    Looking for the Spring Clips on the key cylinder.-

    @Joseph Knopf , my igntion is also not springing back , and if I'm not careful the starter keeps spinning after the car starts. Looking for any pointers on how to fix this. Do I have to pull the steering wheel ? Can the springs be lubricated cleaned ?

    Brake System help

    Great post and responses. I'm digging into the brakes on my 72 now and this will help. Didn't know about having to use a centering screw in the combo valve to keep it centered. COOL!

    Germy's Marti report & the Ginger seats w/upbeat cloth mystery

    My car was built October 19,1971, and my passenger seat is stamped Sep 24,1971, and by the looks of it this seat looks factory made. Since the 1971 Mustangs were already on the road by Sep 24,1971 I'm still wondering if these are original Ford Seats in my car, and just not on the Marti.

If these really are my original seats, would that not be on the Marti ? There is a date stamp of September...

Is it better to tack the bearing housings on first and adjust them to dead center before finishing the weld. Any concern about burning through the assembly ? The...

    AUTOMATIC to MANUAL Conversion parts list

    I got my pedal assembly from Colorado Mustang and the brass bushings. The only place I could find with a nylon bushing is one side of the pedal rod.

    Hello my name GERMY from Texas, do you love my 1972 Mustang Fastback 351W ?

    Cool. I'll take better pics when I get it. I've heard horror stories of people paying $600 for new Toploader shifters that don't work, so I rolled the dice and see if i can make this one work.
