Or "indigenous people day" in New Mexico.   Geez,  will it never end?   Ed Raver

A pinion snubber and bracket with the pinion support plate. Price is $90.00. Willing to ship at buyers expense. There are no numbers or anything on the rubber bumper. This one is not pitted at all. Overall  great shape. Local pickup is always welcome. I'm near Albuquerque.  Thanks, Ed Raver ...

Wild guess but you might check the steering box mount bolts. I had this death wobble on a car in my teens and that was it.   Ed Raver

I am 72 and I can remember these cars when they were new. The front end was a little high. I watched an interview with Carroll Shelby years ago, and he didn't like that either. Ed

I let my Wife choose. I had plans for the rest of my life. LOL. Seriously, we chose from a color sheet and then had a small panel painted so we could really tell what we were getting into. It doesn't even have a name but is Martin Senour 59346. A wild red that changes tones in the sun. We...

Please be aware of the potential problems if you should happen to use polyurethane bushings on the strut rods. Its a really bad idea as they have been shown to break during use. I believe I read that they do not flex enough during use. Others will clarify I hope. Ed Raver

Scam Alert!  Ask them where you can "physically" inspect this car. If its near Albuquerque I'll go look at it with a friend who currently owns a 429SCJ and would be abl;e to tell you is this is real. That price is just way too low.  I hope this helps you.  Ed Raver

This is a B-A Street Boss Intake Manifold which allows the use of regular Cleveland heads on a small block Ford. This manifold has the water passages in the front like the regular Cleveland heads. The Boss 302 heads do not have these passages in the front. It is a single 4 barrel dual plane. I...

You can try searchtempest.com and type in "boss". The fewer words the better. Select how far you are willing to go and hang on. Also may I suggest that you consider the best car that you can afford since chasing those impossible to find parts can get very pricey. Ask me how I know? Ed Raver

If that did not make you laugh, you are probably dead.    Thanks for the ammo on my next trip with the wife.   Will she never learn?   Ed Raver

I had a 70 429 4- speed that grabber green color, Ex wife got it. Sighhhh! Ed

The mirror glass assembly is removable by tilting the mirror and removing one phillips head screw. Simple. There is a tutorial on wccc forum which shows how to tighten the passenger side very well. I have done it several times. Not a big deal. Ed Raver

I can't remember what I ordered, but that whole roll of cookie dough was sure tasty.    Ed

You might consider a hydroboost system running off the power steering pump. I had exactly the same problem with my 71 - 429 and that fixed it for sure. Just a thought.  Ed Raver

Hagerty bullied my wife into a 120K value for our 69Boss302. She argued with them but finally agreed and of course that cost more than it should have. The year after that I talked to them and offered to sell it to them for half that price and they could have the extreme profit since the car is...

Sweeeeet!!  I'm officially jealous.  Welcome and please ask any questions you may have. There are alot of very knowledgeable folks on this site.   Ed

Try this. Go to searchtempest.com and search for "mustang convertible" or something similar. The fewer words the better as this is a craigslist thing. It takes a while to go through all the listings but it covers alot of territory.  Ed Raver

I blasted mine off during total restoration of the 71 vert and couldn't care less.   Ed

As a General Contractor, I do metal buildings and houses for a living. My own metal garage building is 40 x 60 and I knew before it was completed that it was too small. The rule of thumb that I discuss with my clients is that you cannot build them too big. Generally works out that way as well...

I ran into the same issue when I changed over to rear disc brakes. I changed it all over to a hydroboost system and now works fine. Ed Raver
