so tim was talking to the local body shop.  And they suggested screwing/rivoting in the floor pans and using a metal grade epoxy to make the "weld".  I can't imagine this is the same or better than welding.  Has anyone ever done this and is it safe?  Will it pass inspection, etc.... (I don't...

I figured I'd start with you guys.  Here is what we know we need so far mach 1 grill (guy painted the grill very poorly that is in this one, so we figured go ahead and remove it and put the one we want in) Long center console 2 front seats and tracks will need 2 doors at some point. seat...

eyeing up the engine and transmission in this one.  Is it worth it for a parts car?  (hoping center gauges, console, grill, and seats can all be used with some work). https://columbus.craigslist.org/pts/6004160676.html

posting for hubby. The car came with a 302 out of a 74 maverick (we think from the numbers).  It ran, but was puffing a little smoke.  So hubby got to tearing into it.  This is looking down into the intake.  We're thinking this isn't good. lol.  Is there a way to clean, or are we looking at a...

Well, since we've ripped out the interior and started the process by ordering the floor pans, I thought I'd start a build thread. We will be learning a lot along the way. Hubby has the carb torn apart and we are underway. Here's some pics of what we are starting with. You all have been great...

Are the assembly manuals a good tool to have.  We have no idea what is original on this car, or what it should have.  Does the assembly manual also give you part numbers or at least a description so you can try to find the part?

Definitely not the original seats (or motor, numbers show for a 74 maverick). But back to seats first. What kind of seats should I be looking for and where do I look?? Craigslist the best place? Also thinking about going to a manual shift. What should we be looking for and how much work is it?

I have one happy hubby. Car doesn't look too bad. Of course it needs work, but he said u did good. :-)

So nothing is working out as planned. Lol.  Of course it wouldn't.  Everyone that was supposed to help me get the car bailed on me.  So, I've made a scavenger hunt for the hubby to find the info on the car.  We will then go together on Wednesday to pick it up. In the mean time, I just received...

Do we have anyone here in the atlanta area that would look at this car for me. I'd love to get a hands on opinion before I buy it. http://atlanta.craigslist.org/nat/cto/5976114933.html

what's the best way to decode a vin number? 2f05H128131

I keep coming back to this one. I know this one is going to take a little work, but I think hubby could make it look really nice. I've asked for additional info on floors, trunk and VIN. But it's the right price for what I wanted to spend right now. Is the 302 engine ok? I know he can make...

Anyone in the Tucson area want to go check out a car for me? I'm in Pennsylvania and it looks solid, but I would like some hands on the ground if possible?

Hi all, I want to start this off by saying I have no knowledge of the older mustangs at all. However, my husband came across a car that he would like to get and work on with our 3 boys (13, 10 and 6). He knows a lot about cars and would be capable of a rebuild. The other last piece of info is...
