Best Mustang forum?

Doing some research and was wondering where the best bang for the buck on the web is.

More specifically, the classics.

thanks, Stan

This site is strictly for the classics. Other Mustang sites cover all years and have a section for the classics, which isn't a bad thing.

As a long time (since 1998) Member of Vintage-Mustang.com, I would have to say that it is not the best forum anymore, although still a worthwhile resource. The recently departed former owner of the VMF got a little full of himself and drove a lot of the good people away. IMO, the best classic mustang forum is stangfix.com. A lot of the people that made the VMF great are now on this forum. BTW, do you have a vintage Mustang, and if so, what is it? -Jim

I'm on allfordmustangs.com a good bit and they do pretty well. Of course, I frequent the late model forums, but they cover everything. I've found with mustang stuff that there are a LOT of idiot involved no matter where you go because the cars are so popular. On any Mustang forum you have to weed out the idiots and figure out who really knows their stuff.

I think specifying "Mustang" there was superfluous. That's one of the things I like about the GRM board, it seems to be the exception.

You got that right! That's one reason I suggested the Stangfix forum, as so far most of the guys on there are not idiots. I'm sure it's only a matter of time...

Dex, you're absolutely right about most forums...and this place!

I don't have one at this time, but I've been looking for the last few weeks and wanted a good resource for any questions I might have. I might go look at one this weekend. I've been wanting another V8 for a few years now.

What has you on those forums?

..and to respond to RossD: I'm pretty sure there isn't an automotive question that can't be answered here! : )

thanks.

I have a '65 fastback. You can see it in the reader's rides.

Between one of my all-time favorite cars (TVR) and one of my favorite Mustangs, we seem to have a lot of similar tastes in cars...

Both of mine are reluctantly for sale - hint, hint.

No....!

(I'm looking for a project to do with the boy.)

What are you going to replace them with?

Well lucky for you, both of these are projects!!! And we're both in Ohio!!! How convenient!!!

Tuition.

www.corral.net is definitely one of the most mature, knowledgeable and friendly car forums out there period...

And Corner-Carvers.net, if it still exists. You've gotta have a thick skin if you ask non-informed, non-researched questions. ccnet assumes Competence. Members there LOVE GRM and also love E30 Bimmers, as well as Mustangs of the race ken.

I was looking for a good classic mustang forum to get some drivetrain and front suspension advice for my 68' Fairlane and never really came across one. I found one decent fairlane & torino forum but they were all geared toward big blocks and going fast in a straight line whereas I have a boring sedan that I wanted to put a healthy small block into and abuse it in the corners from time to time.

Might have some good leads now

That sounds exactly like what I want to do with the Mustang -or Falcon...

That is an awesome answer!

Meh . . .

OnceI found out the people that have the knowledge I seek . . .I added them to my friends list and PM when I need a question answered . . . There is a lot of knowledge there, but a lot of BS to weed through as well.

Well, it's a sad reality for me. I have twins and they are going to college at the same time. I was financially prepared until this recession hit. Now I'm not.

Read the rules, follow the rules, search and ask informed researched questions or you wont last long.

Best mustang tech on the net though.

The reason they are so tough is so that the signal to noise ratio can be as high as possible, which some forums can make you really appreciate.
