Starting off as a running roller. Not ready for the street.
Plan is this will be my daily driver and parts runner for the shop.

Has a custom Frame
2021 BluePrint Crate Motor/TH400
Mustang II front end
Airbags without shocks
unidentified rear end with a triangulated 4 link
No side windows. regulators gone so need to fab something up. maybe the belt method?
Lights not working, manual fan switch, needs horn,
Trans leak at output, output bushing worn..looks like due to driveshaft length too short at ride height wobbling and hogged out output bushing and consequently the seal.
Seats not mounted and only 1 has mounting brackets

Plus side it runs fantastic after a choke adjustment. pulls hard and is super fun to drive.

So far all I've done is remove the wood floor and patchwork firewall, remove the broken shifter, installed new shifter, created a cardboard template for new firewall.
Ordered ton of bits to get rolling

Would love ideas on seatbelt location aside from doing a roll cage and 5 point.
