I'll just say that he owns three GM's and a Volvo. He told me the other day he had to ride his bike to go get parts. I have not had to do that yet.

Crapmaro is funny. I usually go with Scumaro.
They aren't a direct fit, BUT, the body lines are almost identical, allowing you to use a Mustang front clip.


This guy did some body work to the lines (where the molding goes on a Mustang fender) between the door and wheel.


This is how it would have looked before bodywork was done to make it match.

Mornin' Bear.... as soon as the bell rings, I gotta rush home, ship out some ebay stuffs I sold, then get back home to get the 89 ready for a show at UMC tomorrow.

I thought you guys might get a kick out of this one... this girl races a GT500 with her Camaro. It really starts at 8:00 though.

White,

I have a question for you in the thread you replied to with the filter wrenches you bought off Amazon.
There are two options on Amazon. I saw you bought the 93 mm x 15 mm model....
What if I buy a 93 mm wrench attachment ?? is it the right one ?
I can go to a store near me and pick up a model that states "93 mm"
I ask because the Amazon page you gave a link that also indicated a 93 mm x 36 mm option

I have no idea what the 15mm or 36mm means.

That's not a measurement (there's no "mm" after the 15 or 36). It's the number of flutes around the edge of the wrench.

15 Flutes


36 Flutes


You'll need to look at the filter(s) you use to determine what will fit.

Yeah, I took a closer look. The measurements are in mm for the first spec.
The 15 & 36 indicates the number of flutes. The 93 is for mm
Motocraft filter needs 15 flutes

The Motorcraft has more flutes than 15.... must be the 36.

I seriously use whichever I can find the best deal on between Wix or Motorcraft. I think it has a Wix on it right now... can't remember what I used last, LOL.
