  1. Big Red Mach 1

    Problem found with Hella LED conversion headlights.

    Sorry to hear this Geoff, especially since I'm the one that recommended them to everyone. Yikes! Living in Arizona my car doesn't see rain, so I've not had the problem.

    Salvageable seats?

    You can order enough matching vinyl to have those re-done You just need enough of the off white vinyl for the hump in the back and the narrow strips on the front seats. I ordered a sample and it looked like it matched to me. This was a couple of years ago and I have the white seats also...

    R.I.P. Eddie Phillips (FastE)

    Long time website member and 71-73 enthusiast Eddie Phillips aka FastE from Terrell, TX passed away on Tuesday the 28th of June 2022. Eddie fought Multiple Myeloma incredibly hard for about 6 years before it finally took him. His diagnosis is the only reason why he sold his 73 Mach 1. He bought...

    Not really a hit on NPD

    Correction. I didn't use a connector for a glass fuse. I put a ring on the hot and used the stud that's on the fuse block. It's a switched hot. I used that same stud and same ground for my camera and also my bluetooth converted 8 track. Never an issue.

    Not really a hit on NPD

    I used one of these. I just didn't use the bladed fuses. I'll see if I can get a under the dash photo. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FXJD8W1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Not really a hit on NPD

    Mine has been hanging off the mirror for two years. Hasn't moved. Mine is centered at 7.5" down from the bottom of the chrome molding.

    Not really a hit on NPD

    It's not difficult. You can go through the little grommet for the license plate bulb. That gets you right into the trunk area. You can barely see the camera when mounted up under the little lip above the plate. Standing up behind the car you don't see it at all. You have to crouch down for it to...

    71-73 Seat Track Extensions

    Just last week I sat in a 72 that had a set of those and the other problem I noticed that would keep me away from them was they had my head practically touching the headliner and I'm only 5'9". Bummer because I've always liked they way they cradle you vs. our stock seats that are flat as boards.

    From Moscow with love!

    Hopefully he can help you with parts shipments every now and then. Tough enough to find them here sometimes. You will probably need him to hunt them down and hang on to them until he's got enough of them that shipping cost makes sense in relation to the number of parts he's sending. I see a lot...

    Engine Mounts Nightmare

    I picked up a small driveline vibration from lowering my 351C a bit in order to get my taller Blue Thunder intake to work under the Ram Air system. I used the shorter aftermarket mounts for a 71-72, but also kept the shorter 73 brackets. Lowered the engine about 5/8" but picked up the small...

    Original replacement shock absorbers

    I'm no fan of urethane bushings myself. Much prefer the feel of rubber. Urathane in my past experience has always been much too firm and always felt like they passed on too much vibration. I I've always gone 50% compression on rubber bushings and not more. Never had a problem.

    Original replacement shock absorbers

    I just put QA1's on out back. Front ones don't get here until Wednesday but I'm super excited to try them. Also learned that with a folding rear seat, you don't have to remove the back seats, just remove the last panel when folded down. It comes out individually. That was nice to learn.

    Original replacement shock absorbers

    Are you talking about the inner nut at the bottom of the shock? I haven't done it yet, but heard if you put a jack under the lower control arm and raise it up it gives you much better access.

    False add scams

    My actual car got posted to one of these type of sites a couple of years ago. The old Hemmings listing I purchased the car from was posted to a different site with a stupid low price. They were willing to sell me a car I already owned. I filed a complaint with the FBI Internet Crime Complaint...

    High Optioned fixer Mach on Ebay

    That's wild. Would be pretty crazy if this was one of those cars and it was listed on the Marti Report. Would have to be a true 1 of 1 with all of those other options plus factory Ram Air.
