    Just a thread to call out some good results from products we purchase. Hopefully, this can focus on the consumers vs. sellers. And as I've been reminded - please post pictures! I had better than expected results this weekend using Cerakote plastic trim restorer/rejuvenator - or whatever...

    'Carbon fiber' look vinyl standard door panels

    Has anyone installed these door panels. The texture print in the vinyl looks interesting but not sure how they look when installed. I'd love to see a picture if you have one! I had thought about adding some carbon fiber print around my gauge bezels since they need replacement and thought that...

    Rear Speaker Options - concept

    This may not be everyone's cup of tea but I've thinking of what to do for speakers in my Mach1. I don't think I need something over the top but would like to reasonably augment the door and front dash speakers. I was thinking of building 'corner' boxes on each side of the trap door but then...

    Door glass adjustment

    I finished installing the new door and window weatherstriping and see that on my passenger door the window doesn't press firmly against my rear fixed window vertical weatherstrip. There is a small gap. This was an issue both before and after I replaced the weatherstripping. It appears to me...

    EVA backed sound deadener

    I am preparing to install some ACC EVA backed sound deadener and ran into a question. They only sell one kind on their website and don't have much for instructions accept - "install poly side down/paper side up". No video or instructions online to help guide and they close shop at noon on...

    Door panel from Standard to Deluxe

    My door panels have seen better days and I like the look of the deluxe panels. I understand I'll need to lower my door latch. Are there any other gotchas I should be aware of? Is there a vendor of replacement door panels someone would recommend for a 72 Mach? Are there clips I need to add to...

    Any new source of decent rear interior black quarter panels?

    My interior quarter panels are covered in vinyl. They are in bad shape. It seems like the reviews on replacement panels are horrendous so I was wondering if anyone cracked the code in getting a decent aftermarket set? Backup would be to strip the old vinyl and get an upholstery shop to...

    Automatic shifter recommendation

    I'm replacing carpet etc and pulled my shifter bezel off and found a little surprise for me. One of the 4 screw bodies that hold the bezel in place has broken off. First - I'm not sure how to remove the T handle top so that I can work on this lower part or replace it. Second - I don't...

    Speaker door wiring question

    I'm thinking about putting speakers in my doors. I see what looks like the remnants of previous speaker wires under my front quarter panels (white - don't worry, I these will be removed and not reused). What I don't see is a path for speakers to travel from body to door. First question - are...

    Mystery hose - rear

    I have a short hose under the rear body that is about 2 ft long but isn't connected to anything. Perhaps it is the original fuel line? I do have a fuel line and a vapor hose connection so I don't think it is either of these unless you think my fuel line hose was replaced at some point...

    2nd small radiator?

    I have a 2nd small radiator mounted in front (passenger side) of my main radiator. Is this a remnant of prior AC install? I haven't seen it in many engine pictures and no leads in searches but I don't know what it actually is called either.

    351C thread question

    I thought this would be simple - just going to secure down the wire harness that goes from the back to front over the drivers side of the engine. There is an unused threaded hole and I've seen others use this for just this purpose. However - I'm puzzled to what size thread this is. Threaded...

    Speaker mount in side rear quarter panels - '72 Mach1

    After removing my rear quarter panel wall panel there appears to be quite a bit of space for mounting a speaker. Potentially forward facing 4x6"in and/or below the arm rest side-facing maybe 5 or 6" round? I'd go with some plastic panels and reinforce them on the interior so they could let the...

    Lab Seat Belt conversion for front seat

    The 3 point seat belts aren't my fav with the way it hits my body - Can someone point me in the right direction or thread that went with converting the front lap belts? My rear ones are in terrible shape so will replace both while I'm at it. I also will be looking for a decent way to cover the...

    Review mirror - removal and reset

    I'm looking to raise the height of my review mirror. The mirror is in good shape so hoping to reuse it. Any suggestions on how to remove it? My first thought was to get out a hair dryer and loosen up the adhesive but perhaps there is a more direct way to remove and reuse? Thanks!

    Cleaning up parts - recommended method and products?

    As I'm digging in and replacing a few undercarriage parts but I also feel the urge to clean up some parts that I'm keeping or reusing. For example cleaning up my spindle before replacing my drum and brake bracket & calipers. I assume good degreaser and a wire brush but is there a more...

    Cowl vent air chamber

    I was vacuming out my cowl air vent chamber and thought it may be nice to give it a hit of flat black spray paint in the chamber since a person can see it thought the cowl vents. Is this a bad thing to do or something that I should be careful with regarding the type of paint?
