    What 302w air cleaner/ pcv hoses?

    Steve, thanks regarding "Ford Basic Numbering" when searching those numbers I was noting that the end letters were changing and some searches were referencing 68/69/70's and yea I came to the conclusion that it was a base number with revisions. Luckily for me the DOAZ-6A664-C hose is available...

    What 302w air cleaner/ pcv hoses?

    David thanks for your reply, looking at your pics for the 351 the connection on the rear are different from mine; mine has the steel line as kindly provided in the image by Steve. The image of the Ford setup really does help, confusing to look at at first glance because the illustration is...

    What 302w air cleaner/ pcv hoses?

    Hi, I have a 73 302w convertible, with original air cleaner. I'm trying to find out what hoses connect to the rockers covers. I can find only for 351c when I do google mustang searches.  Standing in front of the car looking into the engine bay on the right rocker cover bank the oil filler twist...

I just...

    Can you fit a power antenna under the fender?

    Thanks for all the info and the pic from rpxr400 which really helped, I tried looking at Don's web picture but detail was too hard to discern. I know Don 'Ohio Mustang Supply' is a big supporter of 71/3 from reading this forum and it's really good to know that someone is starting to deal with...

    Can you fit a power antenna under the fender?

    Not in a hurry and thanks for the offer. This is more a project for next year, looking at the NPD link none of those screw apart at the base, the power option one looks similar to the generics available on ebay uk for £20-30, I think the method to fit the power option involves removing the...

    Can you fit a power antenna under the fender?

    I don't mind having a fixed antenna, as long as it can be removed at the base, just leaving the fixing plate on the fender, I have a standard repro 73 antenna that telescopes down but it still sticks approx 12" out of the fender, if it unscrewed at the base I'd be happy. Are Fox body mustangs...

    Can you fit a power antenna under the fender?

    A good idea, wouldn't work on London streets, that antenna would be like a red rag to a bull popping through the cover, kids or for that matter adults would bend or rip it off in no time.

    Can you fit a power antenna under the fender?

    25 year ago, I remember as if it was yesterday ;) Good idea with doing a cardboard template, I'll most likely do that. I have the original long antenna but I'm going to be parking my car outside on the streets of London and will use a car cover and the Antenna is a problem in that respect, I...

    Can you fit a power antenna under the fender?

    You got a link to one that would fit, I thought that the cowl panel was very close making fitting hard. I seem to remember buying a generic fully retractable telescopic antenna that you would push in flush to the mounting nut, but the underside that would hold the retracted telescopic elements...

    Nice 73 Grande sighting

    Nice car, never seen triple gauges below the heater controls and trans ashtray holder, must be aftermarket I'd love to find the kit to do just that.

    Can you fit a power antenna under the fender?

    As above on a 73 mustang the original antenna is Hugh and does not contract all the way. I looked and there is hardly any space to put an electric antenna motor especially if you try to use the correct location. Is or was there ever a stumpy sized power antenna that would fit in the original...

    Seatbelt location

    I have a convertible, it actually the retractor for the front seats I'm interested in, its bolted to the inner rocker and you pull the belt out of the plastic covered retractor over your lap to attach the other part of the lapbelt that is attached to the trans tunnel. I've searched through all...

    Remote mirror fitting to drivers door.

    Bingo!!! Thanks Jeff, that is indeed the part I'm missing, seems like the black plastic bit I've got is not original. I'll see if I can get one posted to the UK, failing that I should be able to weld and file a washer into that shape. Pegleg, just done a recheck on your original link, if I...

    Remote mirror fitting to drivers door.

    Thanks, tried both part no's in mustanghouseparts, one is for a 1970 round bezel which looks similar but the plate is for a 69 and not similar or relevant for a 71/3. I expect the plate should be similar to a round flat washer with maybe a locking tab or flat to stop the control knob from...

    Seatbelt location

    Bump. I'd like to know also, I have a 73 vert and original 73 retractors but they seem too close to the rear of the front seat and don't seem to fit; should the retractor fit upright or sideways? I suspect my car has the hole for fitting to the inner rocker in the incorrect position. Any...
