![]() Here goes my try at sharing the trials and tribulation of working and modifying my mustang. First off, I will say that the car is a basket case to begin with, but got it for the right price. Secondly, I am now also undertaking alot more than I had envisioned. Thinking to myself, while I have time I should do this and this and that..... sometimes better is the enemy of good enough. I am converting the car to 351W. While fixing all the problems and making things better. First off, I had to fix up the interior. Not show quality, but had to finish reinstalling and finding a driver front seat, steering column and carpet as well as the center console and shifter boot. Well, I didnt like the radio where is was. Hey who does in the older mustang, damn shifter is in the way. So I decided to move my radio. That is pic number 1. Yes, the radio is now in the rear view mirror. As well as install speakers in the door and tweeters in the pillar. Replace the rear speakers with quality 6x9's and 2 10" subs with the 10 disc cd changer and hid the most everything pretty well and the amps under the passenger seat(small amps).
