This is about all I got for now,but will see improvements. It still needs some front end work but doesn't drive all that bad,considering that's only the second time it has been driven in years. The biggest things are, 1. Carburetor,Holley but hey,budget and that's what I had, 2.Power steering,the stock 14's weren't that bad to turn,but 17's take some more effort+fighting with#1... 3.Steering wheel,knee hits it everytime i go for the brake,if i ever find my adapter... The paint I didn't do,but I guess it could look worse,it's all the same which is new to me,on my vehicles there's always that one spot,and this is even all over,these pics were after about 5 miles in a light rain... The Flowmaster 10's sound great at idle,and sweet down the road but are a touch loud,even through all the insulation... Brake swap turned out awesome! As with the 69 mustang tank. Just happy it's all together and drives...
Thanks,I gotta say I've got some good friends that really helped a lot,family too... It's hard sometimes with life things,dr. visits,oh and being broke,but if you save parts long enough they'll eventually find a home... Good advice from all these folks on here helped immensely...
me too every time I get my car running I break something. I think 3 months is the longest stretch Ive ever went without either blowing up my engine tearing up my transmission or some other mechanical failure giving me crap when Im out of money then like a retard I tear the car further apart then I need to every time saying well while Im fixing that I might as well fix this too then it takes even longer to get back on the road lol
It's gonna be driven. It's pretty pointless to spend the time and 4 digit numbers to not use it. Will it break,sure but so will a new one... Done been that road,I'll build my own... I did it an hour at least a day,religiously,every day... There's something different to me about seeing the bolts in your hand... Guy the other day circled around and gave me a thumbs up , Thanks Y'all,..
17x9 rocket racing velocity wheels,unsure of back spacing but appears to be stock,were on it when I got it... He had late mustang wheels on it,but when it came off the jack stands it wouldn't budge because offset had the wheels in a bind with the body... Instead of cough up the cash to buy a set for me,he had these in boxes and a pretty good set of tires... 215/55-17 in front and 235/55-17 rear...
