    1973 T5 Swap...Help!

    Has anyone here switched their auto to a T5 in a 71-73? I'm in the process of doing it now using the cable clutch kit from Modern Driveline. I can't figure out how to route the cable. I have a rough idea of how it should work but the cable keeps coming up an inch or so short. If anyone has...

    1973 Q Code Mach 1

    I'm looking at picking up another 1973 Mach 1. It is a Q code car, however it currently has a 302 in it. Something I find odd is that it has a vinyl top. I know there was some debate over whether the "3/4 vinyl roof" was a ford option or not. If this was in fact a factory option, does anybody...

    i think my computer is toast.

    Is there a way to fix the burnt circuit? I think I remember seeing a picture where someone had soldered a wire in there. Is this a dependable fix? What gauge of wire should be used, etc.?

    Cobra R Center Caps

    You could always get a custom decal shop to make you some decals to put over top. If you gave them an image they could probably make it the right diameter to fit the center cap. Just a thought?

    Body work on my '88 GT Questions/Opinions please.

    I had the same dents in my cowl, thanks to the hood coming up. I used a porta power to push it back out but found that even a small scissor jack worked. Sure using a jack isn't the most professional way but it did an ok job to start with. From there it took some work with a body hammer and now...

    Key issue

    I had this same problem once, all I did was spun the piece on the column that is above the plastic trim. I think its metal and has a hole in it and for some reason the key wouldnt come out unless it was in a certain spot. I'm not sure if this makes any sense but I can post a pic if you need it.

    Prom 2008

    Very nice car! I wish I could have taken my Mach to prom 2 years ago but that morning the starter decided to give out. Since I'm from a small town none of the parts stores had a new one in stock. I think it was a sign being that it hailed that evening anyway. But at least you got yours going in...

    no oil pressure on first start up?

    I had the same problem, the car started and ran fine but showed no oil pressure. The machine shop had taken the plug out when cleaning the block. The only real give away was that oil was leaking out from the back of the intake.

    1990 heater controls

    Hi everybody, I just bought a 1990 LX 5.0 coupe and have a pic request. The car originally had AC but it was removed by the previous owner and he changed the heater control as well. I don't remember the part number off hand but it was E6... The original trim doesnt fit around it and it doesn't...

    72 Mustang Keys stuck in ignition

    When I had this problem I got the keys out by turning a piece on the column. Its the piece thats above the plastic trim that covers the column. If I remember correctly it is metal and has a large hole in it. I can try to post up a pic later if you want. I don't know how or why it worked but...

    Good Vendor/ Bad Vendor ???

    I'll throw in a good word for NPD as well. They have great customer service and surprisingly quick shipping, even up here to Canadaland. One place that I probably wouldn't deal with is California Mustang. Most of the time their prices are outrageous compared to the other places, at least in my...

    Wiper motor test question 71-73

    Well I don't know what my wiper motor is from then. Mine was nothing like that.

    Wiper motor test question 71-73

    Well if I remember correctly, there are four wires. The female parts of the plug are power and the male parts should be the ground. I'm not sure if this is right since it's been a while since I looked at one. Also, hooking power to the one will make it spin one way and hooking it to the other...

    Here's my idea

    Well I was thinking about having the scoops behind the grill instead. The only part I couldn't figure out is how I would get the tubes through the rad support. I don't want to cut the car up at all so I figured using the scoops in the hood would be the best bet. Next weekend I'll take a look at...
