Hello all, I have some rust on the roof of my 1990 5.0 and upon further inspection found this hole that im unfamiliar with. Do these cars come with this small hole in the roof or is that something a previous owner may have done? Also, why would someone drill a hole in that spot and if it comes...

Hi, I'm trying to decide whether to completely restore the air filter cover of my Candyapple red 1968 289 Sprint B, taking off the paint etcetera, or to stabilize the bits of rust on there and keep the look of it as original as possible. Except for a few bits on the interior and the exhaust the...

I have a 2011 Mustang V6 with 25, 000 miles. Garage kept but is driven in Chicago area winter some. I have a spot of rust appearing by the gas cap filler door. I also have the hood problem as well with bubbling paint. The hood seems a little easier to deal with although that is also a...

Hello Everyone, I'm new to this forum, but I've always read forums in the past. I just purchased an '89 LX 5.0 last Thursday. I bought it knowing I had to do some work to it, but had thought that it was a road ready project. That's not the case. I brought it to be inspected this week and the...

When it rains, it leaks water down the sides by the kick panels (I had to avoid buying kick panel speakers because the water would ruin them) and it soaks my inside. I have the cover over the vent on the hood. What would be a fix ? Could it be a windshield leak? Or still the fresh air vents...

I just bought my first car, a 1968 Mustang coupe and there are a few things I need to do before I can even put it on the road. This will be my daily driver but first I need to replace/ fix the top (it is rusted through in many places esp. the channel where the windshield should fit). So if...

Hello all, I recently started working rust found on the roof of my mustang. I worked on 1/4 of it and got it to bare metal, used some rust Dissolver to remove any remaining rust areas, and sprayed some red iron oxide to prevent rust from coming back and was looking to continue on with this...

I am restoring a 78 Mustang II. The exterior, including the paint is really good, but there are rust holes from the front to the rear on the inside floor. I mean one of them is over 1 foot long and 2-3 inches wide so that you can see the frame. The frame isn't even touching on the driver side...

So today I found out that the indoor place I was planning on storing my car has no room, and being a broke college student it will be parked outside my house. I live in Vermont and some winters can get really bad. Right now I have it parked on wooden blocks. Should I use or not use a car...

Hey All, Newbie here! And I am not a "car person" (yet). I have been looking at a 1965 fastback for sale from a restorer. He restored the car. He is a "well know" Shelby restorer for over 30 years. He also takes on other projects where he thinks he can make some money, like the car I am looking...

The top where the windshield meets the frame is rusting and my auto body shop says they wont be able to fix it, that the frame will have to be replaced. So where can I find one? I really hate to go used and the shop found one online, however I can not for the life of me find one myself, has...

Like a lot of old mustangs my fresh air vents leak when I wash the car, etc. I have to do a lot of work removing panels and such to get to the leak. I was wondering if anyone could give me instructions and possibly directions to a product that will fix the problem with relatively little cost...

I have a 90 mustang lx vert and it is rusting on the piece in front of the rear bumper under the molding on the drivers side. I was thinking about getting an aftermarket bumper that goes over it like the cobra bumper but i kind of like the way it looks with the lx stuff and it has no wing so i...

As some of you may know I just posted a reply in regards to having my lowering springs looked at again. To my surprise the owner of the shop alerted me of some serious rust going on under my car! It looks as if the whole rear axle as well as rear differential is completely rusted in color. I...

Almost a year ago i purchased Scott Drake Hood Pins from cj pony parts. They have been rusted for a while now & of course they are doing nothing but getting worse. It really looks horrible and i need this fixed by the end of the month for a car show.... Does any one know if the company would...
