    71-73 fastback body only

    I know this might be a long shot but I'm interested in purchasing a 71-73 fastback body. No drivetrain, no glass, no front end, no doors, no interior. You get the picture, just the shell. Must be mostly rust free and mostly dent free. I have a trailer and will travel up to 400 miles to get it...

    2 Million Bikers to DC Ride

    I had many friends who participated in the ride yesterday. I unfortunately was not able to make the run. Found out that not only did their permit get turned down, but a Muslim supporting group got their permit approved to march in d.c. yesterday. I'll keep my opinion to myself but there is...

    Does anyone else ride?

    I've been riding Harley's since 2003. I've had a low rider, street glide, custom chopper and now a heritage softail. Looking to buy a road glide custom next year.

    72 Mustang from Gas Monkey on Ebay

    Two things I noticed right away besides what everyone else has said. 1. Do they really not know how to spell "convertible" in their listing header hahahaha. 2. Didn't anyone else notice that the passenger seat is leaning farther back than the drivers seat? Looks like a broken seat frame to me.

    What is your "one that got away" story?

    Hahaha calypso coral seems to be the appropriate color terminology for what I was trying to describe. This happened back in 93 so I'm relying on my memory and my memory isnt like it used to be haha

    What is your "one that got away" story?

    For me it was a numbers matching 1970 boss 302. I was a private first class in the united states army stationed at Carlisle barracks, pa. While working guard duty at the main gate, I befriended quite a few officers and enlisted soldiers. One in particular was a lt. Colonel who religiously drove...

    Thumpr 279TH7 Cam issues

    What stall is your converter? Definitely sounds like a torque converter issue. That's not really a "big" cam. Although I would also recommend a vacuum canister if you're planning on running power brakes.

    9" nodular rear axle what's it worth?

    Unfortunately the tag is long gone, that was the first thing I went to look for. He did say it came from a non a/c car w a 4 speed. At least the guy had enough sense to keep the rear indoors and out of the weather. I'm gonna try to see if I can find any original paint markings before I...

    Rebuilding engine

    From my experience, shop around for a reputable machine shop to handle rebuilding your bottom end. New pistons, rings, bearings, timing chain, and oil pump along with all the appropriate gaskets and seals. I personally like the edelbrock power packages. It's dyno proven performance and it takes...

    9" nodular rear axle what's it worth?

    Thanks guys for the info. I ended up meeting that guy after work today and I bought it. It is a 31 spline nodular 9" with 4.11 gear and traction loc posi. It has the correct pinion snubber on it and it appears that it has the Daytona pinion support. The story is that it came out of a 71 429 ram...

    9" nodular rear axle what's it worth?

    There is a guy locally selling a nodular 9" posi rear drum to drum for $400. It came out of a 71 429 Mach 1 with a/c (I asked). I assume it has 3.25 gears because of the a/c. He didn't know the ratio and didn't know if it had 31 spline axles but he's gonna check and call me later. Does it sound...

    F150 Pick-up's - Who owns one?

    Congrats on the truck, hope it brings many faithful miles to you! I have a 2005 f250 4 door 4x4 with a powerstroke and I absolutely love my truck. Probably as much as I love my Mach 1. Great quality and super tough! Good luck to you on yours!

    Opinions needed

    IMO, the original matte black hood treatment is super sexy on these cars but I can see your concern about the care and upkeep. If you look in the paint section of 429mustangcougarinfo.com it will explain in detail the paint, reducer, thinner mixture to get it right. Hope that helps. Good luck.

    Fender Lip

    A long time ago when I owned my 70 Mach 1, I had the same problem with bigger tires. I took a baseball bat and placed it on the tire, had a friend SLOWLY drive my car forward while I held the bat to the tire. It rolled the fender lip enough to clear the tire rub and didn't damage the body. Might...
