Thanks Thanks for your detailed response. It is just what I needed.

I’ve just had the car painted and I’m now trying to attach the bright trim, however, I ordered new retaining clips and I'm having a very difficult time getting the new clips on the little posts which the trim attaches. The old clips worked great, but they were all coated with sealer, so I...

Originally from the factory, were the fender bolts painted over the color of the paint job or let unpainted ?

Here are the rarely seen Koni’s for 71-73 Mustangs. Both made 5/73. These are model number 82-1742. One is froze up from non-use and the other seems fine. These can be rebuilt to look and function as new. I am the original owner. $100. Will ship at your expense.

I probably need to replace both quarter panels and outer wheel wells. Looking for input on fit and finish, thickness of metal, and best overall quality. Any recommendations, or are they all made by one manufacturer in offshore? TIA

Thx

There seem to be 2 manufactures of reproduction outside door handles, Dyncorp and Scott Drake. Is one a better product than the other? TIA

Any of the premium shocks are worth the cost!

Sherrif41, thanks so much for going to all the trouble of answering my question and the photo. Greatly appreciated!

Thanks for responding. I ran my Konis up front since 1973, but they froze up after sitting in the garage for 37+ years. Those are available any longer, so I’m wondering if anyone is using the 64-70 Part numbered Koni’s on the front of a 71-73 without any problems. This of course after replacing...

Any downside such as bottoming out or anything else ?

Has anyone mounted the Koni 82-1388sp3 (64-70) front shocks on your 71-73 by changing the top shock mounts to the older style? If so, are there any downsides to doing so? I think the 71-73 had more suspension travel. Looking forward to your comments.

I don’t have a Marti, but it was built 11/72.
