ya, i have a few pics of the car in work. I have a few posted in my gallery at Mustang Life Accessories Products Parts Articles Videos Forums but haven't updated them lately. MY progress has been extremely slow and i'm still a long way away from safely driving this pony on the streets. I...
pulled the bumper brackets off and discovered the bolt holes are elongated from rust eating up the brackets so I think I'll just toss them and by new ones, they're only about $10 ea at mustangsplus,mustang depot etc. BUt till then I can always just cruise without the front bumper.
well I finally got the mastercylinder installed, still need to bleed the system though. I pulled the front wheels and painted the front drums, removed and painted the front bumper corner braces and maybe tommorrow I'll get the front bumper mounting brackets painted as well. Discovered the rubber...
got my last brake line in this afternoon, discovered that i need a different adapter to connect the mastercylinder to the brake line. Finished cleaning and painting the driveline although I think while it's out I'll get the u-joints replaced then throw it back up.
Finally it seems like i'm...
how about a t5 manual conversion and 3.55-3.73 ls rear gear to turn the bigger wheels easier, or the rear valance for the gt with dual exhaust exiting through it,shelby front valance with or without bumper looks good either way :shrug:
even just new stock gt leafs with 235 60 14's on the rear and 205 70 14's front create that appearance and both tires are almost the same outer diameter with the 235's obviously being wider and it still handles decently
quick update.
All I had time to do today was to install my new brake lines going across the rear axle and jacked the front end of the car up alittle higher and placed 4"thick concrete blocks under the front jack stands to allow more room under the car, still have to raise the rear and then...
got my shocks installed on the rear today finally, still need to clean up the driveline and readjust the rear brakes so I can bleed them off after reinstalling the brakelines/mastercylinder of course.
sounds like you need to build a shop or attach a carport to your garage. If the 89 runs good just use it for a cruiser and work on the 70 when you get done with the 70 move back over to the 89 and start working again.
some more minute progress to my car, I finally got the gears in my head turning tonight and thought of a way to remove my old shocks. Everytime I tried to loosen any of the nuts the whole shock would turn and not loosen. I put a c-clamp around the top and let it wedge against my exhaust pipe and...
that would really suck. I have had insurance on my car since the minute I loaded it on the trailer to bring it home. Unfortunately it is still sitting on the trailer in my back yard all torn apart.
does your car have all the pedals inside it? And what about the mastercylinder was it still with the car? I think the cars that had powerbrakes the pedal said power brake or something on it to that nature, from the discription from vin I would guess it was probably manual brakes but I'm not the...
That's a mean looking cat you got! As of now I'm not planning to run anything bigger than 15" wheels/tires. Been looking at AR torq thrust d's with center's painted to match final color of car.:shrug:
