Well since this is a virtual bash here are some virtual picturers, maybe when we arrive tomorrow the pictures be up, computers not really cooperating today, Well we had a really interesting virtual trip down, Started April 1, beautiful day out made it threw Chicago. Then noise coming from front wheel, pulled over, left front wheel bearing wiped out. No problem replaced it, torqued it nice and tight. Off down the road again, what do you know, left front bearing wiped out again. So replaced that one and new spindle, just happened to have one in the trunk. Off again, did a little burn out and watched the rear end swing around, almost hit that mail box. Glad no one was filming that one. Cruising down the road and all the sudden, bang engine stopped, no problem hotel was just up the road. Checked in, then I went and pulled the engine. Wow the crank was in two pieces, No problem had an extra one in the trunk. Did loose a day. Back on the road again. After stopping for lunch, carb. was leaking gas, so pulled top off, float had a whole in it. No problem, a little JB weld will seal that one up. Back on the road again, dang, that electric fuel pump went out. So under the car I go to fix that one. It was getting late so stopped for the night. Nice early start,just what we need, flat tire, changed that, will have new ones sent ahead. Cruising down the road red lights, that's no good. I was only doing,O never mind. Got to stimulate the economy. Well a little lighter in the wallet. We were moving along when front end feels a little loose. So pull over, man I should have tighten them upper control arm nuts a little more. Lost the shims, no problem had extras in the glove box. Tightened every thing up, did eyeball alignment and on the road again. Pulling in hotel, wouldn't you know it, directional switch wires were all shorted out. No problem just rewired it, had every thing in the trunk. After dinner pulled out down the curb and put a nice gash in the front tire, what next. Did have to adjust drivers side window sure wish I had those magnetic door panels.Well thats my virtual trip down to the 2020 virtual bash.
Sure was fun Lorrie Jim Bowie Mike and Oretha Say HIGH to all,
Maybe pictures will arrive a little later.

Got me too. Wish I did have an extra 1 piece crank in the trunk. The 2 piece cranks just don’t work well.

Im Steve69. I live just south of Madison WI. Been on MS page since about 2003. I've only been to one bash which was Terry's in 2014! That was about 5 hours drive for me. It was really nice meeting everyone at the bash in 2014. I own a 69 Fastback Mustang I bought a month prior to getting married in 1992. I've done a lot changes with my Mustang through out the last 28 years. Still married and have 3 kids which 2 are in college. So I've always had a tight budget and made due with what I had. Back in 2005 I splurged and had my Brother in law paint my Mustang. That was probably the biggest expense which was $4500 back then. I still have the original 302 and added a T5 back in 2012. I have street or track front suspension with Granada disc front brakes. I have a 3.25 rear gear with drum brakes. Added vintage air last year along with Dakota Digital Gauges. Added TMI interiors this winter. I ditched the FiTech EFI last year and went with a Summit Carburetor. Hope to get a few miles on this summer to see if I like the Carburetor or not. I tried uploading some pics but as soon as there uploaded it disappears. Also wanted to add MS has been very helpful in helping with my ride throughout the years along with the crew! Thanks Steve69 Ill try to add some pics latter.

I didn't have any Coronas, but I had my mask!
Also, I not only took a picture with my 67 Coupe, but I also took a picture of my 2005 Mustang GT which would have been the car I brought to the Bash!.

Tubo, 681 Miles Ft Walton Beach to Myrtle Beach. Corky & Karol Pittsenberger Miss May 1965(Oct 64 Build) 331 the only things original on the car; Unibody, front fenders, interior panels, Stainless window trim, & rear glass. I've changed everything else.
Miss May is undergoing surgery and cosmetics. The boxes on either side of us contain new trunk flooring and gas tank surrounds, rear tail light panel, and 69 seat pans. So the rear quarter caps will fit correctly fit after 26 years Then fiberglass hood and a long held on to vacuum formed Shelby Street front valance with the rest of the body gets new Electric Blue paint and Pearl White Stripes finally the correct width.
Karol & I are sitting on the new leather 07 Mustang seats which will replace the Mazda 626 seats,
Karol retires next year, and we are ready to travel. See Ya on the Blvd

Sorry. Can't remember my password to log onto the computer. Even had it written down. My phone has it saved, but I can't access it.
REMEMBER!!! When posting a question about your Mustang or other Ford on this forum, BE SURE to tell us what it is, what year, engine, etc so we have enough information to go on. |
