Has anyone out there used this site, http://www.all-parts.com/AP5/ It is a collecting of junk yards. I did a parts search there and all that I have gotten at a ßhit load of pÙrn spam. Has anyone else had this problem? Or is it just good old hotmail again

I have not used it, what are you looking for now? That would be a good usefull site if the problems did not arise ( no pun intended) lol
good one i am STILL looking for a trunk pan, cheapest one I have found is 250 plus 60 for shipping. that is 2 weeks working for me so it is alot to me. I have been trying to see how to make one out of sheet metal, but I want it to have the same holds I know that I am not that good at it. So anyone one with a 64 lane or some junk yards that have em keep an eye out for me

Yes, that is expensive. I think you will probally have to make one. maybe the picture will help you some. We have a lot of yards here, but not many open on the weekend, go figure that out?
Now that I have my licence I will be driving around in me lil free time to see if I can find a parts car, but thanks for looking around

like you said, it is yours and it is a car, I drove a 62 Ford Country Squiere with a V8 292 engine when I was your age. It was a rat trap, with a am radio and about 40 speakers, it was a wagon. 8 tracks were just becoming the rage. CKLW was the station out of Windsor Cananda to have on. Boy, am I going back..I had about ten friends with me in it once and we kept hearing a rattle than more and more and then the wheel fell off in the back, the rattle was the lug nuts and wheel studs breaking off and ratteling in the hub caps..That was a long time ago.

I had a old ford truck once that the entire bed was rusted, the wheel wells were almost falling off. I hauled junk with it, old appliances and what ever I could cash in on at the metel recyclers, Well a friend thought about what to use to repair the rusted bed. Well we took a refridgerater and cut the sides off and used it to cover the floor of the bed and the sides off a washing machine to do the sides, it worked great and the junk I put in just slid in real easy on the new floor. Just goes to show that recycling is a good idea.

Every time I go north and see the rust on vehicles that are less than half as old as mine, I just think wow, it does not have to be like this. I agree that Ford's still are just mainly a bucket of rust!

Hey fotw
You looking for a floor pan for your trunk,, I had an old 65 mustang that I rebuilt from the ground up, and I had the same problem.
All I did was take it to someplace that does fiberglassing, and had the whole interior of the trunk fiberglassed,, it was alot cheaper than buying a floor pan, and while they where at it, I had them fiberglass the whole undercarriage, it really cut down on the road noise that you encounter with older cars..
Believe me,, the car willl never rust out where the fiberglass is at,, it will outlast the car.

That sounds like a good idea Fotw. That is a good alternitive to your problems, and with the light weight you may not need to have that bleach line that you inquiered about.
Ya that dose sound good. Living in Maine, and I am right on the coat, I know alot of fisher men. Hell I was gonna be one last summer, but anyways alot of them know alot of fiberglassing. A good frined of mine made his whole boat outta form and FG. Ill talk to him. Great idea thanks
