    Buying new upholstery - help decide on color

    So I'm going with the 5.0Resto upholstery kit to replace the worn leather in my '90 GT. The factory color is Titanium Grey which I was originally going to go with in cloth but now I'm second guessing and think maybe I should do Black seats. Does anyone have black seats in an otherwise grey...

    Seat Options

    I would like to replace my cracked up leather seats in my ’90 with something else. I know a lot of people opted for the 94+ seats, but what else has been used? Are there seats from other vehicles (not necessarily Fords) that fit well in a mustang? I am not into buying “racing seats” for it and...

    Cruise not working

    I’m replacing the heater core in my ’90 this weekend and would also like to get my cruise working at the same time. Beyond the obvious fuse check what should I look for? What’s the common cause of cruise control not working? For background, it always used to work, sometimes you would have to...

    Checking for worn suspension parts

    What is the most effective way to check for a) worn ball joints, b) worn tie rods and c) worn bushings? Changing struts so I want to make sure all else is good since I am taking it apart anyway. BTW, shouldn’t make any difference, but this is on a Ford Escape.

    Lower Control Arm Bolts

    Does anyone in Regina have a couple spare lower control arm bolts for a fox body mustang? Strange request but I need some and the dealership no longer carries them, I would just find a replacement bolt but the factory ones have that shoulder on them that allows them to fit in the bushing better.

    So the rear sub frame on my car is rusting from the inside out. Maybe from water sitting in there for too long, I don't know but it is pretty thin. In any case the rest of the car is imaculate and I really do not want to get rid of it. So would it be possible to cut out the rear subframe from...

    Help me with rust

    My car is rusting away and I don’t really want to sell it. The problem is not the body by the undercarriage from the rear wheels back, primarily the sub-frames and trunk pan. This is not typical rust as it seems to get between layers of metal and flake off in large pieces – the frame rails are...
