Thanks for worrying about me , guys, I'm still alive !
Todd sent me a PM on the HAMB (I haven't been visiting there much lately either) and said you guys were asking about me.
Yep, I have been working A LOT on the Mustang project, going to the shop right after work and staying really late. It has turned into more of a project than I thought it would be, new cars have SO MANY systems that older cars don't. For the past month or so I have been doing this every night, and everything else has taken a back seat.
I was able to get the parts 2004 GT stripped down completely and cut the body up so I could put it in our dumpster (bet the garbage men got a surprise when they flipped that dumpster over on top of the truck and heard a very loud bang as the body dropped into the back !)
Then, I completed disassembled the V6 car down to the bare shell so Dan and I can start welding in the subframe connectors and the roll cage. I have been going through all the parts from both cars, keeping the best ones and trashing the ones I don't need. Now I can start painting all the parts and have them ready to reinstall after the car is painted.
I have also been going through the 4.6 V8 motor, replacing every gasket, hose, water pump, pulleys, belts, etc so that it should not need any repairs for a while. Got it all cleaned up and painted too. Looks pretty good.
So, thanks for worrying about me. I should have some more time now to visit here because the hard work is behind me (I think).
