    Got the TKO bolted in

    Installed the upper crossmember, the tranny finally in position, the ebrake lever custom fitted to clear the pipes with new welded cable stop, exhaust mocked up.  As soon as the new mufflers get here, I will weld them to the h-pipe and intermediate pipes.  Will be using modern style exhaust hangers from 2010 Mustang.

    Next is the fitment of the tunnel sheetmetal cover and shifter hole.  I will be using a modified 93 Fox shifter seal between the tunnel and the TKO shifter.  Then seam seal everything, paint and undercoat.  All just one more step closer to the bash trip.

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.

     I I get some parts orders after the 1st of the month, I will order the Vintage Air in-dash AC system.  Business is slow this week.

    Nice work, it looks clean.  I know that would have been a real pain to do if you didn't have that lift.

    Impressive.  Most judicious use of little space available!    

    Once you get all that done, and realize its got so much power it wont hook up, youll be tubbing it and installing some type of 4 link.

    Then you will be WIDENING Bullet wheels.  LOL

    If multiple things can go wrong, the one that will go wrong will be the one that causes the most damage.
