GIRLS HELPING!!

Need to give the girls some credit too! They are always helping their DAD!

1.5" Pie Cut Hood

Pie cut hood 1.5" for a more aggressive stance and to better proportion the front end to the chopped roof and custom bed.

Material to remove painted red.



After cutting



Starting to form the upper and lower sections of the hood together




Made several cuts to allow the corners to expand out to the lower section.



Initial welding



Sandblasting hood.

Body work on the underside of hood.

Hood stripped and ready for body work.

Tunnel Cover

Modified tunnel cover to clear the T-5 transmission.

1-Piece Side Window

To allow the use of a 1-piece side window the upper down hinge was trimmed ~1", the door hinge cavity was trimmed ~4" and the window channels were straightened.

Factory curved window channel for side glass with wing vent window.


One side of the window channel straightened to allow the use of a one peice window and no longer have a wing vent window.


Both sides of window channel straightened and welds ground down.

4-LINK and C-CHANNEL

Custom triangluated 4-link suspension with 1.5" DOM tubing and 1.125" threaded ends connects the Mustang 8.8" rearend with Lincoln disc brakes to the frame. The frame rails have been C-notched to clear the axle and the middle crossmember has been C-notched to clear the driveshaft. Current plan is to run QA1 adjustable coilovers in the rear. Waiting for wheels, tires and Phatman Fabrication drop spindles prior to installing the coilovers so the desired stance/ride height is acheived.

REAR FENDERS

Body work complete on fenders.
