Is there anyone who sells a rubber kit for the entire car i.e. door/window, boot lid rubbers and seals? After 50 years need them all ...

Replacing the firewall insulation and wondering if there's any asbestos in the original (1973) that we need to worry about?

Can anyone tell me where the 4 points on the tree - see attached - connect to? Pulled this '73 Mach 1 apart 3 years ago and did not photograph this. There needs to be some connection to the FMX transmission in the lower circle. Did search but could not find another thread on this. If I missed...

I'm looking to radically flare my '73 Mach 1's fenders (or guards as we call them here in Oz) - I'm wanting the 'low and wide' look (and before the purists vomit on me, as I have explained elsewhere, this restomod is for me to build my unique one-off, dream muscle car - I'm just starting with a...

Hi All,  Have just discovered that the air vent intake has rusted. See images. It's under some serious sheet metal. Has anyone replaced this vent?  It explains why we have rust limited to the floor pans, as this vent obviously sits proud, so that water does not get inside it. Now it funnels...

Just pulling apart the 351C-2V from my '73 Mach 1. Just wondering which parts needed be kept in the correct numbered order when you're doing a full rebuild. I know it's pretty critical when just doing a partial rebuild i.e. head gasket, but is it so important when you're doing everything (at...

Hi All, just pulled out the engine and trans. The code on the side of the transmission is  D4AP-7008-AA. It's from a 1973 Mach 1 behind a 351C-2V. It's the original gearbox as the car has only done 26,000 miles. From what I can find online, it seems to be an FMX (rather than a 'C' series) -...

Hi Guys, need to replace the upper ball joints which are riveted in - there's some long-term thinking there!! So looks like we need to drill them out, to get drill access looks like we have to swing the spring/shock assembly inwards and at this point we can't get these lower bolt heads to budge...

Hi Guys, looking to air suspend my 73 Mach 1. Have searched the suspension forum but can't find a thread, which can't be right, someone must have done it! Please point me in the right direction. If not who has done this? Which system? Cost? Issues? Thanks in advance.

Pulling down my 73 Mach 1 and we found this plate on the radiator bulkhead on the LHS behind the radiator overflow bottle. I presume this is the ID plate for the chassis/body? Which brings me to my next Q: In a matching numbers car how many different numbers are there to match ... just engine...

As a new owner and from having a phone chat to one of the other Aussie forum members (shout out to Austin Vert / Greg) it appears that there is no thread just for Aussies.   We have some unique challenges e.g. managing freight costs/tax with importing parts and discussing the various suppliers...

Hi All, Greetings from Oz.  A few months into a full resto, having just finished an MGB for my kids to drive when they come home - yes blatant bribery. Never having had a Mustang before I will have lots of questions - just warning! I will try and search existing threads first though. Keen to...
