Trying to dig for some info but unable to find it. I have an original front side marker bezel, but it looks to be missing the 2 studs that thread into it, in order to attach the nut on the inside fender well. Does anyone know the size off the top of their head? It looks to be the same size as...

Few questions for you guys here. As you can see my weather stripping is shot, as well as maybe my window needing an alignment. I have gone on NPD but I am struggling to figure out what this piece is actually called, as well as how to go about replacing it (picture 1). I think these are the links...

Found this browsing around for cars I won't be buying. Under the hood looks fresh but seems like a pretty steep price for a car without the original motor/trans. Later model 302 could be out of anything. https://offerup.com/item/detail/d5bfecbb-caec-3fcf-901d-58377b780910?cid=5.1

I searched through some old threads on here regarding the OEM hood locks but didn’t find what I needed. These came in a bag with the car. I could be wrong but am I only missing the backer plate that goes underneath the locking mechanism?

While I am waiting for the motor and tranny to get back from the machine shop, I figured I would knock out something that has been on the to do list for a while. My hood (not the original one to the car), was covered in surface rust. Saw a YT video of a guy with a nova that had the same problem...

Found this looking for some parts on Marketplace. I am no appraiser but 15k seems quite quite steep. Runs and drives, although only has 2 tires...

Restoration shop was able to tear down my 351 this weekend so figured I would update those that were interested! Tranny is also all cleaned up and rebuilt. I’ve included all the pictures I was sent, as well as the texts I received from the shop. Nothing I didn’t expect to be honest. Could be...

Well after waiting a year to get into the restoration shop, the 73 is finally there. And not without problems. The shop has a tow company that they use and recommended, but after contacting Hagerty, where my insurance is through, they said they provide licensed tow trucks to use. Tow was...

Looking for a little advice. Paint is the last thing on my list for my project since I know it comes with a hefty price tag, and am about to spend about 11k on the motor/tranny rebuild. I met up with a guy this weekend who restored a 66 Hertz, so I was able to pick his brain. I mentioned the...

Well the 73 Mach 1 heads into the shop for a full motor/trans rebuild in the next few weeks. Just waiting on them to get the spot open. Seeing as she was last registered in 2015, I am preparing for them to tell me the front end needs some attention. I already knew this based on looking around...

My DD is a 2005 mustang, with a 5 speed. The only automatic I have ever owned was a 95 grand cherokee, strictly for the snow I dealt with up in flagstaff. For you all that have used Modern Driveline, does this quote look correct? Looking at the flywheel spec, it doesn't have the 351C on there. I...

Found this for sale locally. Body looks to be in good shape....minus the cut quarter panels to fit 33" tires. Hate to see it. I don't knock peoples builds but wtf is this. https://offerup.com/item/detail/d2dfb42e-d98c-30fb-b5f3-888277dfbeb9?q=1973+mustang&cid=5.1

Just got my Marti report back, felt like the longest 5 days ever. So far everything checks out! Can’t verify the 2 tone hood since someone stole it at one point and was replaced with a junkyard one, but everything else matches up. Pretty cool! I still have the original Sanderson Ford key tag...

Found these for sale locally. Apparently taken Out to change the ratios, no more than 1k miles on them. Up for $100. I was going to do 3.5 gears with my rebuild, worth taking a flyer on these?

Probably a simple solution but wanted to ask. My grill is on good shape, besides being greasy on the driver side. I’m going to take it off and give it a good cleaning, much easier than doing it on the car. The plastic has obviously faded and would like to make it look a little better. Anyone...

Tried to search through the forum but couldn’t find the info. The tires my 73 came with are dry rotted and will need to be replaced. Since I’m doing the motor/tranny rebuild soon I’m going to be ordering some tires. They are currently 205 75 R14. Everything I look up says trailer tires. Sticking...

Looking for the opinions from you all who know way more than I do. I apologize for the long post so bear with me. A while back I was chasing what I thought were vacuum leaks/carb problems/ignition/fuel problems. You all were extremely helpful, but in the end it turns out I was attempting to fix...

Hey gents, Kind of torn on what to do here. My 73 needs a motor rebuild, and is currently not running. The FMX trans will also get rebuilt at the same time. My plan was to have enough saved up to have it done by the end of November. As you all know life happens and at 34 I am going to be in the...

Quick question for the group. I have 3 point seat belts that are in great shape. My issue is that the button clip for the lap belt is broken/missing. I saw there was a kit available for a 69-70 with just those pieces, but can't find one for our year. I would hate to have to replace the entire...

Forgive me if this is a dumb question, but the PO switched the driver and passenger seats. Apparently to make the wear even, makes no sense to me. However while I’m waiting for engine rebuild money, I’m doing other small stuff. This is next today. Is it as simple as unbolting them from the frame...
