Before & After

[Maximus]

Finally finished up Clay bar'n the Mustang and eventually, Ill get back to actually working on it. Till then, Im trying to get the new house and garage to where I want them.

Clay bar'd the engine compartment...




Anyone have the piece that goes in this factory scoop or know where to find one?

Thanks!

Looks real clean under there!

have you tried late model restoration for that piece yet, craig?

[Maximus]

I did, but I went through NPD. They were closer and a lil bit cheaper, so hopefully Ill have it tomorrow.

How about some updates? Did you borrow Shayne's Milk Stool? I want to see this thing make a pass this year.

[Maximus]

Sadly, its been on the back burner as we try and get our new house squared away. I also picked the Nova back up so that I can try and make SCT Bowling Green and LS-Fest this year.



I have to wrap my head around it as there is quite a few things left to do on it, but Ill get it done.

To quote Donald Sutherland from the movie Dirty Dozen, "They sure look pretty Colonel, but can they fight?"

Looks real nice. I love a garage that size. Just don't want the second mortgage that comes with it.

Keep us updated when you get back on it after the honey do list is completed. Happy wife.....happy life!

I told her I was going to close her side of the garage in and install a lift, but she put her foot down.

I attended LS-Fest with the Nova and got it down to a PB of 8.72@159 and a few other 8.7s. Its a pretty fun ride, but kinda, shift once and hang on. So when I got home, I decided to get back on the Mustang as hanging the tires and banging gears is something that I have really missed. I have not set a deadline, however, I will set smaller goals in order to achieve the overall goal of having it running sooner than later.





Im having some tire, clearance issues, so Ill be hitting up the Fab shop to have some mods done. Nothing crazy as I want to keep the back seat.




I REALLY miss my lift.

Looks so damn good!!!

I think its going to go back under the cover so that I can get a lift installed. I tried laying on the ground last night and I couldnt get motivated to do shit under there. LOL!!

Looks good Craig and I agree about the lift, I'm still doing everything from my concrete garage floor, it sucks.

[draggin50]

Every time I'm laying underneath mine, I end up taking a nap. No motivation here either.....

Im ordering a 2 post today, and cutting some concrete this weekend. Once we get the Posts mounted, Ill have my contractor come in and cut/re-do the ceiling so that I can lift a car up. My ceiling is 10', so I only need 2-2.5' of headroom.

Thats Logan's Grom, I just brought it back for him and he didnt leave me the key. Theres a video on my FB page, but not a public one.
