You are welcome

You should have a switch on the brake pedal. The link below is actually for one of the bushings but has a good picture of all the bushings and how the switch should be installed. https://secure.cougarpartscatalog.com/c5dz-2b129-b.html Make sure all of the bushings are installed or there will be too much space and the switch will not activate. Also can be an issue with the switch that will cause it to not activate. Can be solved with a sheet metal shim where the rod and the switch meet. Note: The switch for manual and powers brakes are different. I’m not sure of the exact difference.

You are in luck. The forum has an excerpt resource that freely shares his knowledge of all things electrical. Just a few post Dow there is a post you should read, “How Alternators Work”. There is also a link in that thread to a google drive with the specific info you are looking for.:

Is this cluster standard, deluxe(black/charcoal) or Mach1(green/blue)? What part of dfw are you located?

A few threads that may be applicable:

Great place for rebuild parts: https://www.afscarbs.com/cobrajet-boss-parts-and-kits Pictures must be hosted elsewhere and image link added to your post:

Once can not decern if the carb is the orig unless they have meticulous maintenance records from new. Best case one can verify if the numbers on the choke airhorn and the metering plates coincide with the correct model carb with an appropriate date code.: https://www.boss302.com/carburetor.php

I drove a 428cj coupe several years ago with manual steering and manual brakes. It was not a big deal at all. Just get it rolling as you turn the wheel. Now I am sure parallel parking would not be the most fun but how often does anyone do that these days.

My Mach1 has an upholstered panel with molded in stitching. I have been told this was cougar only as well. Not sure I believe this but I was not there when the car was built.

Yes!

One day, must get it reassembled and engine built… I enjoy your pictures and updates, on all the forums we frequent. I was searching the Concourse forum last night for taillight wiring harness details and yet another great post with pictures from you. Still have it open in my browser.: https://www.concoursmustang.com/forum/index.php?topic=8210.msg47421#msg47421

I downloaded these from somewhere but do not recall where.: https://ibb.co/N2XHJBd https://ibb.co/72zTw07 https://ibb.co/C2q8TBy

There is no real answer to how many rpm at 70. In my opinion you need to determine at what rpm you engine is comfortable cruising without lugging in high gear. Use that as a guide.

In my opinion the reason for the low participation is a result direct result of the spam. I come to the forum and if i see a bunch of spam I go else where. Thanks to the good people like RPM trying to keep it clean and usable.
