My first car was a 69 VW bug that I ran in the woods. My parents wouldn't let me get a dirt bike because they thought that it was to dangerous. I am glad that they never saw me driving the bug :angel: My first street driven car was a 69 VW bug that had been in a fire and needed a engine and...

I just replaced my alternator harness and I learned that I have a 70 AMP system. My vert came with factory air, power top and power windows. I do not have the gauges in the center of the dash. I was lucky since I still have the original alternator. Mike

I am definitely going! I took my 73 to the 45th in Birmingham and I had a great time. Mike

73 H code convertible

It sounds like either the front upper window stop or the rear upper window stop is out of adjustment. if the fron upper window stop is out of adjustment, that will allow the front of the window to travel further while kicking the rear edge of the window backward. How does the front of the...

My daughter is at a soccer camp all week where they have three sessions each day. Yesterday she went thru 8 20oz gatorade bottles. The camp has changed the schedule to make the first session start earlier and they have shortened the afternoon session. The evening session starts at 7:30 PM, so...

I had to replace a lower radiator hose saturday night at a local cruise. I pulled into my stall and a guy walks over and says that I am leaking something. It turns out that my fan belt wore a hole in the hose. Luckly, there was a parts stores across the street that had a lower radiator hose...

Welcome aboard! You have a great looking convertible!

Not mine. It looks like it has a fair amount of usable parts: http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/pts/2431524112.html

I have one that you can have for free just the cost of shipping. I got it as part of a handling kit which included front and rear sway bars. It will not fit with a ramair base. It is simply taking up space. Mike

I am probably going to the All Ford show at Shults Ford in Harmarville on 6/12/11. That show I will not need to walk much. The Greater Pittsburgh Mustang Club (gpmc.org) is organizing the show. My MRI is tomorrow morning. Wish me luck. Mike

I just cancelled my hotel reservation for Carlisle this year. :( I spent my evening last night at the hospital getting xrays of my right knee. I have not gotten the results back yet but my doctor has already ordered an MRI. His evaluation is that I may have broken my kneecap and done some...

Think about what it would cost to replace your car exactly. I have American National Classic Insurance and they required an appraiser to evaluate the car once I stated that I wanted to insure it for more than 20K. The appraiser evaluated my car based on condition, upgrades (drivetrain), and...

I used a product called PeelAway7. It worked pretty good, but I was a mess. The wife took pictures to mess with me. Mike

Hang in there! Don't take this the wrong way. I would love to have your problem. My son turns 16 in 7 days and he should be preparing to get a drivers permit, but he is autistic and he will never drive. Mike

I am running NGK Racing Spark Plugs in my 408. Those are the plugs that my engin builder installed and recommends. His recommendation is based on dyno experience trying various style plugs. I am also running an aftermarket ignition (ICE Ignition) which may be part of the rational for the...

How about the front seat back automatic release when a door is opened. When you open a door the front seat latch automatically releases so the seat back can fold forward. I don't have mine hooked up currently since the mechanism drains my battery.

I think that your numbers are fine. The lower hose temp shows that your radiator is lowering your temp correctly. The 210 thermostat temp means that is the temp coming out of your block. I would not consider that excessive. My engine has a 195 deg thermostat, so after a 50-60 mile trip I...
