    Sold the 72 :-(

    Well I sold the 72 last weekend.  It went to a guy in Syracuse NY.  He drove down to SC bought it and headed right back.  It was bitter sweet seeing it go but it was for the best.  I just did not have the time, patience and desire to work on it.  I still love the cars since it was like my first...

    Carb recommendations?

    My motor is a .030 over Q code.  I think it has a mild cam.  It does have an edelbrock torque intake.  I've got a 650 dbl pmp Holley on it now however it is not in good shape even after a rebuild.  Its running very rich and the AF mixture screws do very little when adjusted.  Right now they are...

    Dragging restoration of my 72 Q code!

    I'm hoping by posting this it will light a fire under me to get on it.  I bought it 4 years ago not running and sense then I have changed the head gasket, installed a torquer intake and holley 650.  Rebuilt the heater box and gone through the brakes.  The short term goal is to get it drivable...

    Cheaper to replace front fender?

    My front drivers fender has a dent in the side towards the front that has gotten into the body line.  Would I be better off finding a good used fender or get a body man to get the dent out?  Just thinking about cost.  I'm thinking it is going to take a body man several hours to get the dent out...

    Do front and rear windows have to come out for a headliner??

    Does the windshield and back glass have to come out in order to do the headliner?  I'm trying to get the interior finished before painting the car and hate to pull the glass out just to do a headliner.

    Opinion on installing interior before paint

    So now that the car is running I want to get it drivable.  In order to do that I need to put the interior back in.  I don't want to paint the car right now and when I do I'm going to be doing a color change.  I should be able to paint without getting the interior messed up shouldn't I?  Will...

    Backfiring through the carb?

    I got the intake gasket replaced and made sure it doesn't leak.  I put new plug wires on and made sure they were routed to the proper cylinder.  The car idles good but has a miss and a backfire when I rev it up.  Where is the first place to start troubleshooting?  A friend said that a backfire...

    Is my price unreasonable?

    I am still on the fence about selling the car but do have it listed on CL and FB market place.  I originally had it listed for $9850 but lowered it to $9450.  I had a lot of interest the first few days of the add but now no interest at all.  I will keep it before I let it go cheap and not in a...

    Intake sucking air and not in a good way!

    Finally figured out why I'm getting a bad backfire and have a loud whistling sound.  The intake is leaking really bad.  I found it by spraying brake clean around the edges.  I guess I should have used the turkey pan after all and not just those thin gaskets.  I have a set of thick performance...

    Why dont you see more 71-73's?

    At least in my part of the country (SC) you rarely see a 71-73 mustang driving around.  I've seen a couple in rough shape in peoples back yard but nothing on the road.  Is it because of popularity? Lack of numbers left? Average condition being too poor to fix?  Something else?  I don't see many...
