Cage posted:Anything specific for the transmission I should look for beyond noise/clutch friction? Getting rid of that useless third pedal is a good start.  Actual answer: not really. It will either last the life of your ownership or poo poo the bed rapidly. As Nero Danced posted:Guess this thread is as good as any to ask, and it's kind of on transmission chat now, how are AOD transmissions? Garbage. Either go C4 or 4R70W depending on what body it's in. You can make AODs not suck, but the cost to do so would get you a better transmission to work with.

Elephanthead posted:Has anyone added premium care to a mustang? It seems like cheap prepaid service for a car that will need it. From a sketchy internet dealer of course after purchase. Don't the radios in these break every time? My Mustang has been the most reliable car I've ever owned.

Does the trunk key not work on the door? My 2003 just has the 1 key and it works on both.

Ser Pounce posted:Has anyone used one the full floor pans, transition and trunk kits from Dynacorn? I used the full floor pans for my '67. I doubt you'll be able to use it as a jig as mine had extra material around the edges so you could customize the fit.

Ser Pounce posted:That’s interesting, and I should have expected that, I’ll think I’ll just have to resort to the tram gauge and welding bars into the unibody to help keep its shape. If you need to do them all then you might as well do the full thing since you have to brace the same way regardless. Much easier to run a continuous outside weld than stitch together a bunch of panels and hope nothing flexed.

Rolo posted:Crappy floor pans scare the poo poo out of me. Good luck finding a pre-'79 Mustang that doesn't have that issue. Ser Pounce, I highly recommend you keep looking. While rust is always going to be a thing with early Mustangs, you should try to find a starting point that is more good panels than bad. A few grand more up front is loving worth it, trust me.

The '03 is gone; replaced by a '17 F150 with the little ecoboost. It's pretty hilarious that my truck is noticeably faster than my Mustang. The '67 is in my brother-in-law's resto shop being worked on when he has time. I anticipate its completion sometime near the heat death of the universe.

BigPaddy posted:Aluminum construction is a hell of a thing. A regular cab, short bed, two wheel drive F150 with the 3.5 ecoboost weighs 4050lbs and has 375 horsepower and 470 lb-ft. That's not far off a 2003 Cobra in an F150. What a time to be alive.

So it's looking like the next GT500 will use a 5.2L supercharged engine making somewhere around 760hp, but the best part is that it will be available with an automatic!
