    Fredensborg's 1973 Mach 1 improvement/build thread "Sleipnir"

    Wow that looks really good!! I'd love to get mine looking like that, but I don't have a sandblaster at home and I cant drag my 9" to work with me. I also don't really want to unhook the break lines and drive shaft if I don't have to...I did use a wire wheel on the axle as best I could, but I...

    What did you do to your car today?

    The boy and I tore into the rear suspension today! Here’s the look we are going for with my +2 springs from Eaton! 😂😂 Well, maybe not quite that wild….See my build thread for the details. 😀

    Fredensborg's 1973 Mach 1 improvement/build thread "Sleipnir"

    Well, the boy and I attacked the mustang with gusto today! Got a bunch of parts in the mail we have be waiting for, and wasted no time getting started.    First things first, we tore out all the old stuff. I was pleasantly surprised to find that nothing really gave us much of a fight. I had...

    Courtesy light trouble.

    Ya, the switch works fine. I think it is the connection in the harness. Is it difficult to pull the wires and re-crimp? I don’t want to damage the plug on the wiring harness.

    Courtesy light trouble.

    Thank you for this explanation. While digging around in there and found this…the yellow plug I have inserted powers those latch release motors you mentioned….I didn’t even know I had them! What a cool feature. The other yellow plug doesn’t seem to do anything at all?? The one that is plugged in...

    Courtesy light trouble.

    My drivers side courtesy light switch has been broken for years, and I figured it should be a pretty simple fix to attempt. The actual switch is broken, the button will not pop out when the door is open, it stays permanently in the closed position. I ordered new switches and they physically work...

    Shopping for Shop Manuals?

    I have seen several posts on here where people are refencing their Shop Manuals for torque specs, wiring diagrams, etc. Where did you all get yours? I have seen several different versions of these on eBay and from other retailers online, some are digital and some are physical books, some appear...

    Mach1 sport lamps: What do they do originally?

    Oh, so your talking about those other amber lights below the headlights then. I've never noticed those before, I have a 71/72 grill on my 73...I wonder if I could put those on, they look cool!

    Mach1 sport lamps: What do they do originally?

    After reading this thread, I'm still a little confused...when we say "Sport Lamps" are we talking about running lights/parking lights? As in, the two amber lamps next to the headlights? Mine come on at the first position of the headlight switch, and they just look cool.

    RIP Dusty Hill

    We've been loosing a lot of these classic rock icons lately, sad stuff indeed. Most new music is complete garbage.

    How I met my Mustang

    Awesome story! I always wonder about the RHD’s. Did Ford make them that way for exports, or do people in the Old Empire convert them?
