Now to charge the battery and hopefully knock this out today.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...742d027a53.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...e090bc6e55.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...aa02464e2d.jpg

Your key opens the trunk.

Spray it with penetrating oil.
A little bit of AeroKroil will do it wonders!!
So small bit of progress. Picked up a new battery. Got the throttle body installed. Cold air up next. Have to get hardware for it since the factory stuff doesn't work to mount the mass air to the cold air kit. Also got the hood latch assembly mounted and the honeycomb insert on. Baby steps lolhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...b1fd550ba3.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...4a6402846e.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...ca273d6544.jpg

Drilled out the rivets now i just need to pick up some hardware to mount them. Then i can reinstall the bumper cover and have it fully secured. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...b991963ab8.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...9c14da6607.jpg

Some people shouldn't touch cars or anything mechanical for that matter! Ive seen that happen more than once.
I agree man. It's an easy enough fix. Just not something I was expecting to have to do lol. Like I said next time i will definitely be looking at the posts.Quote:

Couple surprises from the wife showed up today. Thanks to her the hood is mounted and I really dig the hood struts. She ordered the chrome cap for the radiator overflow also. But it's on back order so it should show up in a week or so. Plan for tomorrow is to get the front of the car up and mount the windshield washer bottle. Plus get the front bumper back on. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...36a4e9caa7.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...a7b7e013ef.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...e2b7ef32ad.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...5f1c4b30fd.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...1905d9fa2c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...3768e10798.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...b0a0fd39fb.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...2e20c7c55d.jpg

Baby steps continue. Wash fluid bottle in and all hooked up. Plus the bumper is mounted with all the right hardware now. Need to put the actual hood latch on and run the cable next. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...de223ff3a7.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...df0b695b67.jpg

Nice!
So after almost 4 years of living in my neighborhood. I find out there is another mustang guy up the street from me. Walking the dogs every day out of boredom I've actually had a chance to meet some of the neighbors lol. Long story short. My new friend had this breather sitting on his tool box for the last 2 years. He gave it to me since he had no use for it. Super nice of him. Told him he has to come down forca few beers after all this virus stuff is over.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...e0848b302f.jpg
