    Ford Thompson PS pump shaft bushing.

    I'm looking for something to do I guess. While I have rebuilt 2 - 71 F/T PS pumps with good success, I also have another that I think is the same, but not sure as I got it in a junk yard. There is no tag, but at a guess, it's the same. Actually, I got it for the pulley, not the pump per se. The...

    Sold 1 owner 1971 Mach 1 for sale in SW Ontario, Canada

    I'll not say the price, but it was up there for a 1 owner, pretty much original, car. And yes, it is staying in Canada, Quebec actually.

    351 cleveland heads

    I had a set of similar heads I bought for $500 Cdn. or about 450 US at the time. I also bought a set of bare GA heads that were crack checked for 200 Cdn. If they're selling for 1200 now, damn I wish I'd kept em! The guy's a dreamer!

    Stanglover.... do you know this car? Do tell!

    Can't Remove Caliper From Front Disc Brake Rotor

    Easy solution; Scrap it and buy new. There it's done! Only if it was a unobtainium rare part that was numbered and absolutely had to be reused, then worth the effort. Other than that, save yourself the pain and just get new or remanufactured or even just a better used part. That's just the way...

    Vehicles For Sale Where to sell a 1971 Mach 1 429 SCJ?

    He was just asking for advice on where to sell, not as an ad per se.

    Vehicles For Sale Where to sell a 1971 Mach 1 429 SCJ?

    IMHO, it's a pity about the hood and hi-rise manifold. Work looks like it was done very well, but I think this car should have been left as original as possible and minus the louvers. Great looking car though.

    Undercoating

    I hear "Lizard Skin" is good too. However, it's the same question, " what has been covered up?". On my car, which is rust free, I chose NOT to do anything to the underside between the firewall and the rear bumper. I left it original and as is, other than a good cleaning. If you must put...

    Parts Wanted any nos passenger side exterior door handles for sale ? am radio ? autolite caruburetor ? autolite gas cap ?

    I have an AM radio out of my 71. It worked fine when I pulled it for an AM/FM radio. (AM radios don't work well where I live) A PO cut the plug to install an aftermarket radio, but the wires are repairable minus the plug. Why people do that is beyond me! I also have the 4300 4V ( square bore)...

    Stanglover.... do you know this car? Do tell!

    Yes, this is my friends car. It was repainted back around 1980-82. You are correct, the rear light are replacements, minus the black accent. Is it perfect, no, but it is very high quality overall.

    Front Suspension Springs and Shocks

    After you play with the front end, you'll need a re-alignment. Most suggest using the specs below for radial tires. If you like spending money, you could upgrade your PS box with a fast ratio. Lots of posts on this.

    Front Suspension Springs and Shocks

    Just my personal experience; I found Gas-A-Just shocks a bit too harsh and changed them for Excel-G and like them better. Nothing wrong with G-A-J's for a firmer ride.

    Front Suspension Springs and Shocks

    I've said this many times and from my own experience with badly made (Scott Drake) springs, front and back. Do your self a favor and buy Eaton Detroit Springs springs. If you want, they can custom make what you want or you can buy lowering front springs I believe. At least with Eaton springs...

    Kiwi Classic and Customs Mach 1 vibration fix and ridealong

    I meant to comment on the video before but I'm old and forgot. I noticed that he has a 73 (style) rear bumper, but what I really noticed was there is a lower shifter boot on this car. First, I don't think they are made for our years and I know first hand that the 70 does not fit........ I tried...
