    mustang comparison

    Yup, they're close. I've got my 71 in storage next to the wife's new 2013 and it's surprising how big the 2013 is. Still have a couple feet of snow to melt before they come out to play.

    MAKING MAPLE SYRUP

    We had a couple good days of sap flow a couple weeks ago. One of my coworkers makes syrup with his family. They boiled over 4500 gallons of sap already. sugar content was low so it only yielded 55 gallons. Their 3000 trees should really start flowing in a couple weeks. All we need is above...

    nice looking ebay car in NC

    Yes, standard interior was available on Mach 1's. I have a friend who ordered his from the factory in 71. He paid for the go fast stuff (ram air, 4speed). But was too cheap for interior upgrades.

    Anyone ever used a chassis dyno to tune their car???

    I put mine on a chassis dyno after an engine rebuild about 10 years ago. Tuned it great for highest hp but it drove like **** on the street. I went back to the smaller jets so it ran nice on the street.

    i was thinking the other day

    20 years this July. Bought it at Summer Carlisle 1994. (Yes, they had a Summer Carlisle back then.)

    Rim Preference...

    I voted magnums as well but had Keystone Klassics on the 73. They looked awesome. Period correct.

    Is ram-air safe without twist-locks?

    Safe? Absolutely. I've been driving mine around for 20 years with ram air and no twist locks.

    The most egregious "errors" you've seen on a 71-73?

    Some of these "errors" you point out are evident on my car, however, I consider them "choices".

    Body Color Wheels

    My old Copper Metallic 73 convertible had body color rims. The trim rings and dog dish hub caps hid that fact. Sold the car with Keystones, still have the original rims in my garage.

    73 convertible interior quarter panels

    I have a pair of 73 interior quarter panels. I thought I'd see if any of you needed them before I post them on ebay. They are white with scratches and are becoming chalky. Windlace is in nice shape. PM me and make an offer. Shipping might be steep because of the size.

    Iron 351C 4V Intake manifold

    Probably indentical to the one that was on mine. It would be nice to go back to it but I'm not a purist. The Performer I have now works. The f100 I'm working on has priority.

    Intake Manifold Question

    Absolutely no difference in performance between the Edelbrock and stock 4V manifold. Weight savings yes, but performance no. I wish I would have saved my stock intake instead of going to the edelbrock. Save your money.

    1972 transmission leak FMX

    It can be done with the tranny in the car but if you're unfamiliar with the springs and levers in there, don't bother. I had an fmx on my work bench earlier this year and had to reposition the shifter lever to go from a column shift to a floor shift for a truck project. It was simple with no...

    Calling all owners of seat material oddity - no comfort weave or D4 Pinto seat backs

    Here's the info from the 73 convertible I just sold. Build date of 6-19-73 . Vin 3F03F253...... I didn't save any info on the car, so I'm just going on my memory. The trim code was CW. The drivers bottom cover was replaced back in 84 by a previous owner. He told me he had a hell of a time...

    1973 Convertible: Price opinion

    The late production (6-19-73) convertible I just sold had solid vinyl seats when I bought it in 2000. They had the deluxe pattern with the 2 metal trim pieces at the top but the inserts were not knit. I read somewhere that late 73 they were running out of the correct upholstery. I'll see if...

    Why are the 71-73 convertibles the best looking of the classic Mustangs?

    I have my new 2013 parked next to the 71 in my garage for winter storage . You are right about the size. So I looked it up . Every exterior dimension is the same to within an inch or so.
