    67 Super Snake Project

    Bad picture, but I mounted the FE motor mounts. Not sure if it is correct because the motor mounts did not bolt in without a lot of adjustments. The frame holes did not align. I had to grind down the outer side of the mounts, probably because I welded in the lower shock tower bracing. And they...

    67 Super Snake Project

    I put the carpet on the interior wheel wells. And then I cut the interior rear quarter panels to allow for the tubbed rear end. Took my time and this is what I came up with. Note how I cut it forward and then back at the mounting place for the rear seat. BTW, these panels are not bolted in yet...

    I purchased a 1 5/8" holes saw to cut the holes for the new interior lamps. Let me tell you, it was not an easy task installing them. I used a rat tail file to remove all the extra plastic, crimped the new light holder tabs down, and still had a difficult time installing them. I think that 1...

    67 Super Snake Project

    I insulated the fuel lines and battery cable with a radiator hose cut in half and stuck it through the cross brace to eliminate any chafing. I then installed the heat shields that I fabricated to help reduce the heat from the headers. This should help keep the fuel cooler! I...

    I mounted the new transmission crossover. Bolted it in and had to drill out to 1/2" for the new grade 8 bolts to help handle the horsepower. A piece will be welded in place that mounts up to the trans when I get the engine/transmission in place.

    I found this paint at Home Depot. It is Rustoleum Hammered Finish. I am very pleased with because it gives you a finish very close to original. I started with the sanded overhead rear piece with absolutely no finish and got this finish Rear Inside corner

    Sanded off many years of paint and and re-furbished the rear vent boxes. Put on new vent slides. These slides are on backwards. I removed them and put them on correct.

    I started fitting the rear seat. If you tubbed the rear end, you must cut the rear seat. The best way to preserve the hinge mounts and end of the first fold is to cut it in the middle. Yeah, that's right. Two cuts. And then weld it together. My fenders measured only 39" clearance and the panel...

    I installed the Hydraulic Clutch Master. But I had to make some modifications to the input shaft and the stock mustang adjustable brake push rod. The stock Mustang push rod adjuster is a bigger diameter/thread than the input shaft coming out of the master cylinder. And the input shaft is too...

    All this work allowed me to start the dash. Everything needs to be installed in this order. I installed the dash pad from dashesdirect.com and it is very high quality . Fit is excellent, I only had to cut two little pieces off the upper ends (by the windshield) with a pair of scissors to make...

    67 Super Snake Project

    I finished all the auxiliary wiring that I could. Like wiring the trans tunnel, but from the inside so that there are no wires in the engine compartment. The center console will cover up any deformities in the carpet, and I cut the hole way forward.

    I mounted the gas pedal and Locar throttle cable. I had to make a "Z" bracket to get the gas pedal off the floor for clearance.

    Here is the wiring schematic for using the Shelby gauges from Unique Performance and splicing it to an original or Painless wiring harness. Painless uses the same colors as the original Mustang harness.

    Finishing up the wiring (except for the gauges and center console), I checked all the relays and circuits. Horn works, high beams, low beams, fog lights, A/C works (blower 3 speeds and electrical to the switch on the pressure side of the cooler for the compressor clutch), back up lights (with...

    Well I got a surprise. The parking lights do NOT stay on when switch is pulled out to the second position. So... I now have low beams ALL the time the car is started. I don't mind. But all the lights up front and in back work. Those sequential rear turn signals are trick!! I finished the...

Just a note on wiring, I am using the parking/running lights to power the...
