    Seats seem too high

    I am 6 feet with 30 inch inseam and I sit too high as well. Probably a body type thing.

    I'm a very bad man....

    Marriage and monogamy is an odd concept to get used to. It is unnatural.

    I'm a very bad man....

    At some point it is all we get to enjoy. I have been married 17 years and I look when I can because I am not dead yet. Mixed girls are my favorite.

    20" wheels on '71-'73

    Had boss 338's on my 65 and loved the 17's. No rubbing there either but a pretty rough ride. Adding pics of my Mach now that it is lowered. 17 x 8 front and 17 x 10 rear.

    20" wheels on '71-'73

    Nope sold the wheels for a hundred bucks with the tires. Wanted them gone and the Guy was going to try them on a 68. Decided he needed them more than me so I cut the price to 100 and loaded them in his car. I need more sidewall height to make mine look right. Eventhough my tires are new I...

    incorrect Ram-Air hood paint

    Why so few Factory Ram air hoods in 72. Mine is an adder according to my Marti. Mine needs strips and I will add them on the weekend to further enhance the Beauty of the green. Any tips?

    How much should this work cost?

    Delivered my manifold and bolt kit to the shop and now I go back Friday afternoon and pick up my car. Looking forward to driving the Beast next week. Have some interior work to do this weekend to quiet and beautify. New carpet and center console with armrest will really be nice. Haven't...

    incorrect Ram-Air hood paint

    Mine is incorrect and I love it. I find experts rarely take advice from anyone. It is a shame that he did not listen and just verify the facts. He could do an great article about how he messed up and a friendly Mustang owner set him straight followed by a how to fix the hood. Aside My PO...

    Exhaust and Perfomance Recommendations

    My car sounds like a Nascar with my full length headers and Flowmasters. I may switch to dynomax.

    How much should this work cost?

    So why do you think it could be drawing air since it is not in the intake stream?

    How much should this work cost?

    That may explain why he said it was not supposed to draw vacuum. I was told by PO that it was EGR plate and had no idea what it was so I went with it. Learn something new every day. Already ordered the manifold and hardware kit so I am glad it is finally confirmed that the manifold actually...

    How much should this work cost?

    The car has an aftermarket aluminum manifold on it and I am pretty sure it is a Weiand but it is not here to confirm(may be offenhauser). Here is picture. It is from one side and you really can't see enough to really identify it. The cover plate is center bottom of the picture.

    7" round projector lamps for HID conversion

    is there a plug and play option for improved lightening that does not include cutting up the wiring?

    How much should this work cost?

    They found all kinds of not so kosher stuff on the car. Missing exhaust manifold bolts, frankenhardware all over the manifold, emergency brake not installed correctly, and and and. I look forward to driving it so I can get it home and finish the interior next weekend. May go get some...

    20" wheels on '71-'73

    I had oldschool on my car and I was certainly no fan. MY car had atleast 12 inch wide American racing solid wheels in back that hung out past end of the fender. They were 15's in the rear and 14 up front. I now have 17's front and back. The car has not been lowered in the pic but when it is...

    How much should this work cost?

    That is why I ordered a manifold. I also could not find one similar and the person that owned this car pieced together things with what appeared to be spare ill fitted hardware and I thought it would be best to remove the suspect part and go from there. He told me if it was him he would change...

    First show / First Trophy

    Saw this beautiful car today and it is nice as it looks in the pictures. I am amazed at the attention to detail on concourse correct cars. Mine will never be that way but I admire the ones that are. I would be scared to drive it because it looks new.

    How much should this work cost?

    It is a Wieand aluminum intake with a whole lot of odd hardware that was was pieced together to plug all the holes. It came on the car and looks a lot like a Frankenmanifold. The part about vacuum there made no sense to me either since I looked inside the great big EGR opening and it was open...

    How much should this work cost?

    I fully built my motorcycle and know every bolt. I restored my last mustang to a nice driver but this time I don't have the time. On this car I needed it fast and I run a large business and time is a premium for me, I did the seats, will complete the interior rejuvenation when I get my car...

    How much should this work cost?

    Got a text message that they had a problem with the intake, can't wait to hear what it is. I suspect I might be buying an Edelbrock 2665. It was sealed when it came off so I am really interested to hear what could be wrong with the Weiand manifold they took off. Dual Plane is perfect for me...
