    convertible top issues

    Here are current pics. It rained yesterday so you can see where the dirt has settled into the spots where I put the glue bead on too thick. The pics really magnify the rookie application but overall I’m pleased with the effort… not very noticeable when it’s clean and it was a pretty cheap fix.

    convertible top issues

    It sounds like my ‘07 had the same issue & fix as LaserMan’s. By the time I actually started the repair, my rear window had all but come completely separated from the fabric. As you can see in the pics, I worked my way around the window (with my son helping) and used old paint sticks to...

    Stuff I wish I would have added years ago - 2014 GT

    Re: rear suspension upgrades - How did the Whiteline LCA/relocation affect your handling? Any plans for the top mount?

    Coupe vs Vert Rear Suspension

    My 2 cents worth about the convertible braces: I definitely could tell the difference in handling with braces vs. without them on my street driven, modded S197. The long version: I’ve built a number of semi serious street machines over the past 4 decades and have always built them from the...

    Deleting The Convertible's Rear Chassis Braces

    Short answer: If this mod doesn't light your fire then your pilot light is out! In the next couple of weeks, I am planning on a tires / brakes / shocks upgrade on this 2007 V6 convertible that I bought last winter (103,000 mi). Having never owned a mustang before (An early model F-body gear head...
