Finally got the html thing figured out

Reminds me of my car...and all the things I had to work on.

I've had mine for 20+years now. Totally resto-modded it myself (all paint/bodywork, interior, brakes, engine, etc - light on the mods) .

I trust you'll enjoy the restoration journey (if thats where you're going) as much as I did.

Here's a link to mine if anyone's interested.

it rather shocked me a bit to think how complicated our engine compartments have become. My '68 XR-7 was a little more complicated but not much. Here's my current toy:

Damn. To think I regarded this as a fairly simply engine compartment. Thanks for the wake-up call!

All I can say is...

ACK!

Well, I've done it both ways... and I love the sentimental rush I get looking at the old steeds, but I prefer driving the vastly more refined machines we have today.

I guess I'm just shallow.

Wow, that chrome thermostat neck REALLY dresses the engine up a lot!! :oP

I had *exactly* the same reaction. Then I remembered the chrome thermostat neck on my '68.

I got it for free and I had to change the thermostat, figured I'd put it in while I had things apart.

I think its a ford

*That* you can say with authority! LOL! :)

Funny stuff, man.

You gotta start someplace. The important thing is that you don't give up. Here's a few of my 66... I don't know if I have the html thing figured out or not.

Shazam! Nice car Pat. I'm totally envious of the engine compartment. I didn't have time or inclination to remove my engine so the hood stays shut. Course, I'm sure I'll want to fix that before long and now it will be twice as much work... oh well.

Looks like all you need is some time and a wad of money, and she will be a pretty nice little Stang! Great start !

One littel thought though, you might consider a little dog with the head that goes up and down, rather than trying to cram a blonde (is that you?) in the rear window, granted the blonde is much better ... the other might fit a bit easier J/K :)

You're going to have a lot of fun with this little red beastie!
