'67 Mustang Renovation Project: The Front End

http://projectelchato.blogspot.com/2013/09/the-front-end.html

67 Mustang Renovation Project. A DIY project to renovate El Chato, my 1967 Mustang Hardtop. Friday, September 27, 2013. Front-End Assembly of a 1967 Ford Mustang). First I reviewed the steps one by one and made sure I knew where everything was attached to, and that I had all hardware needed. All original parts to be reused, I thoroughly cleaned, stripped (where necessary) and repainted. All screws and bolts were new. There was to be no grimy rusty hardware in my new front end. Then I installed the wide g...

1967 Mustang Restoration: August 2013

http://67txstang.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html

Sunday, August 4, 2013. Little Progress Aside From New Shifter. I called CJ Pony Parts this past Wednesday morning as they had not sent me an email indicating my parts were shipped. The person I spoke with stated the parts were arriving to them that day and would be shipped out to me the next day. Several days have past since then and I have no email stating they have shipped and they have not billed me for the parts. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Performing the Shelby/Arning Drop.

1967 Mustang Restoration: November 2014

http://67txstang.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html

Monday, November 24, 2014. I'm still slowly collecting the items needed to install my five speed transmission. I've watched the Modern Driveline crossmember (Part# MD-6773M-CMT5). On the CJ Pony Parts website periodically hoping to find it on sale. Despite 20% and 30% off sales, this particular part never seems to go on sale. I decided to stop waiting an just buy it a few weeks back. Unfortunately, I received a call a day later stating it was on backorder. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Restoration and Modi...

1967 Mustang Restoration: March 2014

http://67txstang.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html

Monday, March 31, 2014. Transmission Parts and Needing New Wheels. I've not vanished. just been busy. I've wanted to get new wheels for the Mustang for a while now so I can run a wider rear tire and tires with a lower aspect ratio for better cornering. I decided two weeks ago I would list my current GT wheels I've had for five years on Craigslist. I expected it would take a while for them to sell since I did not want to compromise on the price. I was wrong. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

SusieQ's 68 Mustang Convertible: February 2014

http://68ragtop.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html

SusieQ's 68 Mustang Convertible. Saturday, February 15, 2014. Yeahthose things no one likes. Before I got too carried away, I decided to buff/polish the areas where they installed so that I didn't have to work around them when buffing the entire car. Which obviously should be done before any hardware is attached but due to some upcoming events, I'm in accelerated-mode to get as much of the car reassembled before the end of March. There's a quarter window track hiding inside that quarter panel! But as all...

SusieQ's 68 Mustang Convertible: February 2012

http://68ragtop.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html

SusieQ's 68 Mustang Convertible. Thursday, February 9, 2012. Found a good resource for steering wheels tonight. Here's the link:. Http:/ www.streetrodderweb.com/tech/0710sr steering wheel guide/index.html. I found 2 wheels from Billet Specialties that really caught my eye. Obviously the LeCarra / Moto Lita's come immediately to mind but the wood-look just doesn't fit our car. I changed the woodgrain dash to the black camera finish so there's really nothing that would tie a wood steering wheel to the ...

Light Above My Path - LAMP: June 2015

http://lightabovemypath.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html

Light Above My Path - LAMP. Wednesday, June 10, 2015. The Journey Begins…Literally! Loaded and ready to head north. May 31, 2015. So it was off to northern Illinois. On the drive just west of Rochelle to the road my friend’s house is on, I could see damaged buildings and homes from the tornado a few weeks before that when through the area. It was quite devastating. The farm that used to be his dad's a quarter mile up the road was wiped clean. This is me in front of "Mary Jo's" tractor! After packing, we ...

Mustang68.com: sounds great!

http://68redmustang.blogspot.com/2015/01/sounds-great.html

Friday, January 9, 2015. New year, new plan: I just know 2015 will be the year the '68 runs again! I've got mixed feelings about the decline in the number of posts I've been writing about this project in the latter three years: of course it's mainly due to "other things" taking priority, but I also think that my posting style has evolved such that I can cover more progress in each installment. There, that sounds much better! The trend is down. Even though I spent most of the Summer working on the shed.
