    It was 70° this morning after I got home from work, so I figured I would get in some Mustang time. I pulled the valve covers, distributor & spark plugs. I used a cordless drill long 1/4" drive extension & small socket to prime the engine with oil. Timed the engine, re-installed the spark plugs, valve covers & the distributor.

    That is the town square of Georgetown Texas, about 30 north of Austin. They have a early morning car show once a month. Begins around 7:30am... done at 10am. There are shops, and a dinner in the square. IMO one of the best, show and shine car shows around. almost all classic cars and trucks. lets see if this link will work... facebook.com/100000231775626/videos/1286812216027855/

    I hate a$$holes who knowingly sell damaged goods with disclosure. My motor runs best at 18° base timing. I never told anyone cuz it was so high, but reading online about other's timing it is quite common.

    Radiator failure. So, I find out why the man was selling his factory 24" radiator for cheap. It had a cracked lower tank. For along while I've had a leak from the bottom of the radiator and wasn't sure if was the el-cheapo plastic drain cock or the lower hose fititng slightly deformed. The LH torque rod stay always had coolant on it and despite changing hose clamps, tightening them to all get out and cursing it steadily got worse, to the point it hit 90° one day in traffic which it doesn't do normally so I pulled it and sent it off. I could not see where the leak was coming from as that torque bracket was right were the lower hose fitted. The radiator place tells me the bottom tank was cracked. So, buyer beware there's Mustang Brothers out there who don't care and will jack you up as needed as I thought it was a bit too cheap when I bought it. Further confirming my thinking of buy once, buy right, I am now near $1,000 in to this radiator and it has an old core in it. For another 400 bucks or so I would have a brand new core and rebuilt radiator. First run 2 days ago, no leaks, temps only rise sitting in traffic and the fan/s pull it down quickly. It actually takes a long time to come up to 82° and will drop down to about 78-80 driving in winter and we are just coming onto summer here so I'll be interested in seeing how it copes. Still have some chores to fix; Rear brakes are dragging so I need to pull the drums and see if I've goofed and maybe reversed the shoes front to back. And the handbrake is just taking up space, it don't hold the car at all. Clutch cable did stick real bad on a long drive a while back but then cleared but I noticed the other day it was tight again. Not sure what the deal is there. It's got 3 serious layers of heat insulation so is very determined to piss me off. The power steering pump may have a leak as it whines bad when it gets hot. The plan is to loose the current AN fitting which is a screw on one with an olive seal to a welded steel fitting to eliminate all possible leaks. All because the Borgeson mounts are junk and I had to Hot Rod the thing. The steering is not centred so I need to check the side to side number of turns as I've buggered it up on the initial instal. The exhaust drone has beaten me so I am going to get tailpipes made up as it has diff dumps which are awesome in sound but rattle the heck out of the 50+ year old trim and the slack screws that hold said trim on. The worst bit is the Sniper - although tuned and hauls ass it has a real stumble off idle which is annoying so I need to get the tuner to tweak it which hopefully is just more fuel or something. This thing is crazy advanced, 18° at idle, 35°+ driving and I've even seen 40° on it. Not a rattle to be heard but so something is working.

    I did the same for my Sniper handheld. Made up a steel bracket so I can hang my phone off there as well and hung it under the HVAC controls (No console in my poverty pack). Used an old phone mount and the stick on magnet on the handheld. Helps with getting it away from the sun glare during the day. There's some folks making a column mount for the Sniper,

    That is clever and slick! Well done! Consider that idea STOLEN! LOL

    It's the 3.5 inch hand held screen that came with the sniper. I slapped together a magnetic mount, that way I can remove it and stick it in the glove box. It was not going to be a permeant solution, but's it worked out well, and I have not come up better solution! Being magnetic, I can angle it, and move it around easily. I used a round magnet that sticks to a round disc (from a old cell phone mount) and a Keeper MG hand gun magnet from Amazon.

    I saw your pictures and just ordered a set myself. Thank you for the PSA. I have always been disappointed in every set of carpet mats I have bought. These look nice in your car. https://www.ebay.com/itm/134916462214?_nkw=mach+1+floor+mats&itmmeta=01J7EBN007MN66P4HMF2EG50AE&hash=item1f69a5d686:g:5QsAAOSwWVZlu~Eg&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA8HoV3kP08IDx%2BKZ9MfhVJKnBWHB9EDpykXUN0s9HVlLbdv8CS%2Bu7JYFCmECejuTbXq4QLqZ2lKNsaakoTvtfTZw5Z60b4sttYkUFuGwf3jUn6rQCfFFPDQX68TRiS1OL9qB4sA3MfYX3LGRRoFlWBG0gMGVhGrArSHGo%2Fi3MKYnwyp3vxPWpJRxlNsapB4x%2FG9tBzwxy34jimvNhkhVKbn8BUk2vEGUC35aD1iXTc%2BaXJzFRQxlQSFvMUsz45sac5WnSLoJiTMqA14baUCIkOoro8F1gwVFP7ZCmAJTBh3UB%2FqFkbpYIvAzS5dW3ZvZ0lQ%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR6CA1Mu7ZA

    Looks great! Anymore detail on your Holley handheld mount in front of the shifter? Very tidy!

    I have 3 of the GT caps that are on the styled steel wheels, are those the ones you need? I can look in the car tomorrow to see if I have a 4th one. These are the ones I have. Scott Drake C8OZ-1130-C Scott Drake Styled Steel Hub Caps | Summit Racing

    PSA - I took a chance on some ebay floor mats from Turkey. They turned out much better than expected, and arrived with in a week. They are actually cut to correct shape, not a universal shape like my ACC mats. (Acc is the one on the right. ) He also said he can do custom shapes, I need one for my trunk.

    Now that I've figured out how to post pictures... Here are some photos of my Vintage Air install. I also repainted the lower dash. I used Krylon Industrial Semi-Flat Black K01613A07, Zoro.com had the best price. Zoro is the consumer site of Grainger. The glove box had not been painted, but shows the color match.

    Hello all, As the title says im looking for a set of 4 1969 Mustang dog dish/poverty caps. Thanks
  42. Mike65
    Yes, it has the same mounting flange but there is a slosh pan in the tank for the electric fuel pump & the standard fuel sender will not fit properly. Plus, I already have a stock fuel pump & the fuel line to the carb installed.

    First make sure the problem is with the switch. Remove the pad, uninstall switch connectors and use a jumper to test the horn. Sometimes the wire connected to switch copper contacts break, which is easily repaired by resoldering it.
  45. aslanefe
    I think the sender mount for that tank is same as the original sender, so you can replace the sender/pump with a regular sender for your carb application.

    Horn suddenly stopped working. What are the best switches available today?
