    Dimming Illumination for triple gauges

    Hi, I installed water temp, oil pressure, and ammeter gauges in my 71 Grande tonight. I went to install the illumination wires for the gauges by splicing into the air conditioning and heater control box light so that way I can dim the gauges with the dimmer switch. The gauges would not light up...

    After market/ custom grill

    Has anyone seen an after market or made a grill for a 71-73 mustang like the one pictured above? My grill is broken and I don't feel like paying the price for a new repo grill. Might as well make it custom. I was thinking of making one from expanded metal. Let me know what you guys think.

    Driving without shock tower braces

    Hi everyone, I recently discovered that my 71 Grande has suffered from a collision at some point in its life. I found this out when I went to install my stock shock tower braces and the passenger side would not fall into place. The driver side will go in just fine. I took a close look underneath...

    How do you remove the steering column?

    Hey everyone, I am trying to get my steering column out of my 71 grande so I can have room to install a clutch pedal. I can't seem to figure it out. I have the steering wheel off and the coupler is loose. How do you get this thing out?

    MDL T5 swap kit questions

    In the process of ordering parts to do a t5 swap into my 71 Grande. It is currently an automatic. I believe I have everything picked out as it should be except for the fly wheel and clutch. My 302 is stock and no time soon is it going to be pushing more horsepower than close to stock. I have...

    C4 leaking from inspection plate. Repair or replace?

    The C4 in my 71 Grande is leaking from the inspection plate. I believe that it is the front seal. I have never driven the car and it is not in driving condition at the moment so I have no idea what the condition of the transmission is as far as drivability. I have been quoted by two shops with...

    Just bought my first car.

    Hello everyone, my name is Augie. I just recently bought a 1971 Grande with a 302. The guy I bought it from said that his friend pulled the motor out of it and put it in an F-150. Then, the guy I bought it from bought both the car and the truck from him and took the engine back out of the truck...
