If you are doing the headliner, I would replace the rear window seal too.

I don't think it is possible to reuse the window gaskets. Most have to be cut out to properly remove the glass anyways. New gaskets should always be used when re-installing glass. The last thing you want is a leaky windshield or back glass. Good luck with that.

found one at technaglass for $97.00 ordered front and rear gasket's and clips from mustangpartshouse $61.00

found a place to install the headliner for $150 seem's a little high for not willing to even look at the glass. and technaglass want's 75 to put the glass back in. ill just cut out the glass.

im thinking of doing something like this for my front end.
http://www.totalcontrolproducts.com/fcoc-fd.html

will coilover's really make that big of differance?
i think instead of spending 3grand on it ill buy tube upper and lower control arm's and get coil over's and make some bracket's for it.


it's got a date with the upholstery shop on friday. it will be windowless for a few day's till the gasket's get in.

i also picked up electronic ing setup, just stock.
but i really want a DUI


im still lost on what to do about a motor.
i want to pull the motor out of the bronco and throw it in it.
but that's alot of work and just love that motor!
but also like the 289 so was thinking throw a bigger cam and intake and header's on it. what's a good setup? would like around 3-400 hp.


the 351w has, mild cam,double roller timing chain, chrome ollie push rod's and pump shaft,HV oil pump, board 30 over, flat top speed pro piston's, heavy duty roller rocker's, ARP bolt's, 4 bolt main's, gt-40 head's, i got a thunderbird efi setup on it. but will have have air gap manifold and 700CFM carb if it go's in the mustang. or keep the Tbird efi on it. lol

Those kits I'm sure are excellent but I think they are overpriced. It's a nice option if you cash to burn.
