flight96

OK, So I have been following this for a while and I too am considering the LED idea. Do they make a set for the whole car? Tails, markers and front signals? I find the front signal lights on the 69 are very hard for people to see.

Hey All !! Just checking in to see what's new. I still haven't replaced my top yet but I hope to in the coming weeks if I can get my sorry, lazy ass back into the shop !! I am also hoping to get the interior done this spring...Just more $$$$...Damn money pit ! I'm starting to get the itch to take her out for a spin but it's still a little cool out. I like the new site but all my pictures disappeared !! WTF !!?? LOL

LOL...Not yet...Its still sitting in my parts room...I really meant to do it in Feb. but that was overtaken by lazyness :-) ...Now the weather is too nice... But I will get to it...and aligning the fricken windows...soon..

Hey All ! I haven't been back for a while...WOW, a lot of changes !! All the pics are gone in the move I guess....

Thank for the info 69RavenConv....

Hello all ! Its been a long time since I have posted anything. I have been stalking on here a few times. Great to see more of these great cars being saved! I haven't done too much to mine other than drive her. As summer is quickly approaching she will be on the road again very soon. My next project is gonna be the top. I have a new pump I am going to install this weekend and I also have a new top. Just wondering if the top is something I should have an upholstery shop do? I have never done a convertible top before and I would hate to wreck a perfectly good top.

My car runs around 195-200* on a hot day. I have the 190 thermostat installed, original rad and fan. I am wondering what 'normal' temp. is supposed to be? Just for the record I am running a Clevor so the cooling system is different than the 351C.

Nope, that wasn't me. I work on a Military base (Navy), but in Canada. And sorry Cupid, the sister aint your type !!If ya know what I mean....:whistling:

LOL....No but she has a younger one !!!

Ya thats one of my boys ! Gonna have to hide the keys....especially the red one !!!

Im still in shock !!!!

Hey all !! I know this aint a 69 or 70 but look at what my wife got me for our anniversary !!!

I got mine from Branda as well, they fit great, no problems at all.

Im thinking that this may be a job for someone who knows what their doing ? I have many other small jobs I need to do to keep me busy.

Thanks ! I did find the thread with the staples.... So I am not totally crazy...Well at least no one can prove it anyway !

I have them on my Vert as well. Check out my loooong thread (http://www.1969stang.com/mustang/forum/showthread.php?t=5544) It was easy to do. I also got my from Cobranda.

Hello All !! Long time no see !! I haven't been doing much work on the ride for a while but I have been driving her ! So now that winter is here and the rains have started I thought it would be a good time to play some more. I am thinking about replacing the top on the vert. I did do a search but couldn't find much on this. I know Pakrat did his, but I couldn't find any thread... Mind you It may just be wine soaked brain syndrome...:lol:.. Anyhow, Is it a job a person can do on his own or would this be better left to a professional ?? Any info would be greatly appreciated !!

I have a set...Still haven't decided if I am going to use them....They will need to be recovered with your own upholstery...of course :-)... Make me an offer, I may be tempted to sell them.

It was built in October 1968. I am guessing the production # is fairly low. The change over for model years is Sept. of the previous year. ANything built after Sept. is classified as the next madel year.

I have been painting since I was 16 (31 years now...yikes..) and have used many different brand. I find that DuPont was the best for consistency and durability. PPG has some very good stuff as well. Sikkens also has a good line but their price point is pretty high. For my own vehicles I use DuPont. Now if your planning on doing your own spraying you have to keep in mind that most suppliers are moving toward water based systems that require new and expensive equipment. Dupont still has a solvent based product called NASON . Its easy to use and fairly inexpensive.

You are correct !!!

Well gents, I haven't been here much lately, too much work and family stuff going on. The weather here has been so crappy we haven't even had a chance to have a good BBQ, never mind drive the car. But this weekend we finally had a break. Yesterday was sunny and I got to drive the Stang to the golf course and tomorrow I plan on smoking me some baby back ribs. This pic sums up my weekend so far...hopefully tomorrow when the ribs are done I can add another pic...maybe a bikini clad woman... Anyway, after all this whiskey induced rambling...how about posting some good, "It's good to be a man" pics.... Ah...just to make this a really good man weekend...As I type this I'm watch 3:10 to Uma...Nothing like a good duster !!! Have a great summer all !!!

Congrats !!! Great to see your almost done !! Another Clevor on the road :thumbup:. Just a quick question. I am also considering the Powerjection system. Do you know if I would need a different manifold or is it a bolt on type of system. I am getting a little frustrated with always tweaking my Edelbrock carb. Cheers !!!

I also fly, I took my pilots license in 1996...Thus my nick mane 'flight96'. I just have my private license, I do a bit of aerobatic stuff as well. I love to fly !!

I rewired the original radio for an ipod/MP3 player. Works great looks 100% original.
