The Fuse Block on my 1971 is cracked in half. Is an aftermarket replacement available? Does anyone have a good used replacement?

It appears to be factory black paint. Gene K.

This air cleaner was in the trunk of the '72 Mach 1 with a 351C-2V I bought a few years ago. It is missing the snorkel and does not have any markings that I can see. It looks like a 1970's vintage Ford part to me. It uses a 13" OD air filter. Does anyone recognize it? Anyone interested in...

I talked to the shop that rebuilt my transmission today. The technician said he always puts the oil feed hole down when there is a choice. I installed the bushing that way today. Using the installation tool, a lot of patience and light taps, it went in without damaging it. Periodically...

I couldn't get in touch with the shop that did my transmission so I called a different one I know. The person there said it had been so many years since he had worked on an FMX that he couldn't remember all the details. What he did say was that there is very low stress on extension housing...

Thanks for trying. None of my manuals, including my Chilton's Auto Trans manual for a variety of transmissions, give any indication for any transmission. I guess it is something they assume you just put it back the way it was installed and don't ask questions. I will ask one of the local...

What is the correct alignment for the fluid feed hole in the bushing that goes into the transmission extension housing? This is for an FMX transmission. There are two slots in the extension housing. One near the top and one at the bottom. The old bushing was installed with the feed hole at...

My schematics do show a R-Y(H) going to a Throttle Solenoid Positioner and a BR-O (H) wire going to an Emission Vacuum Solenoid which makes sense given they are grouped with the other wires going to the top on the engine. The brown with yellow dots is not the one that goes to the PRND lamp...

I am cleaning up the mess on my ‘72 Mach 1 (351C 2V, FMX trans, factory A/C) that the previous owners made of the engine bay wiring harness. I have three wires that I can’t identify where they originally went to. The first is a single wire coming out of a grommet in the upper center portion...

Thanks Chuck. Unfortunately none of my coat hangers were reinstalled either. From the photos it appears the attachment point is about 2 inches to the rear of the quarter window chrome trim and just above the roof/headliner molding. Gene K.

Can anyone give me dimensions or a photo of where the shoulder seat belt anchor point is located on a 1972 fastback? The previous owner replaced the headliner and never reinstalled the shoulder belts. I think I can feel them through the headliner, but I want to be certain before I cut it. I...

Chris, I sent you a Private Message (PM) on the green one. Gene K.

Can you post some pictures of the back sides? Thanks, Gene K.

Can anyone tell me if this is the correct single grille support brace for a 72 Mach 1? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/71-72-MUSTANG-NOS-GRILLE-BRACKET-BOSS-351-MACH-1-/140553147065?pt=Vintage_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item20b99ed2b9 I tried following the instructions for posting a...
