Hi guys.. im a little new here but i'm Roy. Novas dad . been to the last 2 Mustang Weeks at Myrtle beach... now this tip may be common knowledge but wasnt to me... i'm cleaning up my white 86 convertible right now and when i was taking off the front fenders 2 of the studs that go into the fiberglass header panel screwed out cause the nuts had gotten rusty so i had to cut them off. i couldn't find replacements but by a stroke of luck i noticed that the studs in the tailight housings on an 86 were the same so i used 2 of them out of a broken housing and put them back in with a little JB Weld to tighten up the holes and it worked prefect.. saved me the 20.00 that a mustang parts dealer wanted for 2 of these rare studs since no one takes them out of a good header panel and broken panels ones are thrown out. Merry Christmas to all you Mustang Guys.
