    I need seats.....whatcha got?

    5LiterCOOP + RED9250: thanks for posting those pics. I think they'd match my all black interior well. I guess i'm going to have to find a set for myself sooner than later!

    Project 81 Hack Job!!!!!

    Your black notch is sweet. It was one of the really clean notches that convinced me to take the plunge on a notch when I found my car. With two 5.0s though I feel guilty like I should let one go and the Hatch is fairly well done and i've owned it for almost 5 years while the notch is mostly...

    Project 81 Hack Job!!!!!

    You make a really valid point. Another thing that I keep coming back to is that if I sell my notch I won't stop thinking about getting another one down the road. The car I have now has alot of potential and is in overall excellent shape, it would be difficult to find another one in this...

    Project 81 Hack Job!!!!!

    I just finished redoing the upstairs bathroom in my house and i'm really pleased with it. Now that my entire upstairs has been redone it feels like a new house. I've been thinking of selling my notch to my brother to use the money to redo the kitchen which is the only thing left. As much as I...

    Project 81 Hack Job!!!!!

    Can't wait to see your next project. The house is important too, they very easily eat money faster than a car. Can't wait to hear your thoughts on the setup, if the motor in the notch ever went south I know this would be the first thing that creeped into my mind...

    Help! Can't get door open...

    I've had the door on my old '67 Dodge do this to me. Instead of using the tool I very gingerly used my fingers to pop out the plastic tabs, only damaged 1 or 2 on the whole panel. Go slow and you should be OK, maybe remove the passenger seat for additional clearance.

    What's the best option? Rebuild or Engine Swap?

    I've seen a couple on Kijiji for that price in town but the cheapest i've been able to find a used explorer engine is around $1200 GL with your move, are you sticking in Calgary or heading back up to Edmonton?

    this cant be safe.

    I've been toying with the idea of putting Nitrous on the Hatch. This makes me want to do it even more...

    HACK JOB SEE DAYLIGHT FOR THE FIRST TIME

    For the cost of widening the Cobras i'd rather have something different. Have you come across any aftermarket wheels that are in the running? I still feel like the right chrome wheel would just pop on your car! What type of paint did you use on the door locks? I've got the door apart on the...

    Never heard of it, sounds intriguing though... Let us know if you get one how you like it!

    ever pick up a fox for free?

    I got my old winter beater '87 LX 4 cyl Hatch for free because it needed brakes. Looks like a potentially good score if it's structurally OK.

    Looks siiiiiiiiiiiiiiick! I'm sorry to hear that, I seriously thought the black notch would end up for sale after all the effort you've put into "Hackjob". Regardless enjoy it this summer, can't wait to see the finished product!

    odd miss fire

    Did you double check your firing order? I've seen odd problems like this develop from switching two leads by mistake. The HO engine has a different firing order than your standard 5.0L 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8

    I have the Hurst Billet Plus and it was a vast improvement over the shifter that came with the T5Z.
