Some of our attention has been diverted to another project but we have made some headway on some sheet metal and windows.
With some pretty heavy modifications the one piece windows are in.

Billet hinges

Here is a shot of the top of the inner fender overlay

Lots of cutting, grinding, welding and filling later......

Pedal assembly/firewall (Danny is going to shoot me for posting pics before he was able to smooth the welds)

Cowl vents removed

Can you or info on the mods to the door to accomodate the one piece door glass? How are you reinforcing the door shell?

The tracks were pretty heavily modified in order for the window to roll down all the way but the door itself doesn't have any extra reincorcement.


Big changes in the transmission department. Modern Driveline helped us out on a T56 Magnum, Quicktime bell housing and a McLeod clutch.

The car is at Magnaflow right now getting the exhaust fitted. They are using a oval x-pipe to keep the exhaust from hanging too low.

J, Looks great, what is that bar going from the firewall to the front in the right side of the picture? Any more pictures of the engine compartment with the braces?

 

[TCI Engineering]

There are 5 bars total in the engine compartment. There are a few pictures of them on the first page.

When I look at this car I just want to throw rocks at mine...

Very nice! When does it get get painted?

Are you going to be offering those bars as a kit to add to the TCI front suspension conversion? It looks sweet!

That would be nice to get some of them.

The bars on this car will only fit the '67. We ended up making some for the early cars about a year ago but each time they still required "cut to fit". We had sold a few of them but we were losing money each time. They'd have to sell for $700+ (plain) for us to make it worth while.

Ryan @ Stang-Aholics would offer a group buy if demand is high enough but that is up to him.

how about a cut and weld together kit? That would make it fit more years , correct?
Just a thought.
I'd buy one

What I'd really like to see them do is adapt the adjustable down bars we use on the Novas onto the Mustang, Fairlane and Falcon front ends. It may not be as many bars but it would certainly be a lot easier to package and much less expensive.

The body is on the rotisserie so Danny can smooth out the floor boards. It seems like a waste of time to me but it's not my car so what can you do.
