The newest addition the to stables is an 88 5.0L Mustang LX Convertable, purchased back in June 2007. I purchased this because they are dirt cheap and my wifes 1999 9-5 SAAB had broken down and she needed a car to drive. In September 2007 in finished fixing the SAAB and now the 88 5.0L LX Mustang Convertable is her spare car. I installed 2-1/2" DynoMax Super Turbo mufflers, Flowmaster tail pipes, Flowtech Intermediate pipes, and the Ford Motor Sports SSP Radiator Hose Kit. January 1, 2009, I installed the new white convertabe top. It took about 36 hours to install, that includes uninstalling it twice. The Top has a few wrinkles, but it's not bad for the first time installing a convertable top. Next will be a new heater core installation (Pull apart the dash wil not be fun.. |

The lates updates on the projects: 69 E220 Club Wagon The engine for the 69 Ford E220 Econoline is close to done. The Edelbrock 5.0L Performer heads are install on the 347 inch engine and I started the installation of the engine into the 69 Ford Van. I removed the old engine and the new 347 is in. Since the engine was out, I cleaned and painted the crossmember, engine cradle, and firewall with POR15. Next, I will install the new heat shield material. The next upgrade to the Van will be a 5.0L Fuel Injection System. I have a GT40 Lower intake manifold. But I will have make a custom upper intake, because the factory GT40 Upper Intake manifold will not fit under the Van Dog House Cover. |
