So I bought a car the other day that came with alot of extras. One of the extras was a set of disc brakes that are supposed to be off a 67. They are a complete set, although they look completely different then the set I took off my other 67 which had factory discs. These new disc brakes are 4...

So the other day I picked up another project car (67 coupe). The car had been sitting since the owner purchased it from the original owner in 1982. The car has sat in the garage since then, along with a shed full of miscellaneous parts. One of those parts was an aluminum air cleaner that was...

Quick question, which really doesn't matter since I have already ordered the part, but.... Has anyone ordered the complete cowl that is both the upper and lower? I basically assumed it was just a package deal with the upper and lower separate, and needing to be welded together before...

I have been working on a car and we have used mostly chemical strippers and sandpaper to get the old coats of paint off. In the engine bay, we resorted to blasting at home, which was very time consuming. This car is for my younger brother, so I don't mind him doing hard work. I'm getting ready...

I'm just about ready to coat the engine bay of one of my cars. This car is being built for my younger brother, so I'm trying to keep cost down, but hes 15 so labor is free. :D. I was going to use Por-15 on the engine bay, and the entire front half of the car. I've used it before and it was...

I've got a couple questions regarding brakes. I've read through just about every previous post, but want to clear things up. I am trying to deal with the rear first because it is off the car right now. The rear end is a 9", that was installed by the previous owner. I am not sure if it is small...

I'm not much for doing body work, but wanted a couple opinions after seeing it done on other cars. I want to add the trunk lid spoiler and extensions, but I wanted to smooth out the line between the quarter and the extension. How should I do it? Weld it?? I also wanted to get rid of the line...

So I bought a couple 67 coupes yesterday and they came with a few different goodies in terms of spare engine parts. I want to build a nice engine for one of the cars. I try not to do anything with engines and leave it to the pro's, but I want to atleast have some background before I start...

Been forever since I've had a reason to post here, but I just picked up another mustang to tinker with. I'll have to post some pictures later, but it's a 67 coupe with a 289. Nothing fancy, just a solid rust free car to start with. Had a couple questions on some minor issues... 1. How hard is...

Im almost positive that my car has a blown head gasket. Because im so f'in annoyed with the car, im taking it to a shop to deal with it on monday. If this is actually the case, what all is required to switch the gaskets? Should I expect them to want to surface the heads or doing any head work...

Well during the last month the car has been in and out of the shop getting little stuff taken care of. I finally got the car back for a decent amount of time yesterday and ran into a couple issues. First, it seems as if the car has been running tremendously hot since we got it running. Its...

Im just wondering if anyone has used the new upholstery offered by TMI. Its the pony look, but available on all of the years with matching door panels. Im just wondering if anyone has used it and how satisfied they were with the whole "sport seat" design. Im getting ready to order everything for...

Does this have to be hooked up? When I had the wiring harness built for my conversion, I was told that I did not need to hook it up unless I planned on smogging it. So now that I have the car running and the car wont shift, Im wondering if this could be the problem? I've checked the TV cable and...

Well The car finally runs and drives, although of course it has some issues. The last thing left to figure out is the AOD. Ill try and describe the problems and maybe you guys can provide some insight. The car goes into gear fine, and accelerates smoothly. Reverse,1st and 2nd have no problems...

Yeah it sounds like a stupid question! lol. I removed the original dipstick years ago during my 5.0 swap while replacing the pan. Because I now have a front sump pan and the dipstick is located in the timing cover, I need to find the old hole. Im not sure if I plugged it, but it doesnt seem to...

I dropped my pan today to change the filter and oil. The tranny is in a 67 coupe, so I had to switch the linkage around also. When I dropped the pan I had a plastic plunger looking thing in the bottom of the pan. I cant figure out what it is, or where it goes! I can take a picture if needed, but...

Well over the past 4 years (between school) i've been installing a 92 5.0 in my 67 coupe. I finally cranked the motor for the first time today, although it failed to start. I swear everything is perfect, except it doesnt seem to be getting fuel. The fuel pump is pumping, but it doesnt seem to be...
