Cool I Have Much Work To Do...

After viewing the pics representing these old school ponies, I see I have a lot of work to do. I'm starting with a good base, including Edelbrock intake, carb, rocker covers, and, air cleaner. Additionally, there are long tube, ceramic coated Hooker headers, and, a 12v cooling fan with a shroud.

Unfortunately, there are wires and hoses laying everywhere, the block needs painting, and, the engine bay itself needs to be freshened up with a slick coat of paint.

Thankfully, my kid is a guru. He has this all figure out, and, planned for the winter months. He said he can even fab up some aluminum tube shock tower bracing complete with himes joint ends. It should look a bit more racy in time for the spring car shows.

What I'm lookin' like now...

Why not just get the factory type one peice export brace and a monte carlo bar? It looks much better and doesn't cost much? I like those valve covers!

May I ask where you got your air cleaner showing on thread 119? I did not want to bother you, but I have been looking all over on different sites and have not been able to find one. Can you reply back to Mustang1216688 on this site? Thank you.

Its a discontinued part from Ford Racing. They sometimes show up on Ebay.
