Re: [Classic Mustang] 65 mustang speed issue...

Sounds like a trip to the tranny shop is in order. Some of this could be
an issue with the vacuum modulator that helps determine the 1-2/2-3 shifts,
but I suspect the bands need adjusting at the very least. Was the tranny
rebuilt when you did the resto?
