No problem...


More updates today. I finished installing the timing chain cover, water pump, thermostat as well as cleaned brackets and new alternator.

Couple of more photos today.

There was a little bit of progress today but mostly it was getting the front bumper installed with all the headlights installed and the bracket with the strobes. I did get some more little stuff completed under the hood.

Still need to get the rest of the interior completely buttoned up. I need to make sure I have all the A/C comtrols squared away and the radio wiring too. I wish I could come up with factory mustang pigtails that were cut off as to match the wires up.

I will take some more photos of the car outside as soon as it gets there. Once outside there are still a few small things left to do and this car should be ready to GO...

Some more progress today... It's out of the garage. Not running but it is out. I needed to get it out so I can have a little more room to move around and actually get the driver door all the way open. I have some wires to hook upm fluids to change, the interior to finish buttoning up and the exhaust and all should be GRAND!

Here are all the photos for today.

The last one is showing a bumper sticker that I acquired from a DPS employee...

I have SPARK! no fire though... might be because the gas tank is empty! Ha ha ha... I am running to get gas now.

We'll see what happens when I get back.

Good luck with it....you are more than welcome to point it north and stop by (or you can just call, instead).

I would come by but I need to make sure that the small trips are good for now before I commit to making on that far. Once I have made a drive to your place I know the car has had a good shake down and should be good for any distance. So far there is one little water leak. No big deal I will block that off tomorrow. I also have to install the radio (once I have plug ends with wires) , bleed the brakes and then a full wash, wax and thurough inside cleaning.

The turn signals are not working at the moment but I am sure that is the multiswitch. Good thing I have like 5-6 of hose.

It does run by the way!

Here is a picture I took of the fan turning... The damn SSP 3 core radiator is minus the petcock (sp) to keep the coolant in. The smaller radiator ones don't fit so I had to use a newer stock V8 one.

Incredible amount of work in a short period of time.
