    We custom made the quadrant on the right side of the clutch shaft assembly...not a minor modification. We have access to a bridgeport, and a drill press both of which we required to make this modification, also we had to relocate the wiper motor bracket because it was hitting....This was a big hurdle for this car. We spent at least a week on that part of this project. We do have some pictures if you are interested. Let me know if you need to know any more...:D

    Thats a great looking car you have...I would do pink like that!...Did you have to make any changes to the rear of the car to get that wide of a tire under the back of your car?....Your car has a very nice stance to it, and I love that color scheme...(y)

    Well, its not pink :rolleyes: everybody that has seen the car says it it :evilsmile but it ain't :cry: :cry: :D
    I am actually thinking of using the same colors and flip-flopping the light "purple" :p and black when I repaint it :D

    Nothing special on the rear end. Its a 9 inch (coil-over/ladder bars) but (I believe :hmmm: ) its the same length as a stock maverick.

    Nice one belt setup, but it looks like apulley is missing, is it? If that is a March pulley system, do you have a part number?

    I dont think so.:hmmm: ...no pwr steering in my car...maybe thats the one your thinking of...This is a pully set up for a newer 302. I think I have a part number at home, it is a March pulley system. I will try to remember to take a look tonight. :bouncy:

    The console looks like its from a 69 firebird. You are right it does fit nice.

    If is a newer 302 setup than I can't use it. I have power steering too.

    Yea, my motor is a roller 302 h.o. out of a Lincoln LSC..(mustang motor, basically)....and I think you can get a kit that works with power steering...they were kinda expensive for something you can hardly see with my alum rad, and electric fan setup...but at least I know they are there...:bouncy:

    Thanks for checking that out for me. I'm going to keep my v-beltsetup, but I will try to piece at March pulley system together. Maybe it will be a little cheaper, MAYBE
