinder unit should take less than 15 minutes. do you agree?
