I dropped my car in to have a few bits done including replacing the flexible brake hoses. I ordered the parst from NPD but when my mechanic tried to fit them the fitting didnt match. The fittings on the front ones from NPD had unusual square fittings on one end but my car just uses simple...

I have a 68 with a 4 speed manual from a Ford F150. Last year the selector shaft broke, I had it repaired but when I got it back it kept leaking from the breather hole at the top of the box. My mechanic looked at it for me as said the tray in the inside of the transmission lid is missing...

I had oil leaking on my rear drums which I thought was the master cylinders. I got new ones but when my mechanic took the brakes appart to fit them they discovered the leaking oil was coming from the rear axle. My mechanic told me to get half-shaft oil seals but the guys in NPD say the car...

I have just come back from a week long trip to L.A. Went rented a brand new V.6 Mustang with just 5k on the clock. I drove the car a hell of a lot in the week as i'm geuinely interested in getting one of these. But the V.6 was a collosal dissapointment. I wouldnt buy a V.6 anyway but i...

Hi guys, I'm currenly in L.A., Newport beach and am going to Santa Monica tomorrow for the day before returning to Ireland. I need some rear brake cylinders, brake hoses, oil sender unit, for my 68 fastback. i was told to go to Pep Boys, anybody else have any suggestions? I dont have...

I have an immaculate 1968 GT Fastback with a 302 V8 and factory highland green pain (re-sprayed), so all in all i'm pretty lucky to own such a beautiful car. Lately though i've lost my enthusiasm for the car. Its beautiful, and great in a straight line but otherwise I dont find it a...

I have the car over a year now but the KYB's were on the car when i bought it. They dont look very old but i have no idea how long they are on the car. If you press on the rear wing with only the slightest pressure it drops down easily, so you can imagine what its like around corners. Is...

I ask this because i want to give mine a fresh coar while its out and i'm not sure which type of black paint to use. Also is the underdash and the inner doors a satin black also?

I ask you this because i have 14" Torque Thrust D's with 235 60 tyres on them. I now need a whole new set of tyres and was wondering should i go the whole way and get bigger wheels? As i live in Ireland getting new wheels requires a considerable effort and wait, so if the only difference is...

I want to make a cable for the cd port on my USA-6 stereo so that it becomes an aux input for my ipod. Does anyone know what pins do what so i can have one made up? Thanks. Brian

I ask this because some online shops are year specific and others are less so. I thought the 67-70 strut towers were further appart than the 65-66 models. Is this correct? Does the 1968 model need a specific monte carlo bar?

I've been wanting to love the new 05 but havnt seen one yet that blew me away, although the GT-R gives a good idea of what is possible. I knw with better wheels and lowered suspension it would look better but i didnt know how much. I dont love these wheels but i do love how agressive they make...

Does this extra 1/8 of an inch make a difference?

This is the transmission in my 1968 GT fastback, 302 V8. The selector shaft (pin?) shattered and we're having terrible trouble getting the replacement part here in Ireland. Basically we can't get them! These are the number from the passenger side of the transmission: RF-D9BR-7006-AB...

I want to get a new clutch for my 1968 302 V8 manual. Is it true that there is one clutch for all 302's or do i need to know specifics? Wheres the best place to buy on on-line, i couldnt find 302 clutches on Mustangsplus.com or californiamustang.com. Thanks in advance.

I live in Ireland and bought the car in the UK last year. I have a Marti report for the car but know nothing about its history other than its UK reg. How can i find out the original US registration number? Can i then use this to trace the cars history? Any help would be appreciated. Brian

...do i simply remove the bolts and the fender comes away or is it more complex than that? Any tip, links, photos would we welcome.

Should it be same as body colour or same as engine bay?
