    light knocking

    If the rings and pistons are damaged it would show up in a compression check. If the damage was caused in the mains, it may show up in the oil. If you have low or no oil pressure on start up the engine will knock, especially in cold weather. When the car warms up, the knock goes away.

    Not driving the Stang this winter

    I have a good quality car cover. If you use a snow blower, don't pile the snow on the car. The weight of the snow may dent panels.

    60's Ford & Mustang parts

    She's a 67. Back in June I didn't have any cash, so I don't feel that bad. Thanks for keeping me in mind, and please keep in touch if you want to get rid of some stuff. I'm always up for a road trip.

    Gear Questions

    The best gear change for the winter? Get a 1k beater Honda and store the Mustang. Salt does nasty things to nice cars.

    picking on a ricer.

    LOL good eye in spotting the latch popping up, I had it bungeed down but I guess it didn't work that good. I have plans for a fiberglass hatch for next year. In the ricers defense, he seemed like a nice guy, a little cockey, but nice.
