[FIVE-OH]

Fill in hood washer nozzle hole/repaint

Am I having a brain fart? Or is this a pre-'10 thing I've never noticed?

 

[one eyed willy]

pre 10 thing, you wouldnt understand!

 

[GallopingFord]

Cam are you flying me out to do some video stuff of this car for you?! Lol!!! I would drive but it's so damn far away!

Duh! Going to fly you out here VIP style and shower you with champagne and caviar.

Make the drive to Mustang Week!

Yep, one of the ugly additions on the 05-09

It's not that them sitting there bother me that much it's the fact when you use them it dribbles on the hood

They bother me sitting there, and it's one more obstacle I snag a microfiber cloth on

The holes in the hood would be hard to fill in I think. The aluminum is super thin right there, and it flexes easily when you wash/dry it. I think the best way would be to have them carefully welded up. Any bondo on that part of the hood would likely just crack.

 

[GallopingFord]

Sorry, when I said fill, I was implying welded. All 3 of those things are going to be welded.

Making big progress today; Put the rear seats in.

pace yourself there Cam. LOL.

Seriously though, it's looking killer!

Man I love that look. Sometimes I wish I would have pulled the trigger and just went for the GT500 nose conversion.... but the wallet got the best of me. I swore I wouldn't do that anymore. LOL

Sorry for the side bar.

Thanks Jeffy! It's getting pretty damn close. Tomorrow I have the following left before it's "road-ready."

-Bleed Brakes
-Connect the Boost Sensor/Wideband Sensor to a 12V source
-Refill Rear End Grease
-Repair an Manifold Stud - Today we were trying to put the midpipe back on and the exhaust stud snapped off, so I had to order a new one that should get there tomorrow.

Hoping to get the car touching the ground tomorrow afternoon, and shredding up the pavement on Saturday.

OTA pipes are in route, but I haven't found any mufflers - soooo I'll just enjoy driving around with a open mid pipe lol

No apology needed. The 07-09 front looks fantastic and I really wanted to put that front on my Bullitt since it looks so good, but I've finally beat myself to keeping the stock-look to really benefit from this project.

I agree wholeheartedly. The more I do to cars, the more I want to keep it all stock/OEM.

Who's ready for a test drive?
