  1. Current Mach 1 Price Trend?

    One thing that makes this a weird market, is that there's nothing on the market that's getting people to dump the M1s for the next great thing. People were dumping Boss 302s to get into S550 GT350s. That's when I bought my Boss. That market turned around as some felt the Boss to be a better car...
  2. S550 seat choice....am I crazy for not liking the buckets?

    For SN197s, those Recaros are so much better than the stock seats. For the S550 and S650, give me the basic seat. Their Recaros are nothing like their predecessors.
  3. The Manual Transmission Preservation Society

    I enjoy my membership every day I drive to work, and have done so for many, many years. If you don't "get it", then you just don't...
  4. According to the WaPo - The death of the stick shift is almost here

    Strangely enough; Ferrari has introduced a manual gated shifter system fir its automatic, I think it may even have a third pedal and another company is offering a retro fit kit for the C8 to shift its automatic. Since I can afford neither I can only hope Ford continues the proper set up on the...
  5. Help about 5w-20, 5w-30, 5w-40 and 5w-50 oil

    Interestingly GM has an issue with their V8s in their SUV and truck line. If you bring it in and have it inspected and it doesn't require replacement then they change the oil cap and recommendations...from 0W20 to 0W40!!!
  6. Help about 5w-20, 5w-30, 5w-40 and 5w-50 oil

    Use what the cap says. If there is an issue, change brands. My 03 Mach 1 4.6 32V absolutely hates Mobil 1 but thrives on Castrol Edge. Ford does say that 5W30 is recommended for track use, for street use, 5W20. GT350s, Boss 302s, HioPos and Ford GT get a 5W50 recommendation, but have you seen...
  7. Spare Tire for Brembo Brake Applications: $100

    Good info. It's a shame that Ford cant'/won't do the same for their car buyers, even as a option.
  8. 2015 GT350R sells at Mecum Auction for $210K

    Slight change of continuity; found the 66 GT350 conv. photos, as well as the uber-unicorn...the only real Super Snake from 1967:
  9. Motor oil supply tightening up

    Not only is the most popular Ford oil filter in short supply, the FL500, but so is the PF63 AC Delco, which for all purposes is the exact same filter. The NU2Z filter is a replacement for the 500, so there is an out but the new filter is longer. Also, good luck finding ULV transmission fluid...
  10. 2015 GT350R sells at Mecum Auction for $210K

    I agree w/PP001 that the carry over cars are quite special, and carry a value over 'regular' '66s. There is a very good German Mustang website that has a section dedicated to not only the four convertibles but also the two never built from that batch as well as the continuation cars Shelby...
  11. 2015 GT350R sells at Mecum Auction for $210K

    The difference on the 2015s compared to a 2016 and later will mirror the difference between a 1965 and a 1966. The 66s do bring strong money, while the 65s bring extreme money, and pile on even more for an R model in either generations. And none of those came with AC, except the unicorn level 66...
  12. Corvette ZR1 vs. Mustang GTD Track Battle

    Let's do this again when the GTD Competition comes around.
