This was supposed to be an easy car..

I got involved with this car because I thought it would be a mostly bolt-on deal. I didn't really need another full-tilt project.. I needed to straighten out some stuff with work and I had just enough time to compile a list of parts and install them and send it on it's way. Not my luck, I guess.

The headers didn't fit the late model AOD-E. The transmission mount I ordered hit the transmission case, and is way too low still. The bolt-on exhaust for a 1967 Mustang hits the driveshaft tunnel.. so it needed to be cut down. The aftermarket wiring didn't accomodate any kind of electronic shifting.. and didn't use a MAF sensor. I couldn't find someone who made an alternator only accessory drive that had a water pump pulley with ribs..

etc., etc.
Nature of the game, right? If I can figure out photobucket links, I'll show you some of what has kept me busy and how this Mustang has been coming along..
