A friend of mine sent me this pic this evening, I feel bad for the poor person who bought this at Mecum and this happened on the trip to their home.😢

The black plastic surround on my trip odometer reset button was white and chalky looking, and I have noticed in other member's dash pics from time to time. I have tried armor-all, and cleaning with polish but nothing seemed to restore it to a nice black finish. I saw it again today when I...

I came across this Sprint for sale while searching on Craigslist Las Vegas. It actually is in Cali, but it was listed on the Las Vegas page. https://losangeles.craigslist.org/sgv/cto/d/rowland-heights-1972-mustang-grande/7708881856.html Is this one a Sprint fastback? It looks like a Sprint...

Hi All, I am starting to restore my rim-blow steering wheel and thought I would ask for advise on the best way to restore the bright metal strip that wraps the rim of the wheel. I would appreciate any ideas you guys might have, I am trying to do it as right as I can so I thought I would ask for...

I am looking to buy a set of shoulder belts for a 1971 Mach 1 that I am restoring. The rest of the seat belts came with the car but nothing for the should belts. I am hoping top find some with the hardware if possible, as I am missing everything for the shoulder belts. Color is not crucial as I...

My lease is up on my 2021 Wrangler Rubicon in 7 days. I ordered my 2024 Rubicon about 8 weeks ago because they told me it would take 6-8 weeks. The UAW calls a partial strike and of course out of the nearly 100 plants they could choose they pick the Toledo Jeep plant. That's where, you guessed...

I have been having trouble with my brakes on my 71 Mach 1 Build. It is a stock front disc brake power brake set up. The pedal just is way too soft and it barely stops. As I am reassembling the car I installed a new master cylinder, rebuilt power booster, all new brake lines, all new brake hoses...

I was looking at a Schwinn bicycles site and saw this poster offered for sale. I thought it was cool that it had two of my interests (I also restore old Schwinn Bicycles) I thought I would post a pic of it.

I had some left over material from adding LED under cabinet lighting in the kitchen so I decided to upgrade my under cabinet lighting in the garage. I figure as blind as I'm getting I need all the light I can get. It turned out well it is much brighter than the 15 year old hockey puck lights I...

Has anyone seen the new Ford truck commercial featuring a white 71-72 Mustang Mach 1? My wife and I were watching the news last night and she says look it's your car and the Ford truck is towing a car trailer with the Mach on it. I thought it was cool that Ford is giving our years some love.

As I mentioned in my restoration thread my roof had been pushed down somewhere in it's past life and it has buckles all around the perimeter and the whole roof seems weak. It has smileys/buckles at all four corners and across the windshield and the center brace was bent down about 1 1/2 inches...

I checked out Shelby American while I was in Vegas, it's only 5 minutes from the rental car return facility for the airport, FYI if you're in town. It was pretty cool, of course you enter and exit through the gift shop (felt like Disney). They offer tours of the assembly area, but I did not...

I was driving around this morning and came up behind this black Boss 351 less than a mile from my house. I don't ever see any 71-73 Mustangs around my neck of the woods (southwest suburbs of Chicago) certainly didn't expect to see a Boss out and about. I'm not sure if it is a true Boss or not...

I was driving around in my Jeep this morning and a song I haven't heard in a long time came on the radio. This song was one of my favorites when I was in high school and I considered it a theme song of sorts for my 73 Mustang Mach 1 at the time. It made me wonder if anyone else had a theme song...

I ordered an air filter from O'Reilly's yesterday because the one I purchased from Rock Auto didn't fit right. I bought an reproduction RAM Air air cleaner assembly from NPD and ordered a filter from Rock Auto and it was about an inch smaller diameter than the lid. It might fit a genuine air...

Does anyone have any detailed pictures of their shift linkage and how it is assembled? I am attempting to connect my shifter rod, lock out rod and down shift link rod in my 71 Mustang 351C FMX. I bought the car with no engine and the FMX on the front seat floor, with boxes of parts that...

I have a MSD Pro-Billet, magnetic trigger, mechanical advance distributor part number 8577 for sale. It was brand new and just installed in my 351C, the only run-time on the distributor is when the engine was run on the Dyno. It is too tall to fit with a Ram Air air cleaner so I need to replace...

I thought it would be fun to post what we got for Christmas that might be related to Mustangs, but not necessarily related to Mustangs. I will start with a gift I received from my daughter-in-law and son. I saw another member posted a link to these on the forum here and I thought it was cool...

Hi All, First off, I'm sorry I originally posted this thread in the concourse section. I am starting the install on the heater hoses and I have a few questions (here is where my lack of Ford experience kicks in). I realized that I do not know the flow pattern between the heater core and the...

Hi All, I am starting the install on the heater hoses and I have a few questions (here is where my lack of Ford experience kicks in). I realized that I do not know the flow pattern between the heater core and the water pump and block ports. Also, I am trying to buy a heater control valve and...
