    convt top switch

    You can make one with a piece of pvc and used moto-tool to cut the teeth. Works great. My son saw me do it and replicated it to make his first tool.

    Holley 4160 secondary fuel bowl leak question

    I had the same issue. JB Weld fixed it. That was three years ago and it seems to be holding up well.

    My Mach 1 is 50 Years Old Today 7/5/23

    Happy Birthday from your fraternal twin! My Mach also turned 50 today. Thinking of applying to AARP if I can come up with a good name. Russ Tang just doesn't seem appropriate.

    Both sons learned on manual. Another requirement from Dad.

    Oh my God!

    Home safe. He has beaten the crap out of more vehicles than I can count. He's currently driving my '05 panther platform. It is worse for the wear ;)

    Oh my God!

    I just let my 24 year old son drive the '73 for the first time. He's been jonesing since high school.

    Is the defrost bezel in repop?

    For the knob, search for rear defroster knob replacement. I posted a video several years ago.

    Parts Wanted need a spar tire

    You can also fix the shaft on your existing rear defrost switch relatively cheaply with a repop convertible top switch. Video posted here several years ago.

    Restoration Company Just Dashes (it looks like full interior)

    I posted a video some years ago on how to turn a readily available convertible top switch into a rear defrost switch if you have the old defroster switch. Not too hard and not too expensive.

    71-72-73 Rear Window Defroster Switch

    I have a harness with the indicator light - less switch.  Relay etc are there. Switch connector is missing one side holder so some electrical tape would be needed.  Cheap (?$50 offer) if interested.  PM me for pictures or other questions.

    Repro lens retrofit with Trip Odometer

    Just saw this from a post embedded in a much newer post.  March 2019 - Tester's is still holding up well.  No problems, I stick with my recommendation.

    Recent pics of the gals

    My old high school!   Graduated 36 years ago.  I had my '71 when I was there.  Bought it for $800 in my junior year. If my son ever clears the driveway so that I can get the Mustang out, I'll stalk you again with a similar pic!  Seriously, we must be within a mile or so of each other.  PM me if...

    Mustang wont start!

    My 71 did this occasionally. If I disconnected the positive from the starter and then reconnected it, power would be back. No idea why but it did work.

    2.75:1 rear axle with limited slip?

    2.75, traction loc and a C-6. Yup you can definitely leave two stripes.  My driveway alone proves that with no roll back,  Problem is hitting second on a wet road.  Be ready to correct!

    Rear window defrost glass, switch, and parts

    Sorry,  no.  There was a member in Christiansburg VA (don't remember the screen name) that had one - might be willing to part with it?

    Unusual Black Fragments Found in Engine Head

    Nope. + 1 more on valve seals. They get hard and fall apart. Had the same problem with a 302 years ago. Do make sure you at the very least clear the screen on the oil pump. Its not metal but it will still clog things up.

    What do you think?

    Check out the door panels?  Never seen anything like that before.
