    Trunk torsion rods

    I saw This thread and decided 28 years was long enough to go with a trunk lid that wouldn’t stay open. I watched the video below and he used vice grips at the 14 minute mark and made it look easy. It was. I don’t know if my rods are weak or what but it was quick and easy and the trunk stays...

    Rear window louvers

    Lots of paint chips on that edge of the trunk lid over 28 years of ownership. Nothing a few choice words and touch up paint can’t cure.

    Ram Air Hood spring now available!

    I’ve never had a problem with my non ram air springs holding up my hood.  Even after I added all the ram air parts.

    Differential rebuild; any "while you're at it..." useful suggestions?

    I replaced my 3.25 open with a 3.50 trac loc.  I felt the 351 4v with c6 and stock converter was a dog off the line.  3.50s did liven it up a bit. Definitely replace u joints while the drive shaft is out.  New axle bearings, too.

    Rear window louvers

    Turtle,  Does your trunk hit the bottom louver like mine does?  I’ve seen some with a flat bottom louver to cure that issue.  That’s the one to get.

    Just a peek

    Nothing like fresh paint.   Mines pushing 30 years old now. So jealous. Keep up the good work. Nice seeing another grabber green getting its correct color reapplied.

    1972 351c temp problem not ?

    I had a similar issue a couple years ago.  While driving the temp gauge went to hot.  When I pulled over to check the gauge went to normal.  Drove again and it went hot.  Again, normal while at idle.  Long story short,  I had forgotten to reattach the chassis ground to the fender apron below the...

    160k Mach1

    First thing I noticed was the spoiler as well.  Mounted way to high on the deck lid.    Must be an early VIN with the woodgrain console trim plate?

    Reproduction Dash Trim???

    Looks like a nice piece in the picture.

    Reproduction Dash Trim???

    I'm considering replacing all my dash trim since the chrome edges are peeling or painted silver.  Has anyone bought any of the reproduction pieces?  I'm looking at both left and right dash pieces, the center gauge trim and the console trim from Ohio Mustang.  Just curious about the fit and finish.
