    Resistance wire

    Hey everybody. I've been looking at the wiring diagram in my Chilton's manual and at the wiring diagrams that are on this website. I'm trying to figure out if the wire that use to go to my old coil is a resistance wire. The reason I'm trying to figure this out is because I changed out my...

    Oil pan question

    Hi All! Recently I cleaned the undercarriage and engine with some Engine Brite. After that, I developed an oil leak at the dipstick tube where it enters the engine. I fixed that easily enough by taking out the tube, removing the old, cracked O ring and running a small bead of high temp. RTV...

    Alternator

    Hello to all, I've got a stupid question. What happens when the alternator craps the bed? I mean, what would the symptoms be if were going bad or just not working at all? Recently, I got underneath the Mustang and scraped as much of the 40 years worth of dirt and crust off the frame and block...

    headlight bezels?

    Did the 71 Mustang come with any kind of bezel surrounding the headlights? I don't have them on mine and I can't remember ever seeing them on other 71's. Was it only the 73's that had them? Thanks

    Looks like it could be a good buy

    Just saw this on craigslist. I don't know what the interior looks like but, if this is a real Mach 1, it might be worth the price. http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/2276045463.html

    convertibles

    While I'm not a convertible guy myself, If I ever was going to buy a convertible of any make or year, it would have to be a 71-73 Mustang. For some reason they just look so bad ass. "Our" body style just lends itself so well to the convertible look. Most convertible cars seem to say chic car but...

    Overheating

    Well, the beast is up and running after the cam swap. She sounds great! The timing might be a little off due to the fact that I can't view the timing pointer. Also, she runs hot when it sits idling for too long. Maybe a fan shroud would help. Any ideas?

    Hi from Denver Colorado

    Hi Everyone, I'm so glad that I was able to find this great site dedicated to 71-73 Mustangs. I acquired a 71 fastback a year ago and have been doing a lot of work on it. It was in bad shape when I purchased it. Holes through the floors, interior was a mess, rusted out quarters (which I havent...
