I believe it was leonardo Davinci who said that "art is never finished, only abandoned". You clearly take after the master, it's great to watch you constantly evolving your car. Looking forward to seeing your latest iteration.

If I can get rolling early enough tomorrow I will pop in.

I too have a leaking fmx that I would like to convert. Please keep us updated.

Nice car, looks great! Just a tip for all you guys shooting your cars, if you want to avoid the wide angle distortion, back up farther away from your car and zoom in with your lens (assuming you have a zoom lens.) Try to be shooting at greater focal length than 50mm. Also try to get even with...

looks very promising. can't wait to see the result.

Dim lights are a common issue on these cars. As John J mentioned the fix a lot of us have done is LEDs, plus replacing the headlight switch. You could replace the voltage regulator that's attached to the back of the cluster while you are there and probably the printed circuit just to be safe...

I also would like to know if you recommend any particular brands. I've personally had good luck with the meguiars ultimate compound and ultimate polish, but only tried it so far by hand. I do have the dual action polisher that comes with the power system kit but have only tried it on small...

With some hesitancy, I would say that my experience with the classic air auto system we installed last summer in my mach 1 was not all roses. In general it's a well thought out system, but there are definitely some issues. The mount for the compressor especially seems like it could be better...

Thanks guys. That's what I needed. This forum is a great resource. I will check and top it off as soon as it warms up a bit. I started with a pan gasket leak and I've had a couple different mechanics try to seal it/get it to be flat and the pan may be fixed now but the transmission is still...

Hey guys. I know the information I need is already out there but google searching has brought me conflicting information, so I thought I'd ask the collective wisdom of the board. I have a 1971 mach 351 Cleveland with an FMX transmission. The trans is of course leaking small drips onto the...

I pulled out the blue diffusers, replaced my headlight switch and swapped out all the bulbs to LEDs and I have great night visibility on my gauges. Jeff73mach1 also has a headlight relay he recommends to take some of the load off the headlight switch. I just use LED headlights.

Not everyone loves the sound of a big V8 engine, so I grant grace when people annoy me in hopes that it is granted back to me. Especially since I also have a ducati with an aftermarket muffler.

super clean. impressive!

I sent you an email. I'm in for one. Glad someone is making them.

I'm really happy with the tach I put in mine to replace the clock and the wiring was very simple. click on tach and then scroll down to mustangs. it looks factory. http://www.rccinnovations.com

I will take that fmx trans pan and I need some other pieces that i don't know what they are called but I think I see them in your picture. I will have to go take a pic of mine... forgive this awful description, but behind my rear seats there's the flat shelf or tray piece that the rear speakers...

Good for you keeping it period correct. A little extra challenging but extra rewarding too. I believe what midlife does is you pull your existing harness out and send it to him and then he sends it back to you cleaned up and refurbed and whatever else you need on it. He is well respected on...

You're probably too far down the road to do this, but I used a modern tach (original face) from Bob at http://www.rccinnovations.com it's $180 if you have the idiot light core still. and it's easy to connect. I think it was power and a wire to my MSD. It works beautifully. It dropped right...

forgive my ignorance but which ones are those?

Thanks guys. I will start poking around. Jeff I think my wife has committed my weekend fully but maybe next weekend. There was a silver Mach 1 today at cars and coffee, was it someone from here?
