    Scariest Ride In A Mustang

    I have two. In my 91 LX hatch I down shifted into 2nd gear to go around a hairpin turn near where I was living at the time. It had rained earlier but was drying out. It was a narrow road, and I guess my left rear tire hit the wet center lines. Next thing I know, I'm spinning 180 with cars...

    I hate hacks :-P

    When I bought my first mustang, it had the obligatory defunct ashtray lid. Took out the center console to replace that little spring tab, and low and behold the PO used some kind of thick orange foamy glue to try to glue it in place to work. Needless to say the fix kit was a waste of money...

    your opinions on my dd. keep 01 grand cherokee or get 06-08 f150?

    I had an 04 F-150 Lariat Supercrew (same style as the 06-08 cept I had square fog lights) that I absolutely loved. However, I had to learn some hard money lessons with a failed business and decided the payment really just wasn't worth it. However, if you can afford it, it's a fantastic truck...

    Running out of ideas... Hot start issue.

    I'd check the battery and even though it's a new cable, the resistance on the power cable next, though if it's the cable resistance, mine produced a puff of white smoke (I assume the heat melting the rubber). Experienced that twice. My guess right now is that a short drive is draining the...

    Running out of ideas... Hot start issue.

    The only time I've had this issue was with old and or poorly connected battery cables and/or a weak battery. Any light wisps of smoke coming up from under the hood when trying to crank? I know you said you had new battery cables, but a loose connection could cause this problem. Always good...

    DIY air to air intercooler on Kenne Bell for 92 LX

    You should call that thing the "Screamin' Squid." That sucker is badass. Make the guy next to you wet his pants when he hears that thing wind up. :nice::hail2::rock:

    Had a slight change of plans because of the seatbelt issue. I decided to go ahead an gut that interior and start from the carpet up. If you've never installed carpet, make sure you have a buddy. It's a pain in the ass by yourself. Definitely a great feeling when you finally get it in and...

    BBK SSI Intake Warning

    I understand. I ran a real estate team for a while, and spent all of college making a living off of commissioned sales. The hardest part of making a sale definitely comes after the sale itself. And people can definitely be stupid (I see even more of that now as a patrol deputy). I don't...

    BBK SSI Intake Warning

    I was mainly referring to the thread from 2007. It pissed me off pretty good. I don't feel that situation was handled very well, and even though it's old, it still counts. I guess I've been jaded by a culmination of observations, opinions from friends, and other Mustangers about BBK. And...

    BBK SSI Intake Warning

    As someone who comes from a long sales and customer service background, all I can say is after reading this thread and threads regarding BBK from the past, the callous and demeaning remarks made by Bryan Rogers here (and in past threads) are and will forever be the reason I will never buy a BBK...

    I'm using Dupilcolor Vinyl and Fabric Paint for the soft vinyl and Krylon for the hard plastic (all gloss black). The passenger tray came out fine after being painted, the headliner not so much. It's not bad, but it's kind of rough now. I'll stick with it for now, but it'll get replaced in a...

    For all you that were complaining about me painting a red interior, here's a red interior you can snag for $400 bucks in my neck of the woods. 1993 MUSTANG COUPE 4cyl/auto Told you they were a dime a dozen around here. Can't find a white fox without one. As for my project, finished the...

    91-93 Seatbelts...Need help.

    Do you know if the male end of the SN95 belt will lock into the female end of the '93? If so, I'd just do that...much easier! And on that note, would the rears work too? (I know my foxes, but I"m clueless after '93).

    91-93 Seatbelts...Need help.

    Ok. I was a tad unprepared for the ridiculous cost of new seatbelts, so I'm going scrounging. There's a Pull-A-Part just down the road from my house, and I'm hoping I can snag some black seatbelts from there. Does anyone know of ANY other ford models that may have come with the same style...

    Amen. I just figure I'll have a really clean black interior when it's all done. Hell, the armrests are still intact even!

    In 25 years, if a ford mustang notchback car that's VIN'd as a 4 banger with a red interior and is fully restored is actually AT Barrett-Jackson, I'll buy it myself out of spite to myself. Somehow I'm not terribly worried. Besides, that totally red interior is on nearly every white mustang in...

    :shrug: huh? I could probably handle the black and red interior better than this. My brother has a velvet halloween costume of a pimp that is the EXACT same color as my stock interior. And it just feels too late 70s/80s to me. I'm a 90's kid. And for the record, it's definitely still...
