This is how I rebuilt mine. https://72mach1mustang.blogspot.com/2023/07/window-winder-handles.html Mine is a 72. Fortunately the handles were in good shape.. Basically I bought 73 window winder handle that have the knobs installed. I then removed the knobs and reinstalled them on my original 72...

I could not find any repro seal kits for the non AC heater box. I ended up driling out the rivets that hold the metal backing on, then replaced the core and made my own seals. I went to the local hardware store and bought some high density foam and made my own gaskets. Here is a link to a few...

Thanks for the info. Most appreciated. So if I was to get "original looking" number plates, I should get no numbers in the top corners, just rectangle embossments to enable stickers to be placed. Thanks again!

Guys, I live in Melbourne, Australia and would like to order a pair of custom / replica California number plates for my July 72 Mach 1. I found this site that can create them and ship to me...

Per an earlier post. Where does the negative heavy duty wire go from the battery? Does it go direct to the block or does it go from the battery to the body and then to the block? I had issues and found that the black / or negative only went from the battery to the block and the rest of the car...

Geoff, and team, Thanks for the info. Here is the link to the 429 Mustangs site re the stripes. - http://429mustangcougarinfo.50megs.com/paint_info.htm I have a local club member that is a sign writer and is going to help put them on. The ones I have look like they were made locally. So may...

Guys, I found a set of Mach 1 stripes (black) that look like they were created / printed here in Australia. They look to have the right taper. Question is. The stripes I have are gloss. From the factory, were they gloss, satin or matt?

A big thumbs up from me also. Its always hard to get reasonable shipping costs to get items shipped to Australia. These guys are great and very helpful. Always ready to help and answer questions.. Highly recommended.

Thanks for the Pic Dawson357. That helps. Geoff, It is not a concours car but I like things to be "right" for my own sanity. So all good. Thx.

Thanks mate. PM Sent.

Hey guys, Not long ago I removed the grill, bumper, stone tray and head light assemblies to clean up the parts and repaint the parts and radiator support panel. My Mach1 is a fairly original, unmolested car and I like to put things back to the correct place or put things right. When I removed...

Anyone able to assist?

Michael, The plastic part on the end of the air cleaner snorkel was on the car when I got it. So is a factory part.

Finally got around to installing the cold air pipe. The one I ordered was the Jeep part per earlier discussions. ( J-3231980 flex duct offered by Crown Automotive) I measured the part before installing. I did not cut the Jeep part. I just pushed it into the receiving ends and job done. It is not...

Michael.. Yes I did. Arrived on Friday. I need to now test fit and install. I will keep you posted.

Hey guys, I'm wondering is someone can help. I am in Australia and own a 72 Mach 1. I have had it for the last few years and would like to see if I can get a Vehicle history record for the car from the California DMV. It looks like an electronic version can be requested on line for $2. The issue...

Geoff, Thanks for the info. I found Jim's latest catalogue here > Per page 75 I see the engine compartment decals. Mine is a 72 H code, FMX auto with California emissions. I don't have a copy of the Marti book. Could you please do me a favour and look up the correct code for my engine? Could...

While we are on the subject on engine bay.. What is the sticker on the front of the right hand (driver side) valve cover. Is it a part number? Are they available for reproduction? Is there a part number for a H code engine? Also, is the Yellow OK stamp available from somewhere? See Red circles...
