I’m not seeing the link to the video, could you repost it please, this sounds like something I should tackle before it’s a problem. Thanks.

I’m sorry you got a poor fit, I don’t have any recommendations since I’m not there yet. I would like to ask what manufacturer/where did you get it so we all can proceed with caution ⛔️. Good luck 🍀

Sadly I just let her go(forgot it was in my profile). It was my grandfather’s and I didn’t have any place to store it since the vert is in the garage. It got to the point that keeping it was detrimental to its survival.

Thank you sir, a nice addition to my library.

While I don’t have a tach, I did pick up power for my Pertronix right at the throttle position solenoid. If your rubber boot is still playable, you can peel it back and solder directly to the unit, ultimately having less wire to hide. I left myself a loop so I can dress it up after proving the...

Here’s a picture of the cribs like my buddy uses when working on his Vette(obviously not the vette😁). If you build them sturdy, and use good wood you can go pretty high, having the two post to lift you up, setting them in place should be nice. I want to do this to my vert also, keep us updated...

Great,🤦‍♂️ another thing that I never thought about, but now need to go check right away because now I know😂😂😂

What's the consensus on Hastings filters. I used them on my Studebaker 289, one of the few companies that had the bypass style I needed.

I knew they weren't correct but i wanted a chrome pair that would match each other(they are so big). I thought about the racing style but never really appreciated the style. (My brain see's Camaro) So just to double check, nobody makes a passenger side "correct look" chrome mirror for 71-73?

It's been a while and I can report no leaks when washing the car. 👍

I'm going through this now. I picked up a pair of Scott drakes "for 73" but they are larger and don't have the correct angle, they will stick out too much IMO. I am going to learn to use 3d printers to try and make a base for the mirror. If successful, I will post the results and the file. The...

Tell me I’m not the only one with this thought 🤔 I just don’t remember seeing a “Mustang Summer” movie 🤣🤣

Not being able to see your situation first hand I thought I had a seal leaking but after some time on a creeper it was a valve cover leak running down the block to the pan lip and creeping around to the front to drip on the floor. I’m sure you’ve already checked that but I just wanted to throw...

Treasure hunt for sure, that’s the tip of the iceberg. After work at Ford he opened his own marine inboard repair yard so I have at least 4 milk crates of vintage Standard & Blue Streak ignition parts +++. Trying to get this cache of NOS gold out in the world Is daunting for sure, I’d rather not...

Thank you so much sir. Wish I could borrow you for a day to sort this stuff out lol.
