Can someone validate the manifold paint color? It is "Old Ford Blue DE1621"? Thanks in advance.

I just installed my door weather stripping and had some issues but it turned out well. You want to purchase 3M's weather stripping glue (its in an orange box and is sold at Napa, Kragen, etc.). The 3M product suggests you clean the weather strip (WS) and put a "light first coat on ensuring its...

Thanks. This is a great help and will get me out on the road that much sooner.

I have a 289 v2 w/ AC and I’m having trouble with the vacuum lines both at the front of the motor (distributor & thermostat housing/vacuum tree) & at the rear of the motor (vacuum reservoir & intake manifold). Currently there are 3 lines “capped” and my distributor is a single vacuum distrib...

I like all the ideas however, I would hate to see anyone holding on to "over-stock" but if thats not a problem... I vote for 1, 3, 4, 5, and 6.

I believe the issue may have been with the supplier as my can says "DD" there are not any other numbers or identification on the can. I have requested the correct can from the "help" service and I will let everyone know how it goes. Thanks for the other web site as well.

Looking at the mustang mags out there, I was wondering the general opinion on subscriptions. I have enough frequent flyer miles for a number of mags but wanted to gear my reading to the "classics/60 & 70's". Any feedback and or likes/dislikes would be great. Thanks in advance. Sean

For those of us in the greater N. California we can say there are a number of GT/CS's rolling around. I make sure to track down anyone "new" I see driving one. Also, I ensure the drivers understand just how special these cars are. Great idea about getting out on the road. My CS should be...

I currently manage IT systems and process implementations. Consulting both internal and exernal to 3Com Corp.

Sounds like you got 2 gifts to me. You will have to teach the rest of us how you managed to pull that one off.

I picked my car up from the paint shop and am in the process of assembly. I have run into a problem with some trim pieces that need some attention. Most of the pieces are in good shape but need some elbow grease. I've taken the window trim to a guy here in town (Chrome & Shine guy) and he...

I cannot thank the members of this site enough. With the knowledge and expertise derived from these discussions is not only useful when participating but it’s extremely beneficial for the restoration of a driver (my situation). Paul, a specific thank you for all your hard work and dedication in...

I would be interested in a couple shirts as well.
