NOTE: The 50natics list is now administered by Chris Ferino. Please contact Chris if you have any questions that are not answered here.
The 50natics mailing list is a high-volume, unmoderated forum for discussing '79-up Ford Mustangs, '79-'86 Mercury Capris, and related vehicles based on Ford's Fox chassis, with an emphasis on technical topics such as repair, restoration, and performance modifications. Questions from novices are encouraged. If you love late model Mustangs, this is the place for you!
The 50natics list is hosted by The Mustang Works Online.
50natics is available as a "live" list, or as a digest.
New subscribers are invited to send an introductory message describing their interest in Mustangs, and any initial questions they might have.
To subscribe, send an email message to imailsrv@lists.mustangworks.com, with the following in the body of the message:
Make sure you send the message from the exact email address that you will be using to post message to the list. Normally, only subscribers' email addresses are allowed to post to a list. If the address you send a post from does not match the one you have subscribed, your posting will be refused.
If for some reason this doesn't work, please mail the administrator.

Send trouble reports and other administrivia to the administrator, and he will respond as soon as is practical.
Private-party ads are welcomed. Appropriate items include vehicles, parts, tools, supplies, etc. Pointers to commercial suppliers and services are also welcomed, but commercial advertising is strongly discouraged.
Announcements of Mustang-related events (car shows, club events, etc.) are also welcomed. Again, however, commercial advertising is discouraged.
The 50natics list is archived at Listquest. These archives cover the period from September 25, 1998 onward.
Many thanks to the gearheads at Listquest for offering this service! Please patronize their advertisers.
Unfortunately there are no archives prior to September 1998.

The 50natics list is now administered by the iList mailing list manager. Persistent unresolved delivery problems may result in removal from the list. If you don't see any messages for several days, email the list administrator with an alternate contact method (e.g. another email address, voice phone number) so he can contact you to resolve the problem.
