bit more done ,got muffler and tailpipe sorted under rear skirt/valance? ,started sorting oil pipes/hoses on engine and tank.
NO one in my country can swage the 30mm hoses (too large) so talked to a good friend and he supplied me with a worn out set of hydraulic dies from his company,I intend to have these modified to copy the Cohline swage....only option @ this stage. PO had added the tailpipe but fitted it to the muffler poorly so moved it around to fit the valance better...good result. Its a bit dented and rough but has good bones,dated 1974 so think its off the first of the 2.7 cars. |

I hope you had a jack stand under there too! My crew dropped my car at the track in December when jacking off the paddock grass/dirt. Thank God nobody had legs or bodies under the car. Just sayin' that looks scary... Tony One of my neighbors died last year under his Mustang. A $10 jackstand would have saved his life. |

A $10 jackstand would have saved his life. all good was moved in that pic had a car dump on me once..not going to repeat that,appreciate the concern thanks,got the tank to engine suction line sorted and ready to swage. Return pipe is 911 type so the male end needs to be sweated off and the pipe cut straight to the tank return,not a big issue. However the 45 degree sweep fitting from the tank hits the engine lid release cable conduit so I think the oil tank is too low (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) . |
