This popped up on FB, maybe dealer air? I didn't think you could get AC on B351. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/2157191241119276/?ref=search&referral_code=null&referral_story_type=post&tracking=browse_serp%3A61268445-19c4-4e88-b934-228d9a643150

To further your comments on the special paint and your bumpers being chromed: I have heard anecdotally that special paint cars that would otherwise have had the body color front bumper got a chrome one. The reason being that assembly plant body shop would not have been able to handle the special...

Do you have a broken switch or none at all? I remember seeing an article or write-up on repairing them, most times the toggle breaks off and somebody found a cheap donor switch for the toggle, and figured out how to disassemble the defrost switch to replace the toggle.... I remember reading it...

Yes- the bottom two (I think) nuts that hold the center section into the axle housing you can't get a socket on...

Was the tail shaft housing bushing ever changed??? If not, do that otherwise you are chasing your tail. Th driveshaft may or may not need a weight to be balanced. It could be checked for balance while you are changing the bushing. If you are changing the pinion yoke you should check the the...

Glad that you got it figured out, otherwise there was no logical explanation for what you were experiencing!

Glad you got it sorted!

Tony- when you say you have an open crankcase with breathers do you mean you aren't pulling any vacuum on the crankcase? If you aren't I'm curious why. As others have suggested, engine longevity and performance are all based on there being negative pressure in the crankcase. Edit: the above...

I wouldn't worry about this until its a real problem not a theoretical one. Is the oil drain-back issue real or is it an internet problem?

Welcome to the forum, there's a couple of folks here in the Detroit metro area. If you have electrical questions I would start with a post in that forum or send a PM to Midlife as he would know socket PN's and such so you could get some replacements.

If the tag is gone and there's evidence of gasket sealer around the center section then most likely someone's been in there and you have to investigate further to figure out what you have. If there's a driveshaft hooked up to the diff then with both rear wheels off the ground try and rotate one...

I'm not an expert on these cars but have done some research into 429's. If you have not found it yet, a great resource is what we call the Megasite: http://429mustangcougarinfo.50megs.com/ That engine bay looks pretty clean! Is it a CJ or SCJ? I ask because only the SCJ cars (a CJ became an...

Thanks for posting that photo Fabrice! It's tough to know what the end pieces (the ones at the door end of the fender) look like. My Sept. '70-built Mach has one of them left but its broken so I had no idea what to look for!

Looking good and getting closer! I'm curious to see what you decide for the shifter handle. I love the shape of the 70-71 Hurst stick and the TKX shifter stub seems to end up pretty close to where the Hurst socket would be...

My 72 just had rust damage to the area over the heater box also, somebody had already cut an access hole in the upper so that they could shoot expanding foam and tar around the rust to stop it leaking. This is what it looked like after I got all of that mess removed. You could partially...

14x6 and 14x7 trim rings pop-up on Ebay all the time and can be had for $100-$150 for a nice set. 15x7 are very rare and go for at least 10x that (if you are lucky). What size wheels do you have?

Thanks for sharing this!

This sounds like something the guy without a 4-bolt main block would say! As others have said, D2AE-CA is the block casting number, the same block casting could be finish machined as either a 2 bolt or 4 bolt version, so there is no way to know which externally. You could make a semi-educated...
