1968 Mustang - Smog plugs, Brakes and Rotors, Radiator/ Hoses Install - Part 1
In this video we're getting closer for the first start since the engine was rebuilt in 2010. Then I find out I dont have to break in the cam because the engine is a roller 302, but I still have to seat the piston rings as soon as possible after first starting up the car, but the brake lines and power steering lines need attention...

Просмотров 526Год назад
This is the first time I change the oil in my new to me 2012 Mustang GT/CS. I've only had my Stang for about 5 months now. I've done many oil changes in previously owned cars but this is the first on this beauty!
1968 Mustang - Power Steering Bracket on Roller 302/ 2K Clear Paint on Engine Parts
Просмотров 517Год назад
In this video I'm adding spacers to correctly align the power steering pump bracket pulley with the rest of the pulleys off of my 289 which are now on the roller 302. I also painted the intake manifold and valve covers with Ford blue and finished them off with automotive 2K clear. Then I noticed I should drain the oil and take down the pan...

My 1968 Mustang Pitman Arm and Gear Box Removal and Install.
Просмотров 3,2 тыс.Год назад
Removing and installing a new (to me) 1968 Mustang Flaming River Steering Gear Box. The previous owner drove it for about 15 miles before deciding he wanted to convert to rack and pinion on his 67 Eleanor clone. So lucky for me he sold this gear box for a steep discount 👍
Chroming My Own Classic Car Dash Pieces - 1968 Mustang
Просмотров 21 тыс.Год назад
I used chemicals purchased from angelgilding.com to attempt "rechroming" some of my Mustang dash pieces. I meant that I used Easy Off oven cleaner, not 409, to strip the plastic part's old paint and chrome.
1968 Mustang - C4 Pan Gasket and Filter - Let's Revive Her!
Просмотров 53Год назад
My name is Alex. I have had my 1968 Mustang Coupe since 1999. While in the military it was my daily driver and for a few years after. The head gaskets went out one day in 2010 and my inexperience with cars and lack of funds made it difficult to get it up and running right away. I've learned a little since then thanks to youtubers and now I'm feeling more than ready to give it another shot. I ho...

After many years of having my Pontiac, it was time to let go of my GXP. Gave it away to family since I got another Mustang. This car is a beast. 2012 Mustang GT California Special, stock mufflers. Race red. Automatic and loving it!

