    Sport steering wheel

    Mike Berardi. He only had one. The horn button was broken so I bought a Dennis Carpenter repop and swapped the emblem. They pop up on eBay here and there. 77-78 Mustang II.

    Staggered tire sizes

    Hey everybody. It's time for new tires. I'm having a tough time making up my mind on a front tire size for the Mach 1. Currently it has 235-60r15 front and 255-60r15 rear. I want to do a skinnier tire up front but I can't decide on a 215-65 or a 215-70. The difference is an inch 26" vs 27". Does...

    Rh engine bay wiring

    Hey everyone. I am in process of installing a new set of battery cables and alternator harness and noticed looking at some other engine bays my voltage regulator and junction block are mounted in a different location.

    Head Gaskets Options

He said we can probably mill the block to fix it since the damage isn't too deep. The head is trash. Luckily a customer of his brought a set of Aussie 2v heads...

    Caltracs and Subframe Connectors

    That does look a bit tight, nothing a hammer and careful hands couldn't fix. How does it hook with that setup?

    Caltracs and Subframe Connectors

    Couple issues, hopefully someone can help

    I tried providing a body ground using a cable from the negative post to the fender apron, no change. The gauge will also go full H with just the parking lights on as well. The fuel and oil gauges don't act erractic with the lights on. I will have to do some more testing. My car only has a...
