A good buddy came over and we installed a pair of Maximum Motorsports adjustable rear lower control arms, FMS headers and Motorsports wires on one of my cars. It was a good day in the garage. Going to look at a sweet Calypso 93 LX for The Wife next weekend.

Went to the junkyard with some local Fox boby freaks and got a bunch of small odds and ends

4 TPS
1 IAC
1 SHO shift knob
1 coil cover
lots of light bulbs

Total spent, under 8 bucks and all the parts are like new.

That's the one. I've got a friend with an "in" at the dealership. We'll see what happens. I'm not going to pay what they're asking, but I'm sure a wad of cash will smooth things over.

Moved into my new house and the Mustang finally has a nice garage. I epoxied and clear coated the garage floor using the Rustoleum stuff. Once it's done curing in a few days the 5 lug swap begins!

After:


It's a man cave/workshop in progress

That garage looks sweet man congrats!

I removed my cluster today to replace a blown turn signal bulb and upgraded all the illumination bulbs (6) to LED, much brighter.

I have an 81 Capri RS with the L6 (200 CI). I need a rear differential cover with only 8 holes instead of the usual 10 holes. I don't know what vehicle the rear end may have come from but I can't find anything online or in stores except for the gasket, can you point me in the right direction?

Lately I had my MM SFCs installed, installed new OEM Ford window and lock switches with bezels, new headlights, straightened out my pinch welds (were bent to crap by a PO) gutted the rear interior to install a set of refinished quarter windows, and then will be doing a 5-lug swap. Oh and we're in the process of buying our first house, so I finally get my own garage!

This reminds me of a nice day in Gothem City


Nice, straight pinch weld


Interior needs cleaned, but there's my new switches
