What did you get done on your Stang today????

Nothing - sleeped in due to a long night of support (work). I did get a call from Classic Auto Air saying that my AC is ready to be picked up from the dock.
 
Knocking out my punch list the last two weeks.

Upgraded headlight with relays and 12 gauge wiring throughout.
Deleted starter solenoid in favor of relay.
3G alternator wiring mostly complete. Waiting for alternator. UPS dicked me for this weekend. Was supposed to be here today. Monday is revised date.
Mounted A/C compressor. Will need to be adjusted when it's ready for the belt.
Mounted condenser, dryer and binary switch.
Mounted and wired Ford contour fan assembly.
Mounted Borgeson P/S pump (Saginaw)
Put front end back on car.
Carpeted trunk.
New rear spoiler.

I had a friend take care of a little fiberglass work on the evap box. He told me by text earlier today that it was ready so over the weekend I'll go through it and the rest of the inside part cleaning and repairing what needs repaired, replace vacuum motors, evap, heater core, vacuum hoses, seals, etc. Then reinstall it.

I also have a Kenwood KNW1005 front speaker to install, rewire speakers and remove 5 1/2 rounds from quarter trim and install 6x9s.
Then I'll take it to work so I can use the hoist to put the Borgesen box in, Plumb the heater and A/C. Then It will be time to clean it all back up for Beaumont.
 
Looking real good Sluggo. You should pull that thing in the garage and get some light on it, so you can see what you're doing. :roll
 
Drove it for the FIRST time this year, hadn't been out of the garage since last November. Had to wait for the billions of pounds of road salt used this winter to be washed away. Then changed the oil and cleaned it up.
 
Got my blower box back an the car and almost finished rebuilding the plenum. Waiting on a grommet for the evaporator lines coming out of the box. Should have it back in the car tomorrow. Also finished the 3g conversion. As soon as i get the plenum back in and the dash back together I'll hook up the heater core, then test the starter, alternator and cooling fans.
 
Went out into the garage, slid my hand down the dirty, dusty fender and said; soon my little friend...soon.
 
Drove it in the rain to work. My wiper seem to only work on high and do not home when turned off. Something else to fix :bomb
 
I set up my tent for the Pensacola show for the next three days. Dave Trumbull is next door (he's the Mustang Pony Car Drive guy who sold me some harnesses back in 2008 that got me started), and he had a correct bell housing for my Mustang and it even came with the clutch fork pivot.

The weather was very windy (25 knots sustained with up to 30 knot gusts) and is expected to be mostly rainy tomorrow. Very sucky.
 
Alot, Finished my engine, Put the Clutch assembly bellhousing and T5 behind it and slid it in the engine bay Bolted up the Clevorracing T5 crossmember
Installed the Hurst Billet Aluminum pistol grip Shift knob.

Will be finishing up the Modern Driveline T5 clutch cable setup, I need a carb and a driveshaft

i also need to take my lazy butt off the couch and add some pics!
 
I decided I would do some small stuff on the stang even though my knee has been irritated since going back to work but I couldn't stay still. I installed some crappy stock speakers out of my old cobalt in the rear to replace the completely blown out Kenwood speakers. Nothing special but i wired them up correctly unlike the Kenwood speakers in it and even though one is kinda blown i have music! So I decided to take her for a drive. Started to push the clutch down and POP! The clutch goes to the floor and doesn't come back up. ERG WTF! I though i just screwed something up or broke something major. After doing a little goggling and not finding anything I decided to look under the dash. A small coddle pin broke and the pedal was just separated from the push rod. So initially I put it back in and bent it but i was a little worried about it. Luckily SELLERSRODSHOP up the road said he thought he had one and to come grab it. Cool guy!!!

This morning I got back to it! I pull out the dash pad(Which came out in pieces), removed the cluster, and just checked some other stuff out. There are some cut wires and some other wires that just need to be covered. I was happy to see that the dash wasnt rusted out under the dash pad. I was kind of worried since the windshield leaks a bit and the another 67 I checked out in ATL was rusted out like crazy.
 
I hate it when someone paints the dash and doesn't cover things up so that all of the wires and connectors get painted as well.

Your wiper switch connector looks funky to me...doesn't look exactly like it should.
 
Drove back from Connecticut with a load of parts...a fastback roof, a trunk lid, both door glasses, and a fastback rear window glass. Two interior metal trims (ceiling Panels), and the three fiberglass surrounds. All for a whopping 500.00...dont call the cops just yet. The hood has a bunch of rust and was not cut well at all. May need a roof skin? Oh well, my search for a fastback roof is done, let the games begin.
