reenmachine said:Yes, but not on this car! I got the green fastback back on its wheels and added a nice SSBC Force 10 front brake kit that's compatible with the MII suspension. Now I have the blue fastback back from paint and it's its turn to get back on wheels. Once it is a roller, I'll rotate back to the 'vert and finish it up.

The undercoating wasn't so bad on the green car. I just used a scraper on the big stuff and then took it the rest of the way with a bunch of different wire wheels on an air die grinder.68Eleclone said:Looking good pete!
On the green fastback, what did you use to strip the undercoating on the bottom of the car? Is the undercoating the same for every mustang made?

The bulkheads all came from Classic Auto Air. They have a pretty complete selection. Most of the lines are hard lines I bent up myself from lines available from Classic Auto Air and the hoses I had crimped locally. I bought an assortment of ends from Classic Auto Air and went from there. They're really willing to go the extra mile for custom applications, and they're used to it since they mainly serve the street rod industry.xoxbxfx said:Where do you get the A/C hoses and the bulkheads? I like the shaved firewall

I want to shave the firewall. Im hoping they will sell me just the underdash stuff, Im gonna use the 4.6 compressor and condensor.

Obviously it is just an illusion.
The green car's interior will be saddle with some neat custom upholstery and a few other touches. Don't think it'll have a console though. Custom cluster, FR column, nice stereo, power windows, power door locks, etc.68Eleclone said:Wow Pete! the vert is looking good! Almost there!
I was looking at the Green fastback on your site, and it is looking real good! Any special plans for the interior of the fastback? I knew you were gonna put in power locks and windows, are you gonna use the same console you used in the red vert?

Yeah, it's like a tan interior with brown carpet & other trim. Looks nice with a green car.68Eleclone said:Saddle is like a brownish-type color, right?
