I purchased a 1966 Mustang about a year ago, and have done a decent amount of work to get it running. Now I have reached the point that it runs, but I can't quite get all the kinks worked out. Most of my issues are completely due to lack of inexperience. For example, when I accelerate, I can tell something doesn't sound right, but I can't quite put my finger on what the sound is. My goal is to due most of the work on my own, but I have hit a wall.

I was wondering if anyone had any recommendation on where I could ask completely newbie questions without causing too much noise and annoyance to the pros.

Are you a member of a club devoted to Mustangs? I'm sure there are at least one (probably many more). And these national clubs will have local chapters -- maybe on in your area. The national may also have a website with a ''members only'' area where you can download valuable information. At least, this is the case for a lot of one-marque car clubs. Joining a club devoted to Mustangs would probably be a cost-effective way to get more technical information (and learn where to buy parts) for your car. You'll also tap into a network of like-minded people, one or two of which (with any luck) will live near you and be able to offer help on a one-to-one basis.

Good luck with your latest acquisition!

I agree with Jon and if you do not find any Mustang clubs in your area, try for a local A.A.C.A. chapter. You'll find old car people are most always willing to help.

It will be difficult if not impossible to determine what you are experiencing with your car unless it is seen in person.

Best of luck on the car.
