I painted the headers. It's tight but they fit. I want to get it running and check for problems before I get them coated.

LOL ------ I have custom made stainless steel big tube headers on the '65 Mustang track car --- I've never changed the plugs on the car... I wait until the end of each season and they pull the motor to refresh it.....

After a little modifying of the headlight buckets I got the headlights with built in turn signals to fit.

I hooked up the battery in the trunk (I still need to hook up the ground cable to the engine) to see what works. The Ron Francis trunk mounted battery kit has two ground gables one small short one that I have going to the body and a large long one that they want mounted to a bell housing bolt. So far the AC 3 blower speeds work, taillights, turn signals, and headlights.

I have a problem with the lights in the dash flashing when the key is off and the steering column harness is hooked up.

Tail lights look nice and bright! Coming along nicely, Rusty!

I installed the battery ground cable from the trunk mounted battery to the engine block and cured most of my electrical problems.

We have been busy working on customers cars and I haven't posted in a long time so it's time to show a little progress on the 68 Coupe.

Test fitting the TMI interior.

I loaded in the trailer and moved it back to the shop so we can get this project on the road early next year.

I like the color combination for the interior. I think it goes well with the red. Good luck finishing it up, Rusty.

I ordered a remote oil filter kit and when it came in it had large 12 straight o ring fittings with a barbed end the wouldn't clear the frame rail after a long search I found what I needed at Phenix Industries and ordered an adapter that reduced the hose to 10AN with 90 fittings. I was impressed with their products and decided to be a dealer. Nick made the new oil line and mounted the filter on the fender apron.
