Hope your sis is OK. Yes, a GT but a fiberglass kit car with a twin turbo SBC. I have a couple pictures on my phone

Here's Dobrostang 2nd66 and me The Rat Pack Video from 2nd66's car.

Thanks for posting that! I was just replacing the courtesy lights under the dash on my 66. They had 631's in. I bought some replacement 631 bulbs. They would not fit. The problem is the new 631 bulbs have a lip on the shell right where it meets the glass. The older 631 bulb doesn't have this...

mike, I don't think the 80's Vics used them. I believe they used a 10x2.5"? I'm pretty sure the axle hub on the Vic is slightly smaller and you need or should have a spacer machined up to center the drum. I do know Opentracker Racing sells a 11x2.25" drum kit. I know SilverbluePB is using them...

A couple years ago I did a big upgrade on my 66's front suspension with tubular control arms, camber kit, adjustable struts and a few other bits. I'm not a professional mechanic or do suspension work normally. So I'm like most guys after rebuilding your suspension, take it to a shop for an...

Yeah, the converter and the pump bushing was shot, those two were the cause.

Mike it must get very tantalizing to get done with the warm weather coming!

Teaser alert

The Toploader was out of a 69 Merc Montego 351W. I swapped the Montego tailshaft for a Mustang tailshaft. I didn't want to use a adapter. One thing I learned from this and my GT40P swap. If you buy a repro block plated, grind the starter hole open before installing the flywheel. I've had to...

I don't know what's going on with the forum but it won't let me make a long post, so I'm breaking it up. The standard pot metal hats and nylon bushing don't hold up too well. I wanted my convertion to last but not only last but to work smoothly. On the pedal hanger I sent it out to Mustang...

I had a good running 302 I took out of a parts car. it had 125K miles, ran well, no knocks or smoke so I put that in thinking it would fix the vibration. Wrong, I had been planning a Toploader swap. Not the best time or conditions to start The front pump bushing and snout on the converter...

Well this is pretty much how my 66 looked about 23 years ago except it didn't have the mid 70's 14x7 500's on. Instead it had Superior chrome basket wheels that were rusty and missing the lock to remove the basket shod with 14" whitewalls. I picked these wheels and tires up at a swap meet. I...

Ooops, sorry I thought I was on the WG post

So, is everyone meeting someplace specific and what time?

Some more info and pictures would be very helpful. My advice at this point is if the car is driveable, drive it and enjoy it. It can get very expensive sending it out to shops for work. No offense but unless you have a convertible or fast back or a very desirable engine such as a 428, you'll be...
