Default 1968 Wimbleton White Mustang

Almost got it all done. Took about 5 hours, but got the new Big ***** Thumper cam in, new wheels and tires on.

Next up, new coil to replace the new coil I bought last summer ( Dang thing is worthless.) Sometimes it wouldn't start. Much less trying to get it started when hot. Then mustang style ladder bars. I have been doing a Thumper to put on the rear, having it printed up..

Any suggestions from you guys out there what else I need to do ?

Nice looking car. I am not a fan of stickers or decals on a car, but as long as you like it, it doesn't matter!

I will say that I have the ***** thumpr cam and am not crazy on the drive ability (it sounds good as hell though and the performance isn't bad either). It's almost too much for my T5 tranny and cruise ability. What are you running with the big ***** thumpr? One thing that I would say is that I noticed a HUGE difference with putting a MSD dizzy and MSD 6AL box in the car. Pertronix is ok, but the MSD stuff solved a ton of spitting and spuddering.

The window decal was just on for the photo shoot. I have not quite figured out where to relocate the bypass resistor to yet.Still have to clean up the wiring when I get a chance. The transmission is a C4 with a 2800 stall converter in it and a race shift kit.
It would not run hardly at all with the pertronix style coil on it. I put a accell super sport and it runs a lot better.
