just bought a 1965 mustang. feels good to be part of the family.
Im going to need to fixer up a bit so if anyone has good sites and tips for buying installing parts, let me know.

 

Welcome! Post some pics as everyone here loves to see them. I buy most of my stuff from National Parts Depot (NPD) but there is also Mustangs Unlimited, Mustangs Plus, Virginia Classic Mustang, and about a dozen others I'm sure will be mentioned. Summit & Jegs for performance and replacement parts to start with (this list would never end). Napa, Auto Zone, etc you'll also get to know. There is also eBay.

I'd highly suggest getting catalogs from these sites. You can pretty much build a classic Mustang from NPDs catalog.

First priority is to order a printed shop manual. The CD versions are ok but you really want a printed book out in the shop.

Check out Mustang Monthly for their How-To and Tech sections. This is a great site and if you have questions you'll more then likely get a few replies from people regarding questions.

 

Welcome!

Any more info on the Mustang? Coupe, convertible, fastback; 289 V8, 200 I6?

 

Welcome!!!!!!!

I agree about the manual. I got the CD version and it is just fine. This was very helpful with wiring diagrams because you could blow them up or zoom in.

I wish I had a real paper shop manual.

The Haynes and Chiltons books can be helpful too since they are cheap.

Pictures?

 

sorry i cant get the pics to you just yet (wanted to wait until it was in my driveway, but decided to show you what it looks like). its not in the driveway yet. its being payed for and received tomorrow at 7 pm. eastern time

 

 

That didn't work. save the pics to your computer and then upload them to photobucket. then post the[IMG][/IMG] link.

 

 

 

Sweet man, looks very similar to mine (white, 65 coupe 6-cylinder) except I have the pony package.

You should turn the air cleaner so that the snorkel points to the driver's side fender of the car, unless that was temporary or you have fixed it already
