    Neat II-related gift for the wife, girlfriend?

    I found this website where they make cute bags, cosmetic bags and eyeglass cases out of old car upholstery from the 70s and 80s, including Mustangs. They have three fabric styles to pick from that supposedly came from a "1978 Mustang" although I've never seen that style upholstery in a II...

    1969 Mach I: value?

    Hi there, sorry to intrude on your forum (and for the length of this post), but I just found out my uncle is thinking about selling his 69 Mach I. :( He's had it for over 25 years and has been in the process of restoring it all that time. But now he's out of work and sort of desperate for...

    I got my hinges!

    I haven't had my car long so I'm still trying to find a shop I like and trust. I was impressed with the place that did my wheels and they are a full service independent shop so I may go back there. There were two other classic Mustangs besides mine being worked on so that was kind of an...

    I got my hinges!

    Thanks Chad but she's far from perfect! She just photographs well. :) The car needs body work, new carpet, wheel bearings, the motor has a miss, marker light doesn't work, bumper trim needs to be fixed, engine needs detailing...the list goes on and on. Now I'm depressed. haha hm...

    I got my hinges!

    If I had your car I wouldn't have gotten out of it. They would have had to inspect it with me sitting inside. It's gorgeous! And you say you still have 3 years and $5,000 left to go before it's done? Uh-oh. That means I must have something like $20,000 and 15 years to go on mine. :(

    I got my hinges!

    Glad you got your hinges! How long before you get your car back? I hate to leave my II overnight anywhere. It stresses me out and I end up driving by the shop at night to make sure it's okay. Am I the only freak who does that?

    Wheels are done!

    My first II was a sleeper. It was a white coupe like the one I have now with hubcaps and everything except it had a 302. when I was away at college my brother street raced it (without permission :mad: ) and basically ran it into the ground. He told me later the car never lost a race. When...

    :( How many "watchers" do you have so far? It looks like there's a lot of interest already.

    Wheels are done!

    Thanks for the input! :) I'll keep the different tire options in mind for the future. btw, what do you think of raised white letters? Would that add anything or do the blackwalls work okay?

    Wheels are done!

    I finally got a chance to post these! (sorry for the huge pics) I can't believe the difference the pinstriping makes. What do you think?

    Help needed (weird noise) :)

    Thanks guys! I talked to my brother (he's a mechanic) and he thinks it's the bearings too, but when he's over he's going to check to make sure. I've done some research on how to replace the bearings and after talking to him I think I will try to do this myself (with him assisting LOL)...

    Help needed (weird noise) :)

    hi guys. whenever I steer left (down a winding road for example) I hear this groaning sound in the right wheel area. I don't hear it when I steer right. It sounds like metal's rubbing. When the new tires/wheels were put on I asked the guys to check under there and they didn't see anything...

    Wheels: Almost There!

    send me the pic putter and I'll post it for you. (I'll PM you my e-mail address) Looks like I'm going to have to wait on the pinstriping until the week of the 21st. :( The pinstriper said it would take him 4 hours to do it and I couldn't arrange for a ride to drop off/pick up until then...

    Unreal, Like The Dealership (major Duw!!!)

    This car was built the same month as my car in 1977 but looks a LOT newer that's for sure. My car also has black seatbelts with white interior.
