Is there an "off the shelf" equivalent for the front grill dark titanium?

UHG!!! OK - now I am in another situation. I bought a SD replacement turn signal switch. It has 12 wires - not 10. There is a brown and Yellow/brown wire in addition to the original 10. What do I do with these? The SD part number is c8sz-13341-a. The original switch I have (with a broken...

I bought new wiring and the RH feed is for a convenience group (two pin plug) and not standard gas gauge. Will this matter or will I be ok to use it with a standard gas gauge?

OK - decisions, decisions...I was going to rebuild a 302 that I have (not original motor) for this J code I am working on. I have the correct 302 F heads - although dated in June of 68. Now that I am over budget (no surprise) I wanted to save some $ and thought about buying an Autozone...

OK - the pump that Arlie so generously sent me has a tag for the "F" (Ford) pump and therefore should be metallic teal. I have picked up a rebuilt pump at the local Napa Auto. Three questions for our resident experts: 1) Were teal/Ford pumps used at San Jose? If so... 2) anyone know a ready...

OK - I am stumped a little. My Jim Osborne book doesn't show me what I am looking for - or maybe, I am just not accepting what I see. I am installing the brake pedal bracket/assembly and I expected it to also bolt to the dash. However, the book doesn't show any nuts on the "top" of the dash...

OK - so I am moving onto the AC unit...I am wondering if there were plugs for the firewall where the heater-only box mounted. If so, where do you get them? If not, how did Ford seal the cabin?

Looking for a good set of trim rings for SS wheels...anyone know where to look or have some you are willing to part with?

OK - Getting closer to the end of my rebuild...a couple of questions foe the experienced folk for the j-Code: 1) Do any of the mustang catalog companies offer a dual exhaust package worth buying or should I go to a local shop. My concern with a local shop is their lack of Mustang knowledge...

OK - I have the front end back in and have been torturing myself trying to decide on the steering. It is an original PS car, I have 1.75 complete PS linkage set ups for the car and 2 complete standard steering set-ups. So, this is my problem - I need to get the pump and all brackets for a 302...

Anyone know of a way to test if a head lamp switch is working properly without plugging into a car? I know these don't go bad that easily, but with the cost of all the new wiring I am putting in, I don't want the switch to be the weak link. Thanks!

A few more parts I have found that are AWOL that I need to pick up if any of you have them: Cowl to Dash Support Rod Trunk Latch (I plated mine and the plating process disolved the zinc insert UGH!!) PDB booster to master spacers PDB booster to master rod Fresh Air (LH) vent cable - no splits...

OK - so I found out that my brand new 10 year old tires (nubs still in place) are no good. CRAP...so the guy at BigO is going to sell me some for cost - felt bad for my I guess. Anyway, the bad tires are 215/60R14's. He said that is the stock height (24" tires). I was reading somewhere and...

OK - I have finally finished - I think - the rebuild of my 8" rear-end. I had to chase this a bunch of different ways until I finally figured out what I was doing when setting back lash and case spread. Here are some photos - I included some of the home made bracket for measuring the side...

OK - so I finished prepping the engine compartment and found that I had a few areas that needed additional detailing, so I quickly re-shot some more of the "rust primer" and then shot the black. Here are photos of the finished product. I would like all the reviews I can get on how concours...

OK - so I got the car back from the body shop, started preparing brake lines for install, refurbed my distribution block and proportioning valve, blah, blah, blah and found out that there were a lot of extra holes!!!! 18 to be exact!!! It was just at the body shop and I could have had the pros...

OK - so I was removing the old bearings off the axle and they were stamped FOMOCO and the seals had the oval FOMOCO logo and made with leather seals! Pretty crazy they had't been changed in so long. Anyone know when leather seals stopped being made?

OK - I am going through the carrier on my rear end. I bought the bearing kit to rebuild. I broke down the carrier, and found that the pinion snout has some wear on it. I have used a snout like this on a transmission before, but not sure if this is ok for a third member. The original pilot...

Does anyone know of a dash VIN tag supplier? Mine is corroded beyond recognition. I know that Kevin Marti does door tags, but could not find a dash VIN tag...Thanks!

OK - I am still sand blasting and painting parts...lots and lots of parts. So, I blasted one of the PDB pedal assemblies - I just randomly chose one of the two blasted and painted it today. Then, while moving parts around, I looked at the other PDB pedal assembly and found it was different...
