I finally decided to make a progress thread for my car, I've had it 2 and a half years now and figured I've done enough to it to make it "progress thread" worthy. More so doing this to get a tally going on what all I have done and get a ballpark on what I've spent on this thing (I'm sure it'll...

took my car for a drive today for the first time since hub swapping and doing the brake upgrade. Sure felt nice to drive it after 2 months of it sitting! Cobra calipers and rotors, we'll see how long the calipers stay nice and clean.

As some of you know I converted to mustang hubs and put cobra front cobra brakes on my car..well I'm having some issues with the brakes now, I don't believe it has anything to do with the front brakes though, I think it is the rears that are giving me issues. To start with, when I pulled...

I have my hubs all swapped over now and am in the process of putting the brakes together. I have the 13" cobra rotors with the dual piston cobra calipers. Looking at the old caliper compared to the cobras, the flex line fitting looks different from stock caliper to the cobra caliper. Does...

Anyone know off hand what the torque specs are for the front hub 36mm nut? Did a quick search but just want to confirm. Does 188-254 ft/lb sound correct? Also does anyone know if the mark viii front dust caps will fit on a mustang front hub? If not ill have to make a run to the parts store...

So my 1 year and 8 month old radiator has sprung a leak..this time coolant. This radiator has been leaking trans fluid from the fitting since I put it in, no matter how much I tighten the fitting going into the pressed in fitting on the radiator it still leaks, even with thread sealer. I have...

http://daytona.craigslist.org/ctd/4074190543.html How many times has this thing been passed down since you sold it Alex? Wasn't the guy you sold it to trying to sell it for like $3500? Btw sorry just realized I butchered your username in the title.

Done a little searching and I've seen a few different opinions on the procedure. I bought some autolite 764s and a set of new motorcraft plug wires. Just so I get this right, plugs should be gapped at .054-.056, torqued to 7 ft/lbs correct? Also I've seen some say to use antiseize on...

http://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/cto/3963564232.html Looks like a 96 with the script on trunk lid and HIDs, looked up the colors and it looks like charcoal gray? Wonder how many LSCs were made in this color for 96..cool combination, looks like black interior also..and pretty clean!

Skip to 2:47..looks like a chameleon 95 in the background. Probably not many around anymore..wonder if this is the "1bad4.6" guy from LVC that someone recently asked about. BTW that's one cool jeep. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBqzrJlOQi8&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Last week I attempted to call the lady I bought my car from when I was having trouble getting into my trunk to see if by some miracle she ever found any old keys laying around her house for the trunk, (still had her number in my phone as "mark viii lady") buut unfortunately she never answered so...

I took my car out for a drive tonight and on my way home the air bag warning light began blinking and continued to do so the whole way home. I did some google searching and all the posts I could find were about the "code 32" which blinks three times pauses blinks three times and pauses...

As some of you may have read in my other post I have my car at the paint shop, and the other day the guy called me saying my trunk release quit working along with the keyless entry, power door locks and windows and when one of them tried using the button he said it smelled like something was...

Ok so I'm in kind of a pickle right now..I dropped my car car off yesterday at the body shop to get my rear bumper and hood repainted and I got a call today from the shop manager saying there was a problem getting into the trunk. Now since the beginning I've never had a trunk key, original...

http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/cto/3829409464.html Saw the clist ad and called the guy..turns out its located right by me so I went to check it out. Guy says its not a salvage title, bought from auction..not sure why or how many owners it's had..but the car is very clean..interior is...

So since I now have my daily driver I won't be driving the mark as much and for the next 6 months or so it won't be able to be garaged or at least not all the time. When not in use I'm going to have to leave it outside at my parents house in the driveway..luckily there's no trees around but I...

Picked this up 2 days ago. 93 gmc sierra 1500 2wd, swb, 350, auto with 112k miles. It has a little rust here and there but no rot or holes..I might grind it down and POR 15 it to keep it from getting worse. Runs and drives like a dream, bottom of the motor is bone dry no leaks, new...
