aah, ok thanks, i will have a crack at that tomorrow....

I've found the part, Scott Drake produce it so i have a fallback option if i break it. http://www.championmustang.com/64%C3%82%C2%BD73-mustang-fuel-line-brake-line-clip-p-3509.html?zenid=faff6614cc48f45926f7601fb8435a6c Still, can't see how to pull it out though...

Here's mine when i removed it today :) pls pm me to let me know if you have one going, would need to be shipped to London UK. thanks.

Sorry for resurrecting an old thread but this is exactly the clip i was trying to remove today and without luck, as I was being careful not to damage the floor. I will have another go tomorrow, but can anyone advise me in simple terms how to remove this clip, it attaches to floor under front...

thanks all... I'll take a look at Rockauto first. Don our paths will no doubt cross at some point :) CJ PP, what can i say, i eventually got what i ordered and you guys would swallow some if you knew how much i spent in total on my last order (shipping plus tax plus import duty plus handling...

hi, i've seen some bad reviews (CJPP etc) on the motor mounts currently on the market. Given I'm in the UK I don't have the luxury of just whipping them back in the post. Was looking to place an order for parts and wanted to see where anyone had purchased motor mounts which were factory spec and...

Pulled the transmission today. Was going well until the rear tipped downwards and a hell of a lot of trans fluid came out. lots of cleaning to do afterwards. This is becoming a build thread now so i will ponder creating a new thread in the right section. I plan to continue with an engine and...

I've ordered some VHT cast iron high temp paint, will use that on the cast iron parts through the restoration. thanks for the insight.

thanks Jeff, do you know what natural means from a judging perspective ? not looking to win any concours events, just wanted to, where opportunities permitted, keep a "natural" factory look, there now you got me saying it.

ok color then... ;) I stripped mine of paint today, it was blue, probably aftermarket as the thickness was 1inch or greater. I put some red oxide primer on it, before i go and paint it wanted to confirm what colour was original factory paint. I was originally going to go with eastwood chassis...

saw this writing on the trans. Does that mean its been rebuilt ? any ideas ?

Well, the engine was finally extracted with little pain today, bit of moving around in the garage but all good and executed to plan. Thanks to everyone who gave me advice, this is a great forum... for some reason i can't upload pics, maybe exceeded limit, will have another go later.... tomorrow...

thanks, some good pointers there. will take note of them all.

ok, i couldn't picture this so looked up and found a vid on youtube showing the access point at front of trans. I have already removed the starter so will go down this route... thanks !

ok folks. Decision has been made. I will take out the engine first, and then transmission. I can rejoin them and install later when everything painted. Question - to separate engine from transmission is it just undoing the bolts on the housing ? anything else i should be aware of ? thanks again...

I was also thinking of removing the front suspension, sway bar and hubs completely and putting some lowered axle stands to give more height and reach to the fenders for engine lift....

ha, we think alike. It's been playing on my mind all week. This weekend is likely judgment day, so will go one of three ways. engine out. engine and trans out. Something gets stuck and nothing gets out :) i was planning on closing the garage door and lifting from the fender side. It is very...

thanks all, this is all good info and I would like to replace fan at some point, is it a priority ? probably not. I did try and search for this topic to avoid reposting, but it appears google does a better filter on searches than the forum as i found more detailed info from an earlier posting...

PM sent.

hi, just wanted confirmation from anyone with a 72 Mach 1 that the below is aftermarket and not an original Ford part. I don't see a Ford or Fomoco logo anywhere. That said, were originals 6 finned like below, or 5 ? I've seen some and can't tell. If it is not an original, I may be interested...
