I need to do this. Where is it again? Glove box?

 

Nice job Paul. Swissvax concorso I need to get some. It's been on my "to get" list for a long time.

Btw Paul, are you like me where, it's frustrating, when your paint is flawless and swirl free, over time, regardless of how well we take care of out paint, swirls and scratches still occur. I know it's from washing or waxing or dusting or etc. No matter how careful we are, it still scratches. It's a matter of how much it scratches. Even micro fine scratches build up over time . Ugh it sucks

 

Thanks matey. Yep, I know exactly what you mean. This will be my last black car though, it just makes things look so much worse. My daily driver is a silver BMW 330 and it's a breeze to keep looking good. It was washed on Thursday evening and still looks like it's just been done, whereas the Mustang is already attracting dust! As for the holograms and swirls, they are so much harder to detect in silver paint.

The Mustang is a labour of love though and, for an almost 9 year old car, still scrubs up well

 

Looks great Paul. Good job.

 

No, it's in the engine bay behind the battery inside the firewall. You need to remove two tabs and lift up on the plastic molding piece enough to access it. Here's some instructions from CJ Pony parts that are accurate.

I get the filters from a EBay seller - premierairfilters. They are carbon filled.

I just noticed there price went up a couple of bucks since I ordered my second one.

Yours may not be as bad because I know you don't use it as a daily driver.

Hope this helps

 

Thanks sir! I just replaced it in 5 minutes! . I put a wix filter in

 

That will work Was it bad? I've been shocked each time I replace mine (twice now - once per year) how much crap was in there.

 

Yeah it was a tad dirty. 8k miles in almost 3 years?

 

I put about 10,500 miles on mine a year so that's why I'm doing mine yearly.

 

Oh, darnit, I shoulda posted here yesterday.

Well, ok, belatedly, I did this 'today' on Awesome:

(Front, and Rear Lower, Control Arms, Adj. Panhard Bar. MUCH better. Totes worth it.)

 

This. Our course is laid out on a runway, so it is long and narrow with turn arounds at both ends. I use SelectShift and start out in first and pretty quickly shift into second and normally leave it there. Today I tried something different on my third and fourth runs. I shifted into first at the turn arounds for better acceleration and it worked great. I got four runs, all clean and each run faster than the last. Overall I slashed about three second of my time. Had a blast.

 

Took Miss Scarlett to a graduation party. At the party the hostess brings their 10 year old neighbor Sam over to me. The hostess tells he had to meet the owner of the Boss. This kid precedes to talk to me about Bosses, Mustangs and some super cars for the next 45 minutes! He must have said about ten times that HE WILL own a Mustang! The whole conversation and pics on his phone and overall knowledge just warmed my heart! With the younger generation still infused with the love of muscle cars our beloved pony car will gallop on!

 

I drove my Mustang to visit a friend who restores cars (inside and paint outside). He showed me his new "before" project. I don't believe I have seen the pony ornament on the hood before......

 

Thanks matey

 

TT....I agree that your car looks fantastic.

I returned from my road trip that covered southern Germany, Austria, Alps, Italy, Dolomites, Florence, Tuscan villas, The Venus, Real David, Fake David, fountains, guided tours, Rome, gladiators, ruins of empires, crazy italian drivers, no clear rules of the tiny road, language barriers, bad exchange rates, $100 for a half tank of gas, Italian Riviera, boat rides, Mediterranean Sea swimming, the island of Capri, tons of Gold leaf priceless art, wine, grapes, seafood right from the ocean, extraordinary amount of Asian tourists, hat/scarf/trinket peddlers, romance, nudity on almost every public beach, honkers, thumbs up, pompeii, Mt. Vesuvius, History, Priceless memories made with the love of my life for the last 22 years, 1694 miles round trip, and over 1100 pictures just on the Cannon DSLR. All made possible by my trusty Mustang GT. I'm sure I forgot a ton of stuff but I'm hoping to capture it all in my build thread.

 

Just got home, now with the DR's mounted/balanced on the matching SVT rims, instead of the black SVE wheels:







The "before":

 

The green machine.

 

looking good Gabe. Those tires look mean.

The Green Machine, sharp as always

 

Thank you Darren.

 

Hit 500 miles. Only took two weeks...darned rain. Lol
