I know the Mustang isn’t your car Davin, and I realize some folks like to keep all that OEM stuff. But the aftermarket can give you an new subframe in front that includes rack and pinion steering, coil overs, and disc brakes. All things that improve drivability without changing the classic looks of the car. On the other hand, if it is just a weekend summertime cruiser, new old parts work just fine. Love your stuff, so keep it coming.
Davin, in your other video on this car you stopped and gave a tip about battery cables. At the time, I thought I would likely not need that tip any time soon. Less than a week later I needed to change the battery on my Acura. To do so, I took the month old Optima battery out of my 77 280Z and installed it in the Acura. Yes. They take the same one. Then I got a new one for the Z and put it in. Thanks to your tip, I didn't have any doubt or questions about the safe way to do it. Thanks!
Awww hell, 10X TIME LAPSE.?.? 2:45 Less then 7 minutes, c'mon, I feel CHEATED here. Sad... I am happy for the family you did this, but 4:00 for this project.??? HAVE fun at FEMA.
They probably did over $2000-$3000 dollars worth of repairs to make the Mustang right and reliable again and it was well worth it to see the look on Sue's face and the tears of happiness.
Interesting, Edd China just did a reseal of the ram and is doing a rebuild of the control valve on a 60s Mustang while Davin decided wholesale replacement is the way to go. I guess he was in a hurry to get to the airport.
Or Edd couldn't be bothered waiting for the parts to come across the pond! The extra time it takes to recon stuff with readily available seals etc., it probably evens out.
@@billbeyer657 Completely agree. There are very few suppliers of US car parts here, but a big dose of patience, a pot of tea and a selection of component catalogues would suffice as a substitute. Stuff like seals and bearings can be found just about anywhere with enough diligence!
I'd love to say hello at SEMA - unfortunately US gov decided to open the borders a little to late for the european crowd(s). 😉 So have a great show! C ya next year (hopefully). 👋
Long time fan of this channel and series, but I have a quick question. Pennzoil has been a longtime sponsor of the rebuilds, but I can't find any Pennzoil product that has the level of ZDDP to keep flat tappet cams happy. Question is, are you running an add in with the oil to get the proper level of ZDDP?
As a close family friend I can’t tell you how much this means to them, especially Sue! Warren is watching her from above with a big smile, and probably telling her to slow down!
Those Ford PS setups were always a nightmare to work on but they worked well. My first car was a 1963 Galaxie XL with the same setup. My Dad wouldn't let me park it in the driveway unless I put down cardboard to catch the drips from it. That was back in 1971 I had got it to use as my auto shop class project to rebuild the engine in it.
Lord how I hated my first gen Maverick Grabber with 302 3 speed. Subframe metal for rear shocks was thinner than a friggin' matchbook cover, no kidding. Girlfriend at that time had her friends pile into the car, ran it hard over rr tracks, shock punched right into the trunk/rear seat area.
I was wondering when y'all were going to start back up on the '37 Ford race car. Glad we got a little glimpse of what's to come. Those headers look pretty cool, and those shiny pistons... yeah boy, those look amazing too. Have fun at SEMA you guys!
it is time to swap those GOD AWFUL front drum brakes over to the disc brake setup , for far better braking power , but that also means swapping out the master cylinder as well
It is a beautiful day out there. If I had only remembered to order those two seals from Rock Auto when I ordered the other parts. Rats. Now I wait again. And no, they are not available locally.
Is there a link to all the parts that were used here. I am trying to change all power steering g system in the same manner but don't know which parts to order
what about the 52 year old brakes servo master cylinder seals and fluid davin they shurely need looking at.............and while your @ it look up chassis # ofo2g140406..........
Yup a leak means replace the entire system. To each their own. No way I could discard that pump when they are dead simple to reseal. Loose all the factory looking stuff for questionable rebuilt components.
Not just a single leak. I was looking at chasing one piece at a time but given the overall age and condition everything made most sense. On the pump you are right easy to resale however it was the return tube that was cracked and leaking.
Sometimes it's better just to eliminate the unknowns to prevent future failures. Thats if you have the money to do so, and I assume the owner does. The car is probably worth well over 50k so I would say $ is no issue. They also may rebuild the original p/s pump to reinstall in the future.
I've never owned, or even driven, anything with drums up front. They aren't as bad as everybody makes them out to be, right? I mean if a brake is capable of locking the tires up, there is no making them better?
I loved my ‘68 Riviera with the big front drums. Always super smooth and straight, plus they last a long time. Discs are probably a little better, and safer in the rain, but they just don’t last, you’re replacing or turning rotors every year or two.
David, working on a rusty, dusty 2006 Ford Escape with 365,000 miles on it. Same engine, teans, and rear end. Engine and Trans work fine, everything else is falling apart.
My Dad left his 99 S10 to Mr in 2012! In 2015 I had to do about $800 in maintenance to it because it sat for two years before he passed. You're getting off easy!
It's really nice to see the team went back and fixed up this issue. That sort of willingness to see things through is one of the things that really creates respect for a business, automotive or otherwise.
It’s power assisted steering, not power steering 😂. And that mustang would be better off if you just deleted it. That popet valve in the end there frequently gets stuck and you end up fighting it the whole time.
Power steering is just the shortened term for power assisted steering. They are the same thing. I would say they would prefer to keep it as the elderly woman that owns it would probably not be able to turn the steering wheel if it was deleted.
Wasn't there a strap or clamp that secured those ps hoses to the control valve body and that prevented them from working "loose" and leaking over time? I recall there being a single use crush fitting between the hard tube and the valve body. Something in that joint would get messed up if allowed to flex at all. Could be wrong. I often am.
We support our local shops a ton! Sometimes we don't have time to wait for shipped parts and the local places have it in stock. And sometimes the local place doesn't have what we need and our only option is online. We are in a pretty small town about 3 hours from the nearest "big city." So it's a balance... like most things! Trust us, our local shop has bailed us out SOOO many times when we need parts ASAP.
Hey it's a Ford. I hear a power steering failure sound under the hood of an old Ford at least once a week. Glad you got it fixed before it caught on fire. Yes there was someone who waited too long to get their power steering pump replaced and are now walking.
Those Ford power steering setups started leaking the day they were new. Junk. Rear shocks suck also. My first car was a 1 owner 1972 Mach One, had the Saginaw power steering much better. Rear shocks were accessed through the trunk way in the back, good times.
Highly underrated color for these cars.
SILVERHORSE347, Most underrated color for the 69 mach1 is the avocado green. Only two made in the U.S. I had one of them.

Grandma needs a set of disc brakes.
Yes I agree! I thought that was his "4 small issues" (4.15) but I was wrong ;)
Can't believe that they weren't standard .... My 69 Grande has them and my power steering still doesn't leak ...
This car should be "washed" in detail by AMMO NYC....
It is so sweet to see how genuinely happy Davin is working on this car. Like a kid in a candy store =)
"It's new, it's shiny, It's not going to leak" - I love this mans optimism!

Mr. Davin Reckow , this car is a beauty! : ) please continue to do more videos on this mustang and more of will it run videos!
Such a beautiful machine.
Most of the 65-70 Mustangs were beautiful cars. 71-73? Not so much. Mustang II? It's better not to speak of the Mustang II.
Replacing the shocks as well really helps the driveability of the car

I agree wholeheartedly with you. I feel disappointment on this episode.
Huge cost difference. Edd mentioned it costing $500 for the control valve by itself in the UK
