The 347 engine was started on a test stand with a carburetor to check for any leaks or problems



Installing the engine



We still have to install the transmission

Gorgeous. I'm really liking the paint choice and the fact that you painted the engine bay the same color.

I heard this rumble go by the house and I was surprised to find out it was Chad with his 66 Mustang. I haven't heard from him since he picked it up and he has driven it over 500 miles and is very happy. He had the windows tinted and the trunk finished.
