    65 convertable rear window replacement

    I don't think any shop is going to touch a job to do just a back curtain on an original (or very old) top. When I checked around here in NC, the going rate was $1500 to $2000. This is why I ended up doing it myself, plus I really wanted the experience. After completing it, there is a reason...

    65 convertable rear window replacement

    There's a lot more to it than zipping in a new window. I replaced my 67 convertible top myself, so I know what's involved. The rear window curtain is actually stapled to the rear bow first, then the top put on and stapled through the rear curtain into the bow. The bottom of the rear window...

    Can some tell me what these are?

    If you can’t find a #631, another bulb that will work is a #1002.

    68 Mustang 429 Hood Clearance

    I bet it is fun! My brother built a 429 years ago and has been in storage on a stand since. I want to look for a 67 or 68 coupe to restomod and drop it in there.

    Loud Squeak From Right Front End

    ^^ You can grease the upper control arm bushing if you can get a grease gun fitting on them and they have fittings installed. A previous owner of my 67 very cut access whole in the shock towers to get access to the grease fittings. I will be fixing this in the future and put on some 90 degree...

    Loud Squeak From Right Front End

    Grease all the fittings on your front end and see if that helps. Also grease your swaybar bushings. Normally when you get that squeaking noise it's time for upper and lower ball joints.

    03 Cobra Issue

    Sounds similar to a problem I just had with my 96 GT convertible. Mine would run for about 45 minutes and would act like it ran out of gas. If I let the car cool down and waited about an hour, it would crank up and run fine for another approximate 45 mins. I first changed the fuel filter, but...

    97 Cobra Swap Into 99gt

    For the year model for headers, most all will fit 1996 to 2004. They also need to be for the Cobra because they have a different exhaust port. Cobra's are more oblong/oval, while GT's are round. You can extend wiring in a few places to make everything work fine. Swapping wire harnesses is...

    Engine And Gearbox Swap

    The 2000 engine and T45 will work. From what I understand, you only would need the ECU when going from manual to auto. Auto to manual, the ECU isn't needed cause all the shifting will be done manually. Keep in mind that when going from auto to manual you will need the clutch pedal and all...
