It may be your clutch is not disengaging completely. If the disk isn’t free on the input shaft spline you will have this problem. You also may just need to adjust your pedal free play.

Did you look for broken components? Did you jack up each wheel and wiggle it, to check for play? Have you bounced off a curb or something lately? Even a small amount of toe out can make a car feel really unstable. (especially in the rain or snow)

Hey dj,that sounds like a great project. I raced an 80 pinto years ago. They are strong adaptable cars. There is an 8″ rear that comes in most of the wagons. It will take lots of abuse. They also make front springs for the V8 Mustang II that go right in. The stock 4 speed wont take the hp for long, but there are other choices. Put in some subframe connectors and go.

The copper washers will work if you anneal them first. When they are stamped out they get work hardened. If you heat them up with a propane torch until they turn dull red, then let them cool slowly, they soften right up. They will even work on those poorly machined surfaces.
