the work is no problem really, it's just the money to get it done. the left rear fender well needs to be straighten out, the rust hole in the cowl and god know's where else. and that window. yeah car would be good for a sleeper lol. shity car=nasty motor lol.

but things might be taking a turn, i might be getting another chassie. it's gonna be a bit heavier but alot nicer and complete

 

u going to run power windows or manual with these s/n95 door panels? when u start doing the swap take some pics and post them up.

 

the dash is in and working been in for a min now and im running power windows with stock sn95 switches

 

i like the sn95 inter. it just seems to wrap around you lol.

 

teah it does and the center console is nicer and with the panels done right it feels like a cock pit and if you do a t-bird the dash looks great in them

 

not sure if the t bird is gonna happen. not really all that upset about it though. i'd rather get a 4 eye coupe going or an sn95. but there is a build i have been wanting to do for a few years now. i want to drop a 302 in a ford probe and convert it to rwd. lol. i think it would be bad ass. but dont see that happening anytime soon.

 

motor is 100% broken down. got real lucky with the cam bearings, they are in really good shape. piston rings are fine as well. i will be posting up some pics later on tonight.

 

well this is what it looked like befor the mild rebuild




and this is the work in progress.

 

got alot of shit done today on the 302. i did not have my camra with me though so it will have to wait till tomorrow to get updated pics.

full motor rebuild.
got all the cam bearing's replaced (not just the 1st and last one lol)
took a high power presure washer to everything and now you can see the motor and not all the grime and crap.
rebuilt the heads.
rod and main bearings will be put in tomorrow.
pistons look almost like new.
this weird scraper thing was taken to the very top of the cylinders to get rid of that lip that the top piston rings form.
new brass freeze plugs.
cylinders were ?hown'd? out.
i know im missing a thing or 2 but this thing might as well be a brand new f-ing motor.

tomorrow the crank is going to be touched up and cleand up.
and some minor modifications are going to be done to the intake manifold to give it a little more umf.
and we might have the thing going by the end of tomorrow night.

 

all in all it was a good day yesterday. got a shit ton done.
