My 1987 Mustang Build
#12
My car used to be kept at the dealership all the time and i could work on it all the time but it needed to be moved for insurance reasons. I keep it in a storage shed about 15 mins away so I have to load and unload every time i work on it. I could keep it outside in a lot at the dealership but I'd prefer not to keep it out. I'll ger her done
#18
Thought I should update this. The car is back at the body shop for them to finish up their end of it. When I get it back it will be lose the AOD for a TKO600. Driving to the Chicago area on Saturday to pick that up.
EDIT:I finally got around to putting this on Youtube. It is my car at idle. This was made the day after I actually got to fire it up, that is why the car looks incomplete. Exhaust setup is what I pulled from my donor car minus the stock manifolds. It consists of Mac unequal length headers, o/r h pipe and some mystery Flowmasters( I dont know what they are)
