Looking good. That first shot of the car is really really cool.

Everything is super mint and nice and well done

I just can't get down with the blue lights on a car like this

they actually light up amber, I use them for turn signals.

did i see this eleanor on a tractor trailer car hauler on interstate 95 in massachusetts today ??? it had new york plates on it and looked amazing

nope, no trailers for my car.

You def have some competition in NY then haha it looked good i stopped and looked at it while at the rest area it was def clean i did notice it did not have piaa's but everything looked right and the fitment of the body stuff was id say a 95 out of 100

some fun shots of the engine bay

[kaidotech]

Damn. New meaning to put in work lol

[BigRed]

yea ive put about 200 miles on the car with no hood. Ive driven by a good amount of cops too.

got the last fitting for the heater hose and got that on, I also put a fresh coat of paint on the engine bay, I decided to go with a dark charcoal rather than flat black like everyone else. At this point its pretty much done, I have a set of headers im gonna install and do some other little odds and ends to tidy up some stuff, Once I pull this motor I will fully shave the bay and weld up all of the holes but for the most part that's it.

got the car on the road today, Still a few loose ends to be squared away but otherwise its good. Car sounds more healthy,runs smooth, the throttle response is amazing and over all it pulls real nice.

Cops must be lax around there. I drove for 2 min with no hood and got pulled over

Badass car, sounds good. Whats up with the custom wires? For the right length and less mess?

[BigRed]

TCP strut tower brace on. I also installed a MSD cap/ custom made wires.

I spent that last couple days building and adjusting the throttle cable set up. I started with a universal Lokar cable and modified it to fit.

the first issue being the 67 mustang never came with a throttle cable but with a throttle linkage , so I had a 69 gas pedal in the parts box that would work a bit better. I had to cut off the factory end and make my own to work with the Lokar cable tho.

stock

mine



cut the cable/ housing to fit on my bracket I made.



one thing I liked about the lokar cable is that it had tons of adjustment on both ends of the cable and the housing. So this allowed me to not only adjust where the throttle started/ ended but also the pedal height. Once this was done and I had the pedal where I wanted it I decided it was too soft, so I needed to add a return spring, after trying a couple different lengths and resistances I found one I was happy with. So not only are the pedals more even( before the gas pedal was way down and the clutch stuck out.) but the amount of pressure needed is exactly what I want. This should make the car much more enjoyable to drive now.
