My 89 GT vert lights were crap with the standard alt, I went with a higher amp alt ( 90 not the 103 ) and Sylvania Silver Stars. They have been in there for10 years. The turn signals work faster and the amp needle stays above 12. Stock everything else with electronics ... Always a Ford Motor Craft battery.. but they are getting harder to find., convertible are so easy to get into, the alarm I had installed was just to add power doors option and interior sensor for reach- ins when the top was down and shock sensors for impacts or getting lifted up...The color matching cup holder I got from LMR was great upgrade , it fits into the cig ash tray cup opening when it's removed. They now have a complete replacement center console top ( paint to match )for just that and cell phone spot and USB charging jacks...I went with Hegarty Ins.. its and agreed value cost ... one payment that covers the car a full year.. Farmers was 6 months just like our daily driver and twice the costs..There are restrictions through Hegarty but its not a daily driver...

[@joeracer302]

You should retrofit some Lexus RX350 projectors or get some repos from Morimoto. That was a popular mod 20 years ago, and there are kits today that make it way easier. A straight bulb replacement is garbage if just reusing the halogen reflector housing, and it just blinds everyone if you throw bright bulbs in a halogen reflector.

If traveling with someone, leave a cell phone in the car overnight. Hide it somewhere out of sight. If in the morning, it's gone, you can use whatever "find my phone" or GPS tracking setup you had on that phone, and go get your car back. Android normally shows me location within meters, like I can see I'm in the south east corner of my house. I've been SCREAMING this idea for years! EVERY big event, and I'm talking the big races, you have someone in a 50K truck, with a 25K trailer, with a 50-150K built racecar.... parked at a $70 a night hotel and in the morning the whole car/truck/trailer is gone. Then it's shared over 50 FB groups "be on the lookout for..." Yeah, nice thought, but that guy was probably traveling with a couple friends and one of them easily could have left a phone in the trailer, but nope. :(

[@leekg7922]

Or you can add a AirTag

[@hotrodmercury3941]

Slip an AirTag or something in the frame of the car. That's what I did with all my cars. Only got one stolen once by my own sister. Shove it somewhere in the dash or frame or whatever.

I remember the old old old days of plastic clip on cupholders. you rolled down your window, hung the clip on the brittle weatherstripping, put the cup in and 5 minutes later it broke on you and showered your lap for you.

I used to wire a kill switch for the fuel pump (on the ground wire to the fuel pump relay) and would hide the switch somewhere inside the console underneath a panel where it wasn’t visible and only able to be found if you knew where to slip your fingers in heh

Insurance - most mileage allowance I have found with Classic insurance is 7500 miles allowed per year with Hagerty’s. Not enough miles allowed for how much I want to drive.

[@josephharrison6175]

Good ideas! BTW, if you want cup holders but you want to keep your console stock, there's a double cup holder that stabs into the ashtray opening.

I've got Hagertys on my 79 Ghia Hatch. Very reasonable price. I pay less in a year than I do on my 07 GT in a month. You can buy a gps disabling system that hooks into your ECU that will kill the car and track it at the same time.

You really don’t need a cup holder if you can hold a beer between your legs while lighting a cigarette and steering with your knees. I know people who do that.

Which antique auto insurance do you think is best?? Thanks!

[@89gt5.0]

Grundy is a good one.

[@hotrodray6802]

My regular company insures any "hot rod/ classic" etc. Normal state license tag is acceptable. = Does not require antique or street rod plate. 1) Must have a primary car with "full coverage". 2) Same coverage applies to specialty car 3) Gives full declared agreed value for the specialty car. My rate on each hot rod is about 20% of primary car.

In regards to the alternator upgrade, if you were planning on running an EPAS instead of traditional powersteer, would a 130 amp alternator be sufficient?

True story... back in 2004 my door solenoids froze in the unlocked position, so the doors were unlocked. Thieves BROKE MY WINDOW to break in. 😆 They almost got it, I had a Club on, and they had sawed through most of my steering wheel and had it jumped under the dash when someone came up and spooked them away. I still have the car to this day.

Not the answer to your question but mine was doing that 4 years ago. I went in behind the center of the dash from the passenger side and unplugged the module. Mine was making a constant beeping sound. I know the airbag will not work but to be honest I’m not sure how much I trust the airbag in a 30 year old car. It took about 2 minutes to get in there and unplug it.

[@sto1asgoetia600]

7:00 not entirely true, they’re only easy if they are automatics, only 17% of total population knows how to drive a manual car, and I doubt anyone who’s looking to steal cars these days to do shut downs or petty crime etc is going to know how to drive a manual car without breaking something in the drivetrain.

[@hotrodray6802]

Try again. 😲😎 The Club is easily defeated in 20 seconds on YT. Get a driveway alarm from Harbor Freight $15. Put over sunvisor. Transmits 300 ft into your motel room. Get a second one on the same channel and put that receiver behind your grille so the thief can hear it. Install a foot type dimmer switch for your left foot hidden up high and use it as a fuel pump and ignition cut off. Good for stopping hijacking too. Use it every time you park. Quick and easy. Pull the inertia crash switch button when you park. "Street rod" electric parking brake 👍👍 Normal battery disconnect switch. Hot wire the computer memory to stay on. My favorite is the foot switch. Use 3 ideas when parked and they'll never get it started. BTW, I do this at home too.😁 I live in a very nice area but being careful is better than being sorry. 😎
