    FMX making clicking noise from stop

    When I accelerate from a stop, I hear a noise coming from under the car that sounds like keys rattling, or loose marbles banging together or something metallic. Also when I make a left turn, the transmission slips in the middle of the turn, then re-engages. It has been 'rebuilt' a couple times...

    My 73 Mustang convertible is original black paint, black interior and black top. So, I think you must be mistaken about that.

    Wheels, Trim Rings, Hub Caps?

    I have a 1973 Convertible. I think my original wheels are 14", not 15" Can I use the same trim rings and caps on either 14 or 15"

    What did you do today instead of working on your Mustang?

    Looks like the same gap on my hood. It is not an OEM hood, but a after-market repro.

    FMX slipping when turning left corners

    My FMX (with 250,000 miles) is slow to drop into gear when I start the car in the morning. It seems better when it warms up. Recently is shifts into 2nd gear but seems to slip a bit then too. It used to get rubber when shifting to 2nd. Also when turning left it frequently slips. I have...

    Coupe/vert trunk lid fitment tricks? Anyone get rid of the torsion spring

    My 73 Mustang convert. came with both left and right springs. I removed one as it was too much. Now 15 years later, I wish I still had it. The lid stays open if there is no wind. Needs the 2nd spring.

    Parts For Sale NOS Hood

    I have one of the aftermarket NACA hoods and the fit is not great. The 'hump' curve (fore and aft) along the side edges does NOT match the same curve on the fenders exactly. So there is a gap, no matter how much the fenders or hood is adjusted. I do not recall where it was from, but it was...
