I finally did it, got my own Mustang
Well, I finally found what I hope is the Mustang I want. Bought it on E-bay. No motor, no tranny, just a 1986 notchback that's in decent shape, for the Cleveland. I'm headed to Missouri in the morning to pick it up. I'll post some pictures as soon as I get back.
Correct me if I'm wrong but an original 6 cylinder needs a different K-member to install a V8 right? I'm ordering a D&D tubular crossmember this week. The new K-member is going to get done regardless, but I was hoping I were correct.
My Cleveland block is back in the machine shop for it's final prep work, line bore, cam bearings and pistons pressed on new rods. Things are coming together. I'm going to try to attach a picture of the block as it sits now.
