I'm planning a coyote swap on my 71 convertible. The Gateway Mustang is a good one to reference as they squeezed it in without deleting the shock towers. There is another red convertible (72?) With a coyote squeezed between the towers. Its red with a white interior and white mach 1 stripe. Its...

Great point you brought up. I've done a ton of research on the topic, like hours on top of hours since I originally bought the car. At this point I believe my blaster is going to spray an etching primer himself after blasting and cleaning the car. Should avoid any issues that way since he will...

Well here's a 4 year update. Not much new with the car. I have it 90% torn down and ready for the body to be soda blasted. The car sat in storage for a couple years and is now making my garage it's home. Last year I parted out a 2013 F150 that donated it's 5.0 V8. So new game plan in a...

Early broncos are sweet. I'd love to have one someday

I have plenty of experience with TJs. We fixed a 06 Golden Eagle that had been rolled over. Hours spent tweaking everything to make it fit back together. Replaced the roll cage, fixed the tub, replaced the doghouse including the high dollar grille. That thing was damn nice when we were done with...

I have a soft spot for those SJ Cherokees and Wagoneers. J10s and Comanches are pretty sweet too. Everyone has pretty cool rigs. Everything I have owned has been on a shoestring budget. My orange XJ had a "custom" long arm upgrade, welded rear end, and F250 takeoff Rancho shocks/limiting straps...

Title says it all. After getting into a discussion about Jeeps with Mister4x4 in another thread I decided to see who else is a Jeep owner around these parts. Post pics if you have them. This was last year at the Silver Lake sand dunes. This Jeep got sold a few months back. It was just a beater...

You probably see more 2wd Jeeps where you are. Its pretty rare up here in the snow belt to see a non-4wd model unless its a newer FWD based model. The rear leaf spring mounts are broke so thats contributing to the ride height as well. Cool to see another Jeep guy on here too. Not sure how many...

Thanks for the support guys. It seems the common theme around this place is a lot of guys that bust ass so they can live life to the fullest. Obviously our cars bring us together but I think most of us probably share more common ground than we even know. Recently I have come to a realization...

This thread is for those of you, myself included, that have had limited time for their Mustangs at some point in time. I have (embarrassingly) let both of my 71 verts sit in a pair of storage bays for about a year now due to other projects and opportunities. Late last year I had what is...

The stance on that car is just mean. Front tires tucked just a touch, rocker panel looks pretty level with the ground. I like it.

Thanks for the correction guys. After a 2nd look I would definitely agree about the points you made

This appears to be an original drivers fender for 71-72. Ad says original and it has a Ford sticker above the marker light hole. Not sure how hard to find or valuable something like this is but maybe worth a look. http://chicago.craigslist.org/wcl/pts/5421559049.html

The standard hood probably isn't too valuable but if that bumper has any life at all its gotta be worth $50 http://grandrapids.craigslist.org/pts/5383509385.html
