Re: 8.50 index build
Todd I love following this build. Your craftsman ship is awesome!
I had a roadster and three dragsters. There primitive compared to what your doing to that chassis. I never knew there was that much involved with a fast door car chassis. Keep up the great work and best of luck. Jimmy |

Re: 8.50 index build
I wish I had been following this thread long ago. What an outstanding job on a huge project. The Malibu was really nice but the Mustang is beautiful.
Having just completed refurbishing an old Pro Stock car I have a new perspective on how much work goes into a complete build like yours, especially when you do it solo. See you at the races, Wayne Kerr |

Re: 8.50 index build
Gonna do some photo dumps of some of the recent work.
brake light pressure switch setup. New tail light housings and lenses assembled. Had a terrible time with getting the tail lights to fit without hitting the bumper, but that's a whole story in itself. Couple small pieces back from powder coating and the replacement delay box came in. New shift solenoid & mount. |

Re: 8.50 index build
Wiring underway, starting in the back working my way forward.
Took a short break to mockup the transmission to measure for the new driveshaft. So this Saturday I wanted to start on the battery cables and quickly found the rear housing was blocking access, so... |
