Welp today was the first day I was able to staqrt stripping my little 4 cylinder pony down to get it ready for the fture v8 swap. Since I was on a time crunch before work I was only able to strip the whole interior w/ exception of the dash, pull the a/c, radiator and disco. everything from the harness w/ out even breaking anything. Damn suprized, even more so since I have gone hru the car to find no rust, floor pans in mint condition w/ a very virgin eingine bay "car has never been in an accident" even found enough change for 2 double cheese burgers to boot....

If I could get my roomies hoist to my friends house I would have the tranny and motor out tomarow So IM just gonna have to get that nasty dash out, brake lines drop the exhaust, and remove the one dented fender. As well pull everything out of the fender wells IM not gonna need, should be another quick 3 hrs if that.


BTW anyone know where I can get a 67 302 punched 30 over and heads boiled and cleaned as well???

 

oh man..... you just made me think about ripping my interior out.

 

Welp I dint get anything done yesterday like I planned. other than taking a better lok at teh car w/ a friend and making a few calls in ref. to parts I'm going to need. So heres just a few things. Need the GT brake lines, 5. rear, Sway bars, GT knuckles, and most importantly a GT wiring harness... If any one has anything that they are swiling to part w/ hit me off... As of right now We've located a new used dash and a set of 2 inch springs. Not bad in all, I think.
BigB I'll help ya for the trade of a big kids meal from McDoodles.

 

You might wanna try and call Coparts in Tampa...that's where my 92 Mustang LX 5.0, 5-speed went about three weeks ago...it was totalled. but all the drive train was good.

 

I'l have to do that, but I won't hold my breath to much.
Factoid: As soon as a 5 liter comes in, its parted out w/ in mere 48 hours or less.... That and Im sure foxbody pat just red that and will make a trip out there before I get a chance too....

 

i got a double cheese burger and fries with your name all over it

 

the adjuster said it would take a few weeks to get a salvage title so who knows it may still be in one piece.. it was dark green LX hatchback.

 

Its a hike from Largo, but I'll check into it... Thanks for the info... But I also need to find a good Machine shop because, I have a 67' 302 block that I need to have bored n all... As well I have matching 67' heads that need to be cleaned up that I'm not going to use if anyone is intrested...
