Can't wait to get this thing done!

Thanks everyone, we are happy to have that part done. Still working on her. Got my "basline suspension" copy done, for upper control arms. Made this same set up for the 93 and it worked really well, so we fabbed one up for Rusty too.



Here it is installed, hard to get a good shot cause it's so far up in there, but you can get the idea.

I quess interior and motor. If we sell the Piranah we could get a nice motor

Got the lower control arms fabbed up and installed...



Got all of the weatherstripping installed, not real happy with all of it, what a total PITA. I dunno if it is the kit we picked or maybe they are all that way. Took extra weatherstripping and about 4-5 hours of flooding the car and messing around to get it right. Thank god it didn't have any interior in it. Also the doors fit really tight now, hard to open and close, hoping that will break in some.





Got some of the inner supports on the doors...



Got the plastic trimmed to fit over the tubs, now we can get together with the upholsterer and get the back seated nootched to fit the tubs and he can het sewing. Gonna paint all of the interior plastic peices.

wow looking good. What name is the kit you bought? I'm scared to plunk down the cash as it is, nevermind not having it fit right!

This one was from Fox Mustang Restoration, I have since found out that there is another company called Soff Seal making one as well.

You are going to sell the Pirahna??? If you did that the engine would be tits!!! So would the trans! lol Looking good! Hey PM me the price that Uncle Ray charged per wheel for widening. I may get this done to M's GT. He stopped out here last week on his way to take Brian to colorado and he could not remember what he charged. Thanks!

Pruitt charged $250.00/4 to cut and Ray charged $315.00/4 to weld.

Starting to collect motor parts, thought this was note worthy. Found this company called CFR got a very nice quality power steering pump bracket for $58.99 compared to $104.98 from March. They are having a sale right now on deep sump oil pans with the tube for $129.00 gonna order that as well.
