Steering box leak
M Beauchamp replied to Al rumble's topic in Suspension, Handling, Brakes, Wheels and Tires
I just installed a rebuilt gear box in my jeep last night, in about an hour and a half. its an easy job I rebuilt my mustang gear box, the rebuild kit is cheap, but it takes a whole saturday to finish. Like others said google the saginaw gear box rebuild videos and follow along http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/general-4x4-discussion/570869-saginaw-box-rebuild-how.html Your gear box is forty year old and its loaded with rubber and teflon seals, if its leaking its just going to get worst You need a good pick and lots of lube to slip the seals on and off The spool valve ha -

Wow Mike its looking real nice I haven't seen the progress for a while so its nice to see things coming together One thing i suggest for your door hinges is welding a pipe sleeve in between the center section then bore the two end so that the long bushing is supported over the full lenght of the bushing in stead of just 3/16 thickness of the hinge, easy job to make sure your doors never drop Keep up the nice work Thanks for the inspiration

Opinions Please Considering this car

Chris The rear 1/4 windows are fixed , a lot of guys swap out to make them operational If this is a Rust Free Southern car then you have a good starting point The items you listed to update the interior can be easily 3k I think this would make a real nice Summer Driver at the right price I looked on Kijiji and there are 3 Mach1 in the 20K (Can$) range in ontario that look like guys have a bunch more money into than the green car. and i would think 15k Can$ would get any of them, which is fair considering the guys could easily have 25K into them.

Opinions Please Considering this car
M Beauchamp replied to Wasagachris's topic in 71-73 Mustang Talk
Hello From Sarnia Well my two cent would be 7k to 10k If it is truly rust free, which i highly doubt if it is a Canadian car Look to see if it had the pan replaced, What shape the torque boxes and rail Check the cowl ends and the base of the spring towers The body look nice Needs a bit of work I could see spending another 5k on the car after to get it looking real nice so at that point your looking 13-15K which is tough to get back out of these cars I think if you like it and want to drive the shit of of it then go for it -
Before I Purchased My 73 Vert project car in knew nothing about the 71-73 Mustangs, except that they where very cool looking. Seeing how many new member we now have on the site that purchased a project car, I thought that collectively we could advise new and potential members with their journey on finding a project that will actually end up getting finished and help promote the 71-73 mustang era. The more of these cars that are restored, will makes the our cars more valuable and reproduction parts more viable to produce, which is good for us all. So if every one can chime in

My advise is to keep looking for a good daily driver Everyone on the site will help you fine one and or help check them out for you. This will give you the benefit of years of wisdom I bought my first 69 coupe at your age which took a bit of work to safety it but, i was able to drive it as i worked on it. Good luck

Welcome from Sarnia Ontario Canada It looks like the body is in decent shape, but the guys has done some some custom work, judging by the picture you have a 69 hood scoop and mirrors of something else If the guy has huge tire on the back he may have tubbed the wheel wells which i would think means he planned bring this to the strip These aren't bad thing if the work was well done The most important thing for you to check is the condition of the frame rails and under body if that's in good shape then you have a good starting point As for the motor goes, if this guys
