Thanks Don, I am not sure if I am going to order a new one or just repair this one (I was hoping not to have to leave the car in pieces too long). I did go to your page and find the part (and some others). Do you know where I could get the rubber bumper that goes on the clutch? No one seems...

Thanks everyone. I was hoping that the splines would be the same since they are both out of mustangs, but I guess that isn't necessarily the case. I hadn't considered that the driveshaft would be different lengths. Hopefully I can just shorten the one I have if it doesn't fit (or I will have to...

Travis, your picture helps more than you realize. I just realized that the clutch assembly mounts to the same bracket that the brake assembly mounts to. The bracket that I have is from a automatic car. I will have to check to see if those holes for the clutch pedal exist or if I am going to...

I have a 71 convertible, 351c 2v, 3 speed, car. It was a fairly optionless car (manual drum, manual steering, 3 speed, etc) but between me and the previous owner, it is finally coming around (power steering, disk brakes, and power brakes and 4 speed toploader being installed now). My current...

I have a 71 convertible with a 351c 2v and factory drum brakes. The car has a lot of miles on it, and I am in the process of doing a restro mod to improve performance and make it a good driver. I am just starting going through the front suspension, and having a hard time deciding where to go...

Thanks guys, I am from NW MN, pretty close to the infamous city of Fargo. Here are a few pics of some of my other projects.. 73 bronco- bought it out of a tree row, was a stock baby blue 302 truck. Now is lifted, 351w, lots of suspension work, locked axles, 35" tires, camo paint, twinstick...

Just thought I would throw out a post to introduce myself to the group. I am a long time ford/mustang fan. I have accumulated many cars over the years and spend a lot of time wrenching on them. I currently am putting a lot of focus on my 71 convertible and have been frustrated at the limited...
