    Seat Difficulties

    How close to OE are these? My driver's seat is starting to show wear in my 98. Ive been on the fence, either try TMI or find a nice set of recaros. I have them in my FoST and they've kinda grown on me. But prefer the OE look on the Cobra. Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk

    Opinions on cosmetic changes

    CY is a bitch to paint. Hopefully they don't blend your fenders and not tell you. I sprayed a saleen wing for mine a few months back and while it matches in the light, still not happy with it in the shop. Make sure you look at it in the sun as well as in the shop, check your fog light holes...

    Question for SVTP

    My girlfriend had an interaction today at my loft that I'm not quite sure how to handle. Her car was at my job, along with her keys so I had to buzz her in. So she called me, (I'm at work) and I buzzed her in. There are two doors that unlock once buzzed in. As she went through the first door...

    Still fighting overheating

    Since I purchased this car, I've fought over heating. The culprit has to be the intercooler blocking air flow to the radiator. Fans are set to come on sooner, fluidyne radiator, lower temp thermostat. Coolant additive. Not sure what else to try. Would a cowl hood help? Ideas on...

    Used Vortech value?

    Looking to upgrade from my T-trim. I'd be selling just the supercharger itself and pulleys that i have. Car has 53k miles on it. Dunno at what point it was installed. But everything seems in working order. I don't even know where to start as far as value. Any ideas? I actually may have a...

    Max Coolant Temp?

    What's the highest temp you'd feel safe running? The car doesn't take much to get to 210 and I'm doing everything I can to keep it on the road this time. So just want to be cautious

    Console swap paint?

    Have a console out of a 03/04. Was going to toss it in my 98. But not sure which color to paint it. I haven't seen a definitive post about what someone used to match the OEM black. So what'd you use and can you post a pic?

    Hardwood floor cleaner and wax

    Just moved into an old loft that has heart of pine flooring. My old place had laminate hardwoods through the heavily trafficked areas. So I'd just toss some Mr clean and mop away or steam clean them. These though, much nicer than what I'm used to, any suggestions?

    Mortgage free and looking to move

    I recently paid off my house, I'm looking to get the hell out of Dallas, Ga. I work for a large chain with locations across the US and into Canada. I wouldn't want to change companies so I'm limited to where I can go based off those locations. Right now I'm looking at Seattle, Phoenix or...

    Beer Enthusiast Swap?

    With so many microbreweries its sometimes difficult to try ones that are across the country. Recently a friend told me about a brew he'd heard about in a magazine: T.R.E.A.T. Imperial Chocolate Pumpkin Porter But being that its brewed in AK, it isn't readily available here in GA...

    Filled and Smoothed Double Din Radio Bezel

    I know a couple of the people here have switched to the newer DD bezel. I finally got around to picking one up. It was delivered yesterday so I took it to work today and played around with it some. Most of us don't have a use for the buttons at the bottom and the one I purchased came without...

    When is a car good enough for a show?

    I've taken my cobra to shows, but never my Fairlane. Its a clean car, but the paint is no where near 100%. It has trash and dry spray etc. Its all one color and looks great from 10 ft. But up close, you can tell the age of the resto. People pull up at stop lights all the time and compliment it...

    How original would you keep it?

    I picked up a 62 Fairlane a couple weeks ago to DD. Its about as base as they come. 170 I6, 3 speed on the tree. Radio delete, one speed wipers, and bench seat. The car has made it 51 years without a radio, no antenna hole, nothing. I thought about putting a hidden radio or a factory style...

    What makes a transmission gear non-synchronized?

    Someone mind explaining this to me? I have two transmissions that have non synchronized first gears, meaning you have to be at a stop before shifting into them. Im about to do a rebuild on one of them and it got me thinking on how it works.

    Painted a Friends Boat

    My buddy hit me up asking if I'd paint a boat mid last year. I said sure, not really thinking he'd purchase one. Well then he calls me up saying he's going to look at this boat, do I want to come with. So we go and look at the boat and he ends up purchasing it. Now I see the wreck of a boat it...
