Update 13

Cut the brace out of the bottom of the tunnel

 

 

 

New Brace is in

 

 

Tunnel is back in and welded up a lot of work but got it down to almost stock height

 

 

Got the new drive by wire pedal assembly mounted

 

 

Holes are all welded up and started smoothing the firewall up

 

 

Transmission is in place and the mount we made is a removable one its all welded in now

 

 

 

Update 12

The Door gaps on most of these Mustangs are so tight drives me crazy so had to modify them a little. This one is halfway done but you can still frr how tight the bottom is.

 

Now that looks better a lot of grinding and welding. Takes some time to make it look right but I like it much better,

 

 

Here is how tight the drivers door was after moving it as far forward as i could and keeping everything in line

 

 

Got this side almost done will finish tomorrow just the bottom part left to do

 

 

The factory Stainless Headers need a little modifying I was gonna use the Dougs but found out they wont work with the Automatic they would have to be modified also so made the factory ones work. the drivers side fit s great just need to cut the bottom flange and turn it.

 

 

The drivers side need a bit more work I turned the bottom flange also. Then had to pie cut all 4 tubes near the head flange bend the header down and weld back together fits great now. I even think I might be able to pull the motor in and out with them on that would be a plus we will see soon.

 

 

 

Update 11
