Don't tell me you haven't put some of that motor building knowhow into making it a runner.

Thank you. No morgage $$ left after my racing career I have only put oil and spark plugs in this engine, but did do other stuff to the car myself.

Now update us on your Torino

Hey hey now easy we don't want any trouble round these parts

Haven't done anything exciting. Just ordered some parts and firmed up some decisions.

Spoke to Tarrant T at Del Mar Goodguys about my front brake set up which I'm going to order next week.

Bought an NRG 2.8 quick release and short hub for my steering wheel.



Bought a set of gauges from Speedhut since they were having a 20% off sale in March. I'm finalizing the design of them right now. This is close to what they will be.



Bought a wheel fit tool and have rounded up a couple of used tires for mock up and wheel measurements. I'm going to get my brake parts on, measure and order wheels.

Ordered my Peterson spline drive hub and stackers so I can star making brackets for my KSE PS/Fuel pump and my alternator. The parts are on backorder so probably 3 more weeks before I get the Peterson stuff.

Got some work done on Cheryl's Bronco so soon I'll be free to spend more time on the Torino

I dig those gauges. Also, I forgot, maybe you mentioned it earlier, but which wheels did you decide on?

I'm thinking the gauges fit the vibe of the car.

Matt on the wheels there is only one option INTROS.

Shouldn't the speedo go to 220mph?

Add a couple Bowtie emblems and they'd be damn near perfect!!
