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.

I’m a Motorcraft battery fan.

Longtime buddy of mine owned and ran a small powder coating shop. Equipment ran only on the weekends so was not over worked by any means. Had 2 IR compressors, not sure of models, purchased new and had troubles with from day one. Not great quality in my book.

Her69fasback, I recommend researching the IR, especially those sources for Tractor Supply. Seems they sell a lesser quality through the outlets such as Tractor Supply. My friend and body guy bought a new unit from tractor supply 2 years ago and has had the motor replaced within the first year under warranty. I just replaced the motor for him yesterday, third motor in just over two. Model: Ts4n5 Bob, Great to hear yours is chugging along nicely!

I like it when it is something easy!

Contact Peter and see if by chance he has one is stock. Hopefully he will be able to fix you up. http://thecoralsnake.com/ coralsnake68@hotmail.com Mike

You replied on vmf indicating you would look too to see what you had. I posted this request on a couple of forums in order to get the most exposure. I appreciate you taking the time. I must have been half asleep as I posted this in the cars not parts wanted section… I am interested in the 3 clips in the first image. Let me know how much you want for them and how you would like funds sent. Thanks again, Mike

As the title says I’m looking for a unicorn. But I would settle for a few complete clips, or even singles. I do not need the bracket that screws to the body, just the clip and its base. These were reproduced at one time but are now unavailable without buying the upper trim panel as well. Here are a couple of example pictures:

Unable to see the image.

Still seems high to me at $7500, with drivetrain. But I may be out of touch on the post Covid prices.

That car is pretty rough from the pictures. I would def go look at it before working any deal. I think your going to find it is worse than the pictures, they really don’t show much. My car was a solid car to start with. I did not need to get into the structure to repair rust. However, it had previous crash damage that took a bit of work. Fortunately I purchased for a great price long before skyrocketing prices in the last few years. It is out of paint now and I’m going to have quite a bit of $ and effort in it before I’m driving. All this to say you should buy the best car you can find, period. You will thank yourself later!

Agreed, I have 2 I should be disposing of….

I like Blair they cut well but there is a learning curve. Couple of things to note, 1) run them at low speed, 2) don’t wobble your drill or you will break the teeth off. I like to center drill with a small bit in order to keep it from walking and breaking the teeth. Some opinions you did not ask for…. Be selective what you drill with a spotted cutter vs drilling straight through or just grinding away. It will save time & save cutter bits.

Not everything your looking for but a few pictures at least.: https://www.motortrend.com/how-to/30220-clevor-engine/photos/

While I agree it is/was nice to post directly It’s really not a huge deal, especially from a mobile device.:
