Now I see what I’m missing. It’s the small steel platform that is welded onto the upper panel above the pinch weld. The nut retainer slides over this. I can definitely rig something up similar to that. Time to break out the welder! Thank you!
Steve you are a lifesaver. That is exactly the info I was needing. I was so confused before but now it all makes sense. I think I can tackle this on my own now. Thank you!
Thanks for the input. I’ll look into the shifter tomorrow to see if that’s where it’s hopefully located. My Mustang is a 1973 and came with the 351 two barrel carburetor.
On the lower part of the fender towards the front of the fender bolt hole directly behind the wheel I cannot find anything to bolt the fender to. I'm sure there's something missing. I could Google it and search for days and days but I know somebody here could tell me exactly what it is. The...
Hello, I am looking for a used 1973 Mach One grille assembly with all the moldings, emblem, lamps and headlamp trim. Any help would be greatly appreciated. You can email pics to [email protected] or post them here. Thanks.

Another problem arose. The car started fine from the key cylinder but when I went to turn it off the car kept running...with the ignition off and the keys out. I disconnected the battery and it continued to run. I finally had to disconnect the main lead to the distributor. I know there has to be...

I thought that too so I dropped the steering column and disconnected the rod then manually controlled the ignition switch by hand just to be absolutely sure.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I tapped into the wire and now I can start the car using the key. Now I just need to figure out how to incorporate a NSS to the C6 transmission ?
