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.





Vintage LED turn signals are working







Headlights and turn signals are working

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.
