I saw this on Facebook Marketplace. I don't know the car or the seller. Just passing along the ad. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/2030303734127272/ From the seller:

I'm finally getting my HCS on the road again after rebuilding the engine and transmission. And now the brakes pull hard to the right. If I brake slowly it definitely pulls right, but I can easily control it with the steering wheel. But if I slam on the brakes I have to really hang on tight to...

This car is in Paul's 2011 book, but with no info other than VIN and owner name (not sure if that owner is the same as the current seller). But @classicsguy just ordered a Marti report confirming it's a true HCS. See the last attachment to this post. I'm in AZ and normally would be happy to...

I rebuilt my PS pump when I rebuilt my 289 a few months back. the new engine has been in the car and running fine with test drives around the block, but I finally got a chance to install the PS pump yesterday. The problem is the car still feels like it's 100% manual steering. I turned the...

This weekend I rebuilt my front vent windows, replacing the seals, chrome levers and window run weatherstrip. So I thought I've post some photos of the process in case it helps someone in the future. To replace the seal you need to remove the factory rivets holding the division bar to the vent...

Just popped up on eBay, located in Crown Point, Indiana. The description below is from the seller. I don't know the seller or the car; just posting the info: https://www.ebay.com/itm/176726103249?mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&customid=link&campid=5335855451&toolid=20001&mkevt=1

The 2025 CaliforniaSpecial Calendars are now on sale! PLEASE READ: You are buying directly from the printer rather than me ordering them in bulk and then shipping to you. The calendar price is $14.00 + shipping... BUT... the printer sometimes has discounts. I will try to keep this thread...

At the top corners of the grille is a screw that connects the grille to the wide grille molding. The FOMOCO diagram shows keynote "T" which is a "retainer" part # C7ZB-8B249. Does anyone have a photo of that? I'm reassembling my grille and have all the screws and nuts in a baggie, but I don't...

I just want to confirm that there's not supposed to be a gasket between the front fender side marker light housing and the fender itself. There's a gasket behind the lens, but not between light housing and the painted fender, correct? And the bulb is part #1178 in amber, not clear?

It's time to vote for the 2025 wall calendar. Choose your favorite 8 photos. Remember, you only get one chance to vote, so pick your 8 carefully. So you might be asking, if there are going to be 12 winners + 1 cover, why only vote for 8? The answer is to avoid too many ties. With only 15 photos...

Hard to believe, but it's already time to start submitting photos for the next CS.com wall calendar! So here's the official call for entries. Please submit your photo no later than Mon Oct 14, 2024. We'll all vote on the photos and the top 12 will be used. They'll be on sale in time to get...

I'm mostly looking for a sanity check on the number and size of trim clips for the windshield and rear glass. When I took my glass out a year ago I put the clips in 2 ziplock bags clearly labeled "windshield" and "rear glass" but it looks like I have more clips than are needed. It seems very...

For the VIN tag on the passenger's side dash, does the dash pad just slip under the VIN tag or was there a cut out on original dash pads where the VIN tag sits? I'm installing a new dash pad and my original was in such bad shape that it doesn't help me with this question.

So this post may be more for documenting because the question may answer itself as I continue reassembly. But at the moment my rear tail lights work on hazards only. And with only hazards on, only my right taillight works. If I turn on hazards and either turn signal then both taillights blink...

I just wanted to share some progress photos of recovering my seats this weekend. I'm using 1968 upholstery, but 1969 seat frames to get the factory headrests. Original 1969 seats. These were pretty rough with quite a bit of rust on the frame. So I stripped them down, shot them with some rust...

I had rebuilt my 289-2V carb just about 3 months ago when I fired up my freshly rebuilt engine. All new parts including accelerator pump. It's been at the paint shop for most of that time, so has only been started to get it on and off the trailer. And that was a struggle because the engine...

I'm organizing my ziplock bags of parts getting ready for re-assembly, but I've run across some bolts that were mislabeled. Anyone know what these are? I thought the studs w/ nuts on them were maybe the rear quarter panel extension bolts, but they aren't. The studs are smaller diamater and...

It appears the light bulb sockets are not removable from the housing. Can anyone confirm? One of my lenses must have had a leak at some point. The sockets on that side are all corroded and rusted.

I'm looking at stripe kits and there are a few different suppliers that the major Mustang shops carry, and pricing is all over the place, so hard to judge quality. Anyone have experience with any of them? NPD sells kits by "Decal Magic" for $128 -...

When I had my HCS media blasted it looks like the hood got warped a bit. It's not terrible, but In the right light you can see slight indentations in all the spots where there isn't structural frame on the underside. Talking to a paint/bodywork guy, he's suggesting getting a new hood instead of...
