Good afternoon. I wanted to reach out to the GRM community, especially since i saw a pile of them at ormond brewing on friday night of Rolex weekend. My parents live in palm coast and have a 1966 mustang convertible restomod, she seems to have a few odd issues going on, the largest of which includes a nasty vibration at highway speeds plus. a few rattles here and there. Wondering if anyone has a recommendation of a shop to take a look around the car to help out. restoration was completed about 4 years ago.
happy to talk specifics about the cars mods, but overall think its more of a decent tech that knows their way around 60's tech could be fine. Thanks in advance.
Jack it up, spin around the tires.
See if they do anything weird like the tread waves side to side or up and down. Also engage the transmission and run it up to the cruising speed where it vibrates and see what happens.
When a customer came into our shop with complaint of vibration those are the first two things I would check. Usually it was tires or a bent wheel though occasionally a bad u-joint.
While its jacked up check out the steering linkage for play in all the parts.

I don't have a shop for you, but my mom also lives in Palm Coast. Next time I'm up there I can swing by and look at it if it hasn't been figured out.
If i was a few hundred miles closer, id say me. Its what I do for side money.
guess another piece of the puzzle is that they are in a gated community that doesnt allow work to be done on cars.
