You need leaf springs...your Stang sags.

[jmaffione]

@galactusz I have new leaf springs... i need to install them! The car was an inline 6 and still has the weaker springs. I bought v8-style springs and need to put them in. thanks!

[001GenLee]

Even though i grew up on watching Dukes and the General Lee, i love the classic Mustangs as well. I'd like to have one , one day sitting next to my General Lee. They did use a few Mustangs on Dukes of Hazzard too. Uncle Jesse had one he called Black Tilly that he raced.

[jmaffione]

i'll give that a thumbs up!

@jmaffione what kind of gauges are those man

[jmaffione]

@rydon100 auto meter gauges from summit. see "auto meter 1420 - auto meter designer black series analog gauge kits " (part # ATM-1420) on the summit website

[MrMcNA5TY]

That interior is insane! very nice!

[jmaffione]

thanks!

[mobsterbillyjoe]

the way you turned it on is soo sweet man, what is that?

[jmaffione]

Thanks! I believe I got all of those switches at Pep Boys. The big orange/red "key" is a battery kill-switch. The flip-up one is a normal toggle switch that comes with a cover, and the starter button is a heavy duty push button type switch. the toggle and the push basically replace the different "positions" you would turn a key through when starting a normal car.

[mobsterbillyjoe]

thanks

[garrett65stang]

where did you get the bezel for the gauges?

[jmaffione]

auto meter gauges from summit racing (the bezels come with the gauges)

[garrett65stang]

im talkin about the thing thats holding the gauges, the thing thats attached to the dash itself,the silver thing

[jmaffione]

ahh ok, I made that. The original gauge cluster is plastic and is raised up around each original gauge. I ground down any raised areas leaving only the curved base (with a lot of holes). I then cut and laid in layers of thin aluminum to fit the contour. then i cut holes for the new gauges, buffed the aluminum with a sander, and then sprayed it with clear coat.

[garrett65stang]

Thank You

[sidescrollin]

wow fix the idle instead of the interior.

[samwattele]

Great car!

But why is idle so high?

[jmaffione]

I think that's the electric choke, the idle kicks down once the cars been running for a few minutes...
