Here are a couple pictures of the inner pad attached to the spindle. The first one shows the gap. There is no way to attach the pad to the caliper. The outer pad attaches to the caliper with the usual rods and clips but I'm pretty sure the inner pad must slide into the slot on the spindle and...

It doesn't seem to be a caliper issue because the inner pad is installed on the spindle before the caliper is slipped over the rotor. There doesn't seem to be any adjustment for the inner pad because it slides tightly into a pair of slots so I can't see how anything could be wrong. Well, I did...

I recently hit a snag trying to replace the front pads, calipers, and rotors on my GT/CS. The driver's side fit together perfectly but on the passenger side the caliper won't fit over the rotor. It seems like the rotor assembly is not going far enough on to the spindle because there is a gap...

Previous posts have stated that some or all of the vendors are out of hood pins so you might want to call NPD just to make sure they really have them.

Probably need to post some pictures before we can reply with any certainty

That is correct

Let's say we all live in a perfect world and we could choose any color combination for our Mustangs. What would you choose? I think I'd go with Highland Green exterior (surprise!!!!), black stripes, black vinyl top, and a deluxe saddle interior.

The guy apparently doesn't understand the psychology of auctions. He'd be better off setting the opening bid at $1,000 and letting the bidders outbid each other.

Is there a way to purchase directly from Scott Drake?

I was but someone else already contacted me and bought it, but check eBay they are on there all the time.

Good point. Hmmmmm, maybe there is something to Brokeback Mountain after all.

Someone was looking for a big block radiator a few weeks ago. Here is one on eBay. Don't know if it's the correct year. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NEW-1968-1969-1970-FORD-MUSTANG-390-428CJ-RADIATOR_W0QQitemZ8069697961QQihZ019QQcategoryZ33545QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Wait a minute. When we say "original sheetmetal car" are we talking about original, never been touched, or are we talking about being repaired with NOS? Of course, I'd rather make the repairs with Ford parts over repros but I'd rather have repaired-with-repros over never-been-touched.

Ditto, as long as the repros look right.

This may sound a little odd, but all of you should be used to that by now, but I'd rather have a car with new or repaired rear quarters, floors, and door skins. An original sheetmetal car is most likely going to rust in those areas and I'd rather not spend a ton of money for a car that is going...

Wasn't me either. I don't have that kind of money!!! And I really don't want her driving a 428 anything. Once she did she would be hooked, then we'd all be in trouble.

All of the parts are available through Mustang parts vendors except possibly for the large pad. At least I've never seen a reproduction large pad. I have an extra black one that you can dye. They are also on eBay all the time.

In Fargo this week. Get home Friday.