How to Repair 1967 1968 Mustang Overhead Console Map Light Switch
Просмотров 6083 года назад
Instead of paying over $20 for 2 switches, I paid $7 ( tax) for 12. Example of how to diy to save some $$. Here's the switch I used. You don't have to buy this certain one, but it's good for measurement reference: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075VBWFM6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Great video, very authentic
How long did you wait before you sprayed the clear?
@@CedrickWilliams i believe you have to wait anywhere from 12-24 hours for it to completely dry. I would have to look again as it's been a little while
@@CedrickWilliams Thank you!
Be conscious of your thermal changes as you’re going from paint to water to air. Try to keep them all the same temperature.
you need better prep for cleaner outcome.
Hi, nice job, one thing that I started doing years ago is paint things inverted, it works very well. Good luck Rich
Gotta try that
Excellent, thanks for sharing, new sub. Cheers.
How much for me to ship my 74 impala grill to you?!
I agree bro. Can I send my 64 Plymouth fury dash to you. I will take that same work and be happy….
Me too! I would send so many different parts too him lol
Looks great. I'm going to try it. Keep posting videos. I would like to see that air cleaner. I have one for my plymouth i want to modify it .
Distilled water in the metal spray gun is no longer Distilled as it picks up minerals from the metal
J
You guys are drinking this cool- aid? LOL!!!
Not sure what you mean.
@@CruisinComPTon What's the vibrating sound, air compressor?
@@xmo552 yes
Super fine steelwool helps clean that up. I feel you & I'm trying to learn myself to . I'm working on 69 351w mustang engine, that I'm putting in a 66 fairlane 500 . So good luck man !
Ooh I love those Fairlanes. I wish you the same. Hoping to get back to this soon!
nice car man, are you using 5w-30?
I believe it was 5w-20. Sold the car though😔
oh shit, what did you end up getting@@CruisinComPTon
I think the aldehydes (acids) from the combustion are causing the chemical reaction
Which combustion and what would you recommend? I am in no way a chemist. I just followed directions
When you were using the torch to heat the paint layer you mentioned it caused a chemical reaction I was sharing info with you about the acids produced during the combustion of the torch flame was probably what is causing it I’m not a scientist either but I have worked with combustion gas analysis for many years I learned a little about the affects on the paint coating a job I worked on. I think you did a fine job on your parts if you look at the new remakes the chrome affect isn’t that good I sure you will find your technique of perfection
@@seeveiw Thank you. Using the torch was a suggestion by the manufacturer of the spray chrome when I came to them with the issue I was having. It would be funny if that was also causing it lol. Unfortunately I haven't had time to get back to this, but I'm not done trying.
Can u put link for product plz ty great work btw
angelgilding.com/spray-chrome/basic-spray-chrome-kit.html
It used to be $499 last year, price went up
Nice work!
Thank you!
Which kit did you purchase?
The basic spray chrome kit.
I’ll always take time to applaud a person that is trying. I’ve seen various forms of the chrome process online over the years. Mostly commercialized types. What makes this video important is the genuine human error left transparent for us. No underscoring the importance of this. I figured these processes took more trial and error than many of these videos display. Thank you for both trying and the truth brother! I now know what to expect . I love chrome. Always will.
Thank you and yes there's more than just spraying water and the chemicals. I contacted Angel Gilding and they advised me to use a propane torch a certain way to get a better result, but honestly I had the same result. Still have yet to get back to it because life happens. Appreciate the kind words!
I did the same repair however I could not get the brake lights to work after I did it. Turn signals were intermittent also. Did you try it with power on yours and does it work?
I haven't gotten that far. Had to put the Mustang on hold. Trying to get back to it soon! I'll let you know
Why would you fill the oil filter before
If you don't, the car will likely explode leaving a crater on the ground.
@@CruisinComPTon obviously you have never heard of clear flood mode?
@@Mustangg16 I hadn't when I made this video, but I've seen since sold the Stang. 😔
I've seen renovators of old toy cars put plastic in a bath of Hydrogen Peroxide and water and then leave it under UV light for the day to remove the old yellow sheen and fogginess from clear plastic window pieces - I'me sure the clear plastic pieces for an old Mustang could use a little treatment too
Thank you that's good to know. Definitely need to try it out
That 68 bezel looking good but I understand you want it perfect!
If you did a west pac you either a Sailor or Marine either way Semper FI
Correct👍 Served on the Connie (USS Constellation CV-64) Had a few Marine buddies as well! While in Training school and during deployments.
Down 2 ride!
Damn right
New sub bro.
That transmission leak is common mostlikely it's the gaskets wear faster due to lack use oddly enough.
You're right, it makes sense that stuff breaks down without using it... Use it or lose it is what they say
Compton in the house 🏠 💯
CPT 😎👍
Did you ever figure out the process that works best? And what are you doing for clear?
No I havent gotten back to it since I want to get the car running first so working on that whenever I have time. Im using speedokote 2k clear with the violet dye they provide in the kit, but when you order the chrome kit it comes with a 2k clear as well.
About to order a kit from angel... worried though I herd this is a hard process to get right!
It definitely takes practice. Im almost to the point of starting the car and hopefully I can get back to this soon
That all chrome bezel would look good with some white gauges, nice job.
Thanks and I agree. Eventually I am going to customize my dash with this chrome spray. Im going to try and perfect the process once I get my Mustang running again.
Nice Car Bro, and great Color 👌🏻😎🚘
Likewise on your 2013👍👍
Nice work, nice car!
Thanks!
Beautiful GT/CS!
Appreciate it!
nice ride
Thanks! Going to be working on my 68 soon as well.
