No worries - Glad to hear they went to a good home. I've been kicking around the idea to upgrade my lighting for quite sometime, but got distracted by my Jeep projects. To be honest, both sets of projects are stalled right now because of my back issues, as well as triple-digit daytime temps -...

Sequential?

Glad to hear you guys have been kickin' arse and getting well again. The original guy who designed the lenses reached out to me and them and Scott. He did start in on his '72 Q-Code again - hopefully, he's still doing well and can get some time for the taillights.

I have a set of TMI Products Sport Seats in mine. I wound up with 4 seat frames to choose from, thanks to acquiring a parts car at some point. The foam is much thicker, but the covers look stock (other than having the thicker bolsters). Here's one of the originals I was working with: And...

All I know is when the top on my baby gets dropped, something's getting unzipped. :cool: Sorry - couldn't resist. :LOL:

I can't justify throwing away a perfectly good set of tires with less than 1000 miles on them. And there's also the expense.

If things would've worked out properly, I would have BFGs on mine, but when I received my 245/60R15s from Summit with a 'back-order' tag for the 295/50R15s, I waited patiently for 6 months and finally went to Discount Tire for a set (same sizes) of Cooper Cobras, and that's what I've had on the...

Oh trust me, I saw that right off. I was merely hoping to help save the paint on the trunk lid. It won't open all the way, but at least it won't get scratched/scuffed by the louvers with the wind lace pieces. Mine actually just barely clears in ideal conditions, but a good gust of wind or...

Nice car! 'Grats!!

That's easy to overcome. Get some windlace and put a couple small pieces on the trailing edge of the last slat - nobody will even know they're there.

Wow - that's some serious meat, Aces! Can't wait to see how that all comes together!

I had some 15x10 Cragars w/4.25" backspacing, and I loved how deep they look. I didn't think they stuck out too far until after the springs had settled a bit and started buzzing the sheet metal with every bump. I worked too hard getting this car back together to let some cool wheel rip apart...

ALL of the information presented here by my esteemed forum-mates is all good information, but indicate different ideas of how to properly build an engine. If money were no object (and it pretty much wasn't for me, since I decided I was all-in on whatever I needed to do to have the '71 Mach 1...

My Pleasure! Yes, stock 2V heads. The only new chunk of metal on that engine is the intake manifold (well, and the water pump... and headers). I didn't want to spend $2500+ on new heads that would've only really made a difference at track speeds. I just putt-putt around town and head out to...

Hang in there Bob & Cheryl! Hopefully the rough patches are behind you and things smooth out from here.

No worries with CompCams... but then again, everybody has their preferences. I went .060" over because the #4 & #8 were seized and rusted in-place since 1980-ish. Here's the view of #8 - the scar was so deep that .060" barely got rid of it. The engine runs like a champ, the temp gauge...

Mine is the original 351C-2V warmed up with CompCams and Edelbrock goodies. I wish the 'Garage' threads were still around, as the 'recipe' for my engine was outlined there. Suffice it to say: Original 351 Cleveland - Machine work by Winger's Automotive - Balanced, Blueprinted...

I have a set of 3-ton Daytona stands (4) from HF I originally bought for my Mach 1 - haven't had a single issue with them. I also grabbed a set of 6-tons because I needed the extra reach for my Jeep CJ-7 - again, and surprisingly, no worries.

Nope - I have a Performer 351C-2V Dual Plane with factory Ram Air.

I'm putting my '80 Jeep CJ-7 back together and will need one last inspection sticker myself. I have mixed feelings on doing away with the safety inspections, considering there are plenty of cars on the road with approved safety inspections/stickers that have no business being there. I don't...
