I have often seen where the red wire with green stripe has a bad connection at ignition coil (check the terminal), or this wire was damaged somewhere along the path from starter solenoid to ignition switch to ignition coil. There are some wiring diagrams describing this ignition circuit. Use a...

I hope you get relief from your pain, and wish you well in recover

If you buy starter from auto parts store you may be disappointed, typically foreign products. If you have originally equipped starter then find a shop to rebuild it. The cost will be less and you will have better part. Not long ago my alternator failed, I inspected part available at local...

My mustang is occupying my son's extended spring break.  His efforts to patch the rear passenger quarter panel found additional rust in the wheel well.  It is where the right hand rear floor meets the wheel well. A body shop replaced some of the floor panels in the 1990's. If possible I would...

Great, I will keep an eye out too.

I replaced my rear brake line, currently rear-drum but expect it wouldn't be difficult to adapt for disc if needed in the future. https://secure.cougarpartscatalog.com/zin7101-om.html

Nice, I am sure the short ride brought back memories.

They were bough out by Johnson Controls and quality has tanked. I personally have a Sears Diehard battery in my 71 -- no problems.

I used an adhesive when installing my trunk weatherstripping -- done in the 80s.

You may have additional/different hookups for tach, but here is an illustration, i.e., look at the four wires that plug into voltage regulator. The terminals are labeled so you can make proper connections. If you are still not seeing it charge, it may be a electrical problem, use ohm meter to...

Welcome from Oklahoma City!

I had the same experience, replaced battery, alternator and voltage regulator, still not charging. I found some problems with alternator harness (performed temp repair until I work with MidLife on correct alternator harness for my car), but still not charging. Some research revealed the...

Yes, I was surprised when they turned away business. They did do my windshield previously but that was back in the 90's :-)

My windshield needs to be replaced, Safelite doesn't replace any longer. It is hard to find glass shops that will work on older cars, I did get a quote from one local glass shop but told glass is not original. Does anyone have any recommendations on replacement front windshield for a 71? I...

My car spun into a wall wearing Cooper Cobra tires, I pass on Cooper. I am currently using BFG but will consider other options next time I am purchasing tires as the cost is 50 percent higher versus previous tire purchases.

I think that would be the best option, I will PM later and we can work out details on getting the harness from NPD modified. What is the difference between 14305-5A and 14305-6A? I did notice that one of the three plug's wires on my harness is thicker than the others (Black with Orange stripe).
