its gonna be 78 here today... I bought my first Ford since High School when I found a 70 V8 car. It ran,well it moved under it's own power. But I have performed a total disassembly. I have rebuilt a 351 W for it, rebuilt the C4, converted it to a 9" with spool and 4:11. It will be painted red with black interior. I added the grabber hood form Unlimited and purchased a stencil kit to put the 70 stripes on the side and 71 pattern on the hood. Rebuilt the front end, brakes and rear suspension, I also welded in the comp eng sub frame connectors that are for a 1st gen camaro and added a drive shaft safety loop. Now I am completing the body work and will hopefully have color on it before end of March. I am dying to start putting this thing back together!! All of the completed assemblies are crying out to be handled. I am trying to figure out how to upload some pics??
Welcome from the Phoenix area. If you want to see some more Mavs/comets you should drive up here on March 11th and join us at our Dyno Day event.
Thanks for the warm welcome! Can you send me some of the info on the event? Thanks! Thanks! Combo.. Thanks Thanks Thanks
here is the first pic.. I will post more from my work computer tomorrow now that I have figured it out...
project pics I acually picked it up on a Tuesday if I remember correctly...mid August of last year Then that weekend a buddy of mine and myself started tearing it apart, with the intention of media blasting the body the next week. I attached some pics of the media blasting (80 grit garnet inside and bottom with walnut outside skins)
Craig.. I purchased some parts for it form you...spoiler, sport mirrors, truck lid insert brackets... Great service!!
