    Company name

    In the past I read about a company, I think in Florida, who would update stock Ford radio's with new internals with CD and now possibly ipod interfaces. Can anyone point me to a web site or phone number? Thanks Dave

    Overdrive default

    I've had my O6 for about 4 months and do most of my driving in town. Is there any way to change the overdrive default from "on" to "off" at start up? Dave

    Convertables & black leather

    I'm debating a new convertable versus coupe. My wife and I seem to prefer black cars with black interriors. I'm leaning towards cloth seats rather than the leather with the convertable choice. I used to own a 66 convertable in high school with a black vinyl interrior. Love the car but knew...

    Thermostat housing leak

    Any one installed Ford Motorsports 90 degree thermostat housing with the sensor housing screw on the top? Just installed mine and just by filling it it leaks around the screw. I used teflon tape so I assume something else is not quite right. Did these have gaskets for the screw? Dave

    Cleaning Cobra P by F valve covers

    How do you keep the aluminum "Cobra Powered by Ford" valve covers clean and looking new. I can handle the bare machined part, but what do you use to keep the black from spotting and keep it black? Dave

    Insurance Industry practice

    I just recently called my agent to have my Cobra put storeage, removeing all insurace except comprehensive. I’ve been doing this for 20 years. Two days later I got a call to say that they wouldn’t reduce the rate on a stated value or collector policy anymore and I’d have to pay the full amount...

    All threads gone

    I guess Stangnet doesn't know what it means to 'back up' their system. All threads since 1/3/05 and new registrations have been lost.

    Mustang Enthusiast Editorial

    I thought I'd share the editorial John Clor wrote in the September issue of Mustang Enthusiast, page 122. I showed the article to John last weekend and it caught him off-guard. He didn't know they were printing it and was even surprised it was printed exactly as written. John did an...

    dirt & spotso out of engine compartment

    Anyone have any tricks to cleaning their engine compartment? I'm more interested in a simplier way to get the thin layer of dirt out of the nooks and crannies. Cleaning by hand with a small brush and towels hitting every single spot causes a lot of cuts and bruises working everthing out...
