I can tell you from experience while the Brick is Mustang like NONE of
the parts are interchangable. The fellow across the street had a friend
with a Mustang. We replaced his front end and commented about how close
the looked. I took the old parts and compared them to the Bricks:
a. Coil upper cushion - the Mustang's is a lot smaller
b. The coil spring - "
c. Lower coil/shock mount - "
The only part that usable is the shock, I beleive.

George thanks for the info. I'll add it to the parts info. You've been
holding out on us. What other goodies do you have for us?
