just found these videos and watched every single one in the last couple hours!! Real excited to see how the suspension is.. I am going to start building my dads old 71 grande that has been sitting for about 15 years and was looking for ways to go with the build and this is making me push toward a style like yours! looking forward to more updates...
I've just started up a project on the same car (but with the black and yellow boss paint job), so I'll probably be watching these videos a lot over the next few months
Took your advice and got the Flaming River tilt column and power rack & pinion system for the 67 Mustang project - so far everything is working out as expected - keep up the great how to videos
I'm not a massive fan of the wheel but on the whole this car does not get the attention it deserves. It's refreshing to see someone wrench on something other than a 64-70 mustang/chevelle etc.
I loved the third gen Camaro vid you had, if you ever decide to do another one would love to see a build video similar style to the Large Marge project!
+tommyboy1two HAHA! It's getting harder to make time but I'm really enjoying the car at this point and making big swings at progress...I'm heading out again for work but should be back at it soon as I return!
my friend your way over due for an update video, appreciate all your vids, im restoring a 65 fastback and a 73 mach 1, doing all the same tricks you have ...great vids
Can't wait to see the rest of the car come together! Do you have a timeline or is it just going to be done when it's done? The videos of your '82 camaro brought me to your channel but your other content is great too. Wish you had done a series like this one on the 'maro. Happy building!
It's tough to say when at this point because of work but lots of work helps pay for this whole shindig! I'm hoping to have it running in January or February and then figure out the rest.
Hey man, im having some trouble after dropping the column down on my 71 mustang to remove the dash for paint. After setting everything back in place, the wheel ignition cylinder lock disengages, but the wheel locks in place when turning right but not left. After getting frustrated for a bit I yanked the column backwards and the wheel now turns freely but I now have a massive amount of slack in the column. I then set it back in place and the wheel locks again when turning right. Could it be a rag joint issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated. And its amazing seeing how much the channel has grown over the years, remember watching you since I was a kid haha. Im now 18 and own a salvaged jk 2 door that ive built up, and a 71 fastback.
"since I was a kid" LOL!!! Thanks dude! Seems like you need to make sure everything is clocked correctly. If you don't have the steering box centered when you install the wheel... it will seem off. Plus the key lock in the column has a center to it as well. Take some time and re-install with everything dialed and you should be good.
That aluminum coloum mount, is it actually in the stock position height? It looks down a bit. I will be installing my new fr column in my 81 Camaro, and I'm torn between your style mount and the "factory" style for 2" fr coloums, which also you need the original factory style cage bracket that goes around and bolts to the Part #: FR20300 bracket made by fr.
Hey man i like all your videos i have a mustang just like that too im 16 yrs old my first car im barely fixing it up i have a 302 in it i would like to see if theres by any chance how i cantact you to ask you a couple questions man thanks for reading im from las vegas

+Tyler Carlson Awesome to hear Tyler! Welcome and thanks for the nice words. Good luck on your build and post videos if you can so we all can see.

Good luck on your project!
@@AutoEdits Little detail, but I haven't been able to figure out the weight of my Mustang's hood. What hydraulic struts would you recommend for it?
i have a 71 and 73 mach 1's ... both have stock tilt steering colums... this looks so much better !
It was a really great setup.
Always happy to see another Mustang video!
Me too! Thanks!

That's great to hear! It's a good product, I'm real happy so far. Thanks for taking a minute to watch and comment!
The pic of the old Cougar looked gorgeous! Love the aftermarket steering wheel, keep up the great work!

Another great video yessss!!! Appreciate. You and these videos so much, I was plunging my toilet but just let it over flow when I saw this
+Mackenzie Yarbough Oh man, take care of that toilet...lol! Thanks though!

your spoiling us with all these videos
+tommyboy1two HAHA! It's getting harder to make time but I'm really enjoying the car at this point and making big swings at progress...I'm heading out again for work but should be back at it soon as I return!
+autoedit lol don't burn yourself out. Take your time and just enjoy building it.
definitely a cool build my friend.
I have the same 73 in convertible all the mods your making i wish i could do, funds holding back the fun. But one day. Great job!
Learned a lot.Thanks Jason.
Cool! Glad to hear that...thanks for checking it out.
my friend your way over due for an update video, appreciate all your vids, im restoring a 65 fastback and a 73 mach 1, doing all the same tricks you have ...great vids
+soupercooper Working on that...thanks for the reminder!
nice wheel. I thought Ididit was the only brand out there since that's all I see. Good to see some variety.
Can't wait to see the rest of the car come together! Do you have a timeline or is it just going to be done when it's done?

I'm glad you watched this... thanks for commenting!
Mechanical part is easy, I cant find and electrical connection video anywhere.

Yes, it's stock height. Fits right up to the gauge cluster like it's supposed to.
amazing man
+SHERIBOY Thanks!!!!!
I have always wondered about building that style camaro do you have any videos on that build?
+Robert Ritchey No videos on the build but here is a video of me driving it.
ua-cam.com/video/mUYDrPuTnjk/v-deo.html
Very cool car, sounded so good too.
Are these new replacement steering columns collision safe , i.e. do they collapse in the event of a collision ?
They make a collapsible version if that is a concern for you.
@@AutoEdits Thanks ...
next time a sponsor is willing to give parts to you for free (not saying they do) you can just ship em to me.
You should get some UA-cam videos going on your build up!
+autoedit I know I've been meaning to. I have the engine stripped down to a bare block. I think I'll start when I put it together
Lets not forget ford made this larger body style to compete in nascar before the gas crisis.
is there by any chance i can contact you im 16 yrs old i have a 73 grande and want to ask u a couple questions
+Bryan Aguilar Glad to hear another 73 is getting some attention. Feel free to email me at autoedits@gmail.com and we can go from there.

+jesus salcido Sure, my email is autoedits@gmail.com
autoedit what was the part number for the flaming river steering column. I’ve been looking on the site but I can’t find anything for a 72
nice wheel. I thought Ididit was the only brand out there since that's all I see. Good to see some variety.
+robinsonb75 Yes, I realize there are a lot of other companies out there but these guys make some really good stuff that fits what I like perfectly!
