    Ready for the 2012 Classic car show

    I slipped away from my normal mustang restore, because it was a really good deal, and bought this 1982 Corvette Collectors Edition needing some TLC. Now I'm done and after I enter it in the Dodge City Days Classic Car Show this Saturday I will put it up for trade on a good mustang.

    Repairing a stripped starter bolt?

    Well now I know why my starter went wacky so quick seems my top/upper starter bolt is stripped. My nephew put my last starter on but I remember I felt it had problems with the original starter grinding like it was loose. I tried a new starter bolt just a tad longer, but it did no good. Now how...

    OK just what does label this mean?

    I'm feeling really stupid here but I'm drawing a blank on what this diagram means. My starter is grinding so I pulled it out. I just put a new one on this summer. I noticed this label and that my bolts don't seem to fit what it is saying. Here is a picture of the label and one of the bolts that...

    My 66 coupe so far

    OK I have been working on my 66 coupe trying to get it ready to sell. My plan is to make some money on this project to get my 73 Mach 1 work done. I bought the 1966 coupe and a donor 66 coupe as the good one was missing some front end parts. The good one is a C code with a newly rebuilt(never...

    73 shock tower/export brace supplier?

    Why are the shock tower export braces for the 1973 mustang not offered by any suppliers? I looked at every mustang parts house and found non listed for the 73. I found 1 used one on eBay.

    Actual mileage?

    I put this thread in the Other Years of Mustangs because I felt it applied to all mustangs. OK, the whole "actual mileage" thing. How do we truly know what the actual mileage is? I've owned several mustangs that the title could have been used to imply actual mileage as super low simply because...

    Speaking of stripes

    I've seen pictures of what my 1973 Mach 1 originally might have looked like, but, why would my rear valance be black?

    Just couldn't pass it up(picture heavy)

    I have been kicking around the idea of buying another one of those shed mustangs for over a month now, but I just couldn't pass this one up. It was the one that drew me to them in the first place but ended up buying the 64 1/2 convertible. I kept going back and taking pictures, decoding the data...

    Made a trip to the pony shed(picture heavy)

    So the story goes that a local garbageman had for years found old classics, mostly mustangs, in peoples back yards, barns sheds and bought them only to stash them away himself. He became very rich and passed away some years back and now his family is selling off his stash. I went to school with...

    Repairing my fuel line questions

    Gotta love when one fix leads to another. I was addressing mexhaustst issue that my 3" Flowmaster system ends at the rear axle, and looking to see what I can do to extend it out the rear where it should be. On the left(drivers side) I'm looking at how to close the pipe will run to the fuel tank...

    Question on correct color scheme again.

    In the end it will be my preference that will determine what color scheme I choose for my pony, but I'd like to know what it looked like originally and get as close as possible, within my likes of course. Right now I have a question on my trim color. The NASA hood has been painted in black but...

    Hows this difference in low/average/high retail work?

    Now I realize that the true value of any car, or anything else for that fact, is what someone is willing to pay. That being said, I usually use NADAGUIDES to get a rough idea of a cars value but I've always been a little confused as to how they figure the difference between Low, Average and High...

    Call me crazy?

    I've always liked the body style of the bigger 1971-1973 mustang. I sold a 1964 1/2 convertible to buy my current 1973 Mach 1. The people I had bought the 64 1/2 convertible from had 9 mustangs they were selling which one was a 1967 fastback C code with a new paint job. O shot them an offer of...

    Another question about rear gears

    OK so I'm pretty sure I've got some type of locker rear end. I want to take it back to stock which was 3.25 Trac-Loc. What all would I need to get to get back to stock? When I had 3.73's put in my 1995 GT convertible all I had to buy was the ring and pinion gear, besides that what else would I...

    Blower motor works on high only

    Now I've run into this problem before but darned if I can remember what causes it. The heater blower motor works on high but nothing on the lower speeds. Also, I noticed I had 2 fuses missing from my fuse box under the dash one was the heater(14A) and the other was courtesy lamps(14A). I put...
