Happy to hear you are doing better and on the mend, God bless.

Thank you! You're right I am confident these OE panels will fit better than the reproductions would have. I just noticed that you're in Southeast Michigan? I drove past your place on my way from Chicago to Saginaw Mi to pick these door panels up, haha.

Thanks, TBH they look better in the pics than in real life but they will do, at least for now. As Sheriff stated, they will be much more welcoming for passengers than Wimbledon White steel is, but at least it is clean freshly painted steel, haha. I originally planned on installing...

When one of our cars had power windows or speakers from the factory there is an extra, larger hole drilled in the pillar. The rubber conduit that the wires for these accessories go through fits in that hole. If the car was not equipped with either option, the hole is not drilled but there is a...

I got the same rubber plug set and it did have the correct plugs for those two holes in it.

My car had rubber plugs in both sides in those holes and there is a smaller hole that the antenna cable went through. The grommet on the cable is the same size as the smaller hole facing forward. My car had a third much smaller hole that had nothing in it when I bought it. I am not sure what...

I disassembled and thoroughly cleaned all of the components of the door panels. After that I reinstalled the nicest inserts, moldings and handle on the nicest panels and those will be the door panels I am installing in my car. The other two panels I will assemble with the remaining parts and...

Early on Monday morning, I drove up to Saginaw Mi. (about 4 1/2 hours from me) to pick up some door panels from new member EstateNancy. They replied to my classified ad looking for door panels because they are running an estate sale and have a bunch of 71-73 Mustang parts. My understanding is...

That's awesome to have it come alive after so long, great job!

Welcome from Chicago! Great looking Torino, I'm a big fan of them. There is a lot of knowledge on 351C's here to take advantage of, I have learned quite a bit about these engines from the members here.

Welcome from Chicago! There are a lot of really knowledgeable people here and they are always willing to help when they can.

I used stainless works for my tips, because I wanted a 2 1/2" inlet and a slightly larger outlet than the stock reproductions. They were pricey but I was impressed by the quality, and I liked the idea of stainless rather than chrome plated. They also have a type of resonator pattern on the...

Welcome from Chicago! Congrats on your Mach 1 purchase, great color combo! Admittedly, I am a little biased on the Wimbledon white with black stripes look, though. Enjoy the process of getting her the way you want her to be. I got mine out of Las Vegas a couple years back. It is a shame that you...

Wow, a good wash down did wonders for her, she looks like a different wagon.

My wife and I went to Disney to celebrate my 60th birthday last week. It was nice just to get away and have some park time, haha.

Welcome back from Chicago! I am happy to hear that you followed the recommendations not to sell. It is also great that your friend is storing it for you and you can get out their and drive her every once in a while to keep it moving but also recharge your own batteries, haha.

I am happy with the Sanderson block hugger headers that I installed on my 351C. My engine builder (same guy that built my 770HP Chevelle big-block) preferred long tube headers, he felt the short tube headers would hurt the HP. I had long tubes on my 73, and I remembered the problems with speed...

Great job, they look good and strong!

No problem, I just wanted to let you know I was watching your build and am impressed by all you are doing and the quality of the workmanship.

I have been watching your thread and commenting as you go. Your car is looking great and you are really making a lot of progress!
