Very nice. Love this body style. I had a dynacorn door for a 68 camaro and i couldn't get it to fit. Things on the inside of the door were welded wrong. I ended up just fixing the original door.

You all are making it look too easy :thumbsup: :cheers:

As always amazing work. After seeing this you can imagine what the beginner home builder is going through.

We went to install the brake pedal and steering column bracket and it would not fit. The dash was installed wrong and had to be moved toward the firewall the bracket was 1" to short from lining up. We compared the distance from the dash to the firewall on my 68 Coupe to determine the dash was in wrong.

Something fits with just a little modification
The taillights fit after trimming the rubber seal a little http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...astback/98.jpg Once the holes on the fenders were elongated the headlight buckets fit http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...astback/99.jpg The amazing thing was after all the work on the door gaps the edge of the hood lined up with both headlight buckets from CJ Pony Parts. The Dynacorn headlight buckets have been on back order for over a month and I was told probably another two months before they would be available so we got them from CJ's. They are a little ripply and will require some blocking but they fit. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...stback/100.jpg |
We have been working on a couple of things I can't show at this time. A modified lower front valance and a future story in Modified Mustangs & Fords magazine showing a period correct looking hood latch with an under the dash hood release.
But I can show this http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...stback/114.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...stback/115.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...stback/117.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...stback/116.jpg |
I confess I'm not sure what you are showing us there - is that where you replaced the normal leaded seam with a flush welded panel ?
|
Looking forward to seeing this one built. :thumbsup:

This is what Brian has been fabricating. It is an under the dash hood release. The hood required a lot of fabrication along with this latch that came off of another Ford. To find out all the details you will have to read the build story in an upcoming issue of Modified Mustangs & Fords magazine.
