I've searched the forums and haven't found the info I need. I'm looking for info on what is entailed in upgrading from a cable to a hydraulic clutch. I'm not going to be doing the work myself but I've gotten a wide range of quotes from mechanics so I'm wondering how long it should take. I'm also...

I'm completely replacing every aspect of my interior soon and I would like to upgrade to some seats with headrests. Has anyone upgraded the seats in their 67 or 68? I'm wondering if a high back or headrests would hit the roof when moving the seat forward to get into the back seat. I'm making a...

I'm a little short on cash, but my 67 coupe is undrivable because the shock tower in the drivers side has crumpled from stress. I need to find a shop to do the work. I have had a few quotes from uninsured mechanics working out of their garage for $750, but that is too risky for me. The average...

I could use a little clarification. I've read some rather ambiguous posts. If I install the mustang II from end, must I replace my disintegrating shock tower? My drivers side shock tower has a foot long stress fracture and it's undrivable. Since fixing the tower would require the engine to be...

So I've seen a number of posts on here, and excuse me if I gave up reading them all after reading my 60th thread with no more information than the first. There are just no REAL options out there for locking our hoods if we have a '67. I can't tell you about the other years, since I only own a...

OK, so I was driving on the freeway two weeks ago. There was a loud noise and I started hearing knocking from my left suspension. It only lasted 5 seconds and then it went away. My car was running a little rough on the suspension, but I drove until I could stop. Turns out that my tire shredded...

OK, so my 67 coupe has had some serious wiring issues. The past owners have crimped and spliced it so much that it is a mess. Then the last owner had an alarm installed and because of the way it was installed, it caused an electrical fire. So I have decided to replace the wiring in the car...

So I decided to replace the gas cap on my car. I had to move forward the brace that guards the fuel intake pipe and the trunk latch. A piece popped out that is about two inches long with a crescent shape on the end. My friend closed the trunk and it locked, now when I put a key in the lock it...

So my friend and I were replacing the gas cap on my 67 coupe. We undid the screws at the top of the latch cover that also covers the gas pipe. Well, the little key latch spring and 2" piece of metal popped out. I went inside to grab my manual and he closed the trunk. So now the key doesn't...

My 67 mustang has been in storage for two years. I am pulling it out next week and I need to know what I should do to it. First it was put in there with less than a full tank of gas much less in fact. Think I will need to replace the fuel tank? I know I need a new battery, that one is easy...

Car has been in storage for two years. I figure I need an engine flush, new oil, fuel flushed out, maybe replace the gas tank since the person that put it in storage left an empty tank. manual brakes so no fluid there, power steering (original) I need anything for that you think? Most of all...

OK, so rain-x only lists their wiper blades compatible with 69 mustangs and later and I was wondering if anyone has tried to get any rain-x blades to fit their 67 or 68. I am also curious to know if there are any blades from other model cars or any later model's blades that fit on a 67? My...

I'm looking for a parts shop near central Florida. I am in Ocala. I have heard that there is a classic parts shop around here. Anyone know of anything. I need to get some parts and since I moved to this side of the country, my old parts shops are too expensive to ship from.

OK, so I was changing my license plate and I noticed what looks like a valve stem from a tire in the body of my car behind the rear bumper. It has a label that says 25-200PSI. Anyone know what this is for? My car is a 67 coupe.

I was thinking my gas cap is kinda boring, well, not boring, but not very unique.. you all have the same design and I wanted to switch it up, anyone hear of someone adapting the eleanor gas cap to a coupe? would it even fit? just an idea...

OK, so first I have to get this out of the way, I moved in JAn and finally just shipped my car over to my new country of residence. been 9 mnths to the day since the car was driven, got it off the boat with the last of my cash, so no abuse on what I did next. I changed the oil right before I...

I was doing my usual search of 302 build ups to find a good idea to copy and get some real power and I think I found a good one. What I have: 302 from a '69 with a RV cam, hypereutectic pistons, stock intake, stock heads, headman headers, T-5. I have no idea as to my rear gear or my...

Ok, so when I start my 67 mustang, the headlights brighten when I rev the engine and die down when I let it idle. I have talked to my mechanic who says he switched everything out and it is just the way it works stock, so I'm not going stock, I'm going serious retro mod. And there will be a lot...

I'm a tall guy, and because of that, my seats are very far back and when I get my new seats, I'm having them mounted even further back, what I'm wondering is, Have any of you taken out the back seat to build a luggage rack or something of the like? not sure what I'm going to do with it. I also...

No this has nothing to do with roller rockers, I'm asking about flat tappet rockers with roller tips. Anyone have experience with these, I'm running a 302 and tossing in aluminum heads and thought since my engine is hydrolic flat, I might as well add some roller tip rockers to help a little bit...
