Detroit Area Mustang guys

Well more progress has been made!!! My line lock is just about finished, and the brakes are ready to be bled. All thats left is to run the wiring for it. The rear of the car is about 95% finished. I have to put the gear lube back in, Adjust the upper control arms and hook up the valve for the rear air bag in the spring. Once thats done, its time to (Groan) start cutting the interior to fit around the roll cage. I found more welding that needs to be done although not that much. Hopefully Ill have it ready by the first of may!!

I go to gratiot, well at least last summer I did, every friday and saturday night. There is about 10 or 12 of us all with 99+ cars that hang out in front of Biondes pizza. Mostly only go to woodward in august when the cruise fury is beginning. I love sitting on the balcony of Dugans with a beer watching the cars go by!
Yea i noticed 4 or 5 stangs in front of that Biondes place the other night. If I had a stang, id be there too... :( lol

Well hopefully I wont explode my transmission. Im thinking I should buy an extra one before I go, but I dont wanna buy a transmission and not use it. Especially a T45. But Ill let you know when bbq is, its always fun to have 20 mustangs in my driveway. My neighbors hate me heh.
 
Hey dale, where in dearborn heights do you live? Im in the river oaks complex right on evergreen between ford and ann arbor trail. Also i am lookin for a 94-5 gt for fairly cheap. It doesnt matter if it has an engine or trans but i need one for about 2500 or a lot less lol. So if anybody here sees one w/ no engine or trans in a junkyard or on the side of the road around here PLEASE let me know. thanks.

I live in the Ford/Beech Daly area. Id look on EBay, Can always find a deal on there.
 
Well , Made more huge progress on my car. Mechanical is almost entirely finished. All I have to do is fill the rear end, tighten the driveshaft and adjust the upper control arms. Computer is at T&J being reprogramed as we speak for the new gear, and the boost tube is on the bench awaiting the fight to put it back in. Should be driveable by friday, and out of the paint booth sunday afternoon with the interior ready to be put back together... Cant wait to drive this thing.. even driving it onto the trailer is going to be a treat!

Finally got my cage finished!!! Interior is ready to go back in!!! Only missed 2 weeks of racing... heh.. Drove the car around the block and have discovered that my line lock is still leaking and my rear end is messed up bad I think. Its making a really loud clunking noise, almost sounds like a rod knock so now Ive gotta take it back to the trans shop where it will probably sit for a week :(
