Making good progress - considering all is custom (fuel system & fuel tank).
Fuel system complete up to front foot box. All lines run, inertia safety
switch installed, AN hoses, etc. Includes use of charcoal vapor recovery
cannister. (Located a solenoid valve (Mustang GT ~ '95) to connect manifold
vacuum via with switch to purge tank. Will keep gas odor out of garage)
Brake: rear disc brakes complete (will finish emergency brake tomorrow -
custom w/ LOKAR handle instead of mustang donor parts.
All rear brake hard lines have been formed/bent and run up to midway on
frame and attached with ss clamps and screws. Looks good & took alot of
time to do right. Book says use rivits - Instead, I drilled and tapped
screw holes in frame and used ss #8 screws. Same for fuel line clamps.
Brake callipers installed & brake hose clearance checked at full upper
travel of differential.
Rear trunk floor panels modified for fill pipe to new tank & storeage bins.
(Need to assemble floor before I can take pic - and note - this had to
wait until brake lined and e-brack mods were complete. Also had to weld
1.25" x 8" angle iron bracket for relocated emergency brake cables.)
E-brake will be done tomorrow; had to order 2 clevis yolks. This is
probably the most complicated assembly phase of this kit because of custom
work. Will be much clearer with pics. In any case, work is done and I am
satisfied with the result. ~George
