    Ever wonder why

    I've got 15 of the correct cleveland type Robertshaw 192 degree thermostats with the hat if anyone needs one. I have 2 clevelands and both run at perfect temps even when its 115 degrees outside. Trick is to have a clean radiator but also a clean block in the water passages. Some people try to...

    Phoenix Area Support?

    Only thing I suggest is upgrade the front end parts using opentrackers roller perches and upper control arms. I made mine and the front end is much smoother.

    Phoenix Area Support?

    I'm in Gilbert. I know the shop. They are probably the best ones in the area to do the work. If you can't afford their prices you can do the work yourself and save some cash. Just be aware it cost me 26 grand to rebuild my vert and I did all the labor except for a quarter panel replacement.

Works nice. Still can't see out of the Mach 1 though. Just make sure you are accelerating faster than...

    Cowl Shake

    Make sure your door hinges and lock pin are tight and use new door seals. I upgraded the size of my door bushings and replaced everything else. It still flexes the body but it is more like a flex rather than a big rattle when I go over RR tracks. Tight doors make a big difference and doesn't...

    Racing Mirrors

    I added a remote to my car. Look for a late 70's cougar with the sport mirrors. Take your original base and drill out a hole large enough for the cable. Take the cougar mirror and carefully disassemble the 3 cables at the control knob. Reassemble after you slide the cable through the original...
