New member with Boss project (pics)
I just came across this forum. I am building a Boss project which is just about done. Attached are some pictures.
1969 mustang with Boss 557 (Kaase Heads) 800 HP. Heidts front end and 4 link rear, TKO 5 speed, hydraulic clutch, 4 wheel disc brakes.
Should be done in the next two weeks and am considering heading to Good Guys show in Bowling Green

That is one sweet car!!! Excellent work! I can't even imagine how much you have dumped into that thing. All the parts I can see look like they are the best money can buy. Are you completely finished? It looks like you have a little more to go. Great job, and great car!

Sweet car! I'd love to see that in person. I'd like to see more pics of the engine bay and know about problems encountered and solved fitting everything. Compliments on the interior, looks like some fine work on the dash and a custom center console.
Please do share, for instance my project is at the beginning and one of the best ways to move ahead with custom work is to take several ideas and let them bear fruit for new ideas.
Oh, and welcome to the forums!

Thanks for the welcome
I appreciate the welcome. I have a great deal of before, during and finished pictures so if you need to see something let me know.
There is a roll cage and the frame is connected. The drive train was bought through "The Driven Man". The shifter actually came through the stock openning.
Here's a few construction pics:

I was wondering where all that was hidden. He said he has a hydraulic clutch, one looks like a vacuum resevoir and another looks like the front to back brake adjustor. There's a heck of a lot of work in there.

Love the the tubes and engine compartment sheet metal around the radiator and aprons.
