Anyone else had this problem with these? I've seen a lot of it on google, just wondering about you guys. I was driving my wife's fox a few minutes ago, and after a good firm 1-2 shift the knob came off in my hand. The handle broke at the bottom of the threads. FWIW, I have a B&M in my 68 on...

I recently scored a very nice set of quarter windows for my 90. I plan on swapping them soon as the weatherstrip around the originals are just about gone. My question is am I going to need some 3m weatherstrip adhesive? I'm going to assume so to get them to seal. Would I just need to run one...

I've been working on my fox lately, and I need to stay motivated. I would like to see everyone's red GT's! Here's mine:

I'm new to automatics (I'm a manual trans type of guy), so I have what could be a dumb question. I put a 302/C4 in my Fairlane last fall, and never had anything on it to make it kick down. It will downshift fine if I'm just slowing down, but I'd really like it to kickdown when given the gas...

It's far from the 200 I6/3 speed that it was 44 years ago. I think when I paint it though I will go back Meadowlark Yellow. Probably with a blacked out hood and tail panel.

...I know, it won't matter to most of you and I haven't been here in a while. but I just felt I should throw this out there. I have 3 Mustangs that I drive hard. I know that one has a different transmission, but this is my opinion, different trans or not. First I had (still have) my H/C/I 351w...

I decided I was going to fix the slop in my 68 coupe's clutch and brake pedals, but when I got the clutch pedal out, I noticed that the pedal support (I guess that's what you would call it, goes between the dash and the firewall, where the pedal pivot goes through) where the bushings go is wore...

If the modulator valve needs to be adjusted, would that keep it from shifting into drive? My Fairlane is so quiet, I can't tell if it's shifting into drive or not. I can't feel it either, but then again I can barely feel the 1-2 shift. I don't have a tach to be able to tell. It just feels like...

As part of a big car show weekend here, they put on a race Sunday at the local county airport. I had a blast. Here's a few pics of me about to race a friend of mine in his race car. I have some vids also, but I can't figure out how to get them from my phone to youtube, or from facebook to...

I've always had manual trans cars so this is new to me. I put a c4 in my Fairlane and I don't know how they are downshifted. Does it need a cable or mechanical linkage? And where do I hook it to on the trans?

I kind of don't really want to post this, but I'm up for some suggestions. The new dyno day thread on another forum I'm on got me thinking about my results from the last one. This is a mild setup but I thought it would make more than it did. My 68 Coupe: 69 351w TFS TW 170 heads, 1.6 RR...

Is a bronze distributor gear compatible with a flat tappet cam? I'm about to do a 351w swap in my foxbody and I tore up the gear on the distributor when I disassembled it to replace the pick up coil. But I do have a bronze gear I bought some years ago to work with a roller cam in the first...

If you've never seen one and was wondering about them, here is a scan of the deluxe 40$ report I had done. They have better reports and cheaper ones also. At the Mid-America Ford and Shelby meet in Tulsa they had a table set up in our hotel, doing Marti reports on the spot. I thought I'd go...

After I put TW heads on my 351w in my 68, I had planned on putting the 69 351w heads on my 90. But I just recently bought a set of GT40P's for like 60$ and a trade of a nitrous plate. I'm not really sure which heads I want to go on the 90. If I use the GT40P heads, I believe I can re-use my...

My struts/shocks are shot and I want different springs also, and I came across a good deal on a set of GR2 struts with QA1 10-375 coilovers. The springs are 10" tall 375# rate. I'm also thinking about getting KYB gas adjust rear shocks. I don't know enough about spring rates to know if that...

I had a blast. It's neat to look over while I'm mingling and watch people check my car out! I got a kick out of that! The body is rough but my engine bay and interior is nice. This show was a fundraiser for a friend that has cancer, and I was wanting to help out so I took my 68 and my 04 GT both...

I love modding/improving my cars, but I hate repairs. I had to show a little love for the fox this weekend, but not by choice. All because of this crappy material that Ford decided to use. Only 50$ for that other column though.

Years ago I put Granada discs on the front of my 68 and left the 68's manual drum/drum Master cylinder on it. It's been fine until here lately. I think I need a new one. I did a search here and found that a lot of people have used a 74 Maverick master cylinder. So what exactly is the...

I'm going to put the D0OE windsor heads that I took off the 351 in my 68 on the 302 in my fox body. Where can I find the bushings that let me use the 7/16 head bolts with those heads? If anyone else has done this, is there anything else I should look out for putting these heads on, that would...
