Whilst wiring the new alternator; I was going to permanently disconnect the stock regulator plug (the new alternator came with its own plug and wire routing) when I came across a lone wire that comes...

Box Panther back to terrorizing the neighborhood :D

Sinuses were killing me today and they didn't get any better laying around; so I figured I would get some work done on the CV. Started by installing the starter wiring. Then I moved over to the ACT...

Will that wood block stay in place? Other than that; awesome work! What did you use for the undercoating?

It worked; 3/8"-18 tap. It had just stopped raining when I got home; so I popped the pvc portion off; drilled and tapped it; then reinstalled it. Done deal.

Tomorrow I will install the starter...

Assembled the starter power cable and the signal wire last night. Supposed to rain later today; hope to get home before that happens to install them. My Dad went to his friend's place in the next...

Nice!!!

Wired up the Flex-a-Lite temp sender/switch and ran the signal wire to the auxiliary fuse box. Then I got to making the CAI up. I thought I'd have more of the pvc run than I ended up with; but it...

So I got 1.5" radiator hose with a 90* bend and 6" legs. Cut 1.25" off of one hose and it all fit like a glove. Since the recently bought water pump put the coolant hoses closer to the fuel lines;...

Installed one of the catch cans between the valve cover and air intake tube. This is a temporary set up as all was had at the local auto parts store was 5/8" heater hose. I will see if I can get...

Mine is fairly large; it was the only one with -AN fittings welded onto it.

I did a temporary rerouting of the hoses whilst waiting for a meeting to begin; then it was postponed for an hour; so I started messing with the upper radiator hose. Discovered that the Mr Gasket...

My armrest has been slowly unraveling; and this afternoon it just kinda popped out. I tried to pry it back into place; but I made it far worse than it was. How do I reattach the armrest? Can it...

Went out an hour ago to install the Amazon catch I got over the winter. This one is the same design as the one I took off; but it has a thumb-bolt on the bottom that I can easily unscrew and drain. ...

I got a couple hours in yesterday with the CV. I mounted the trans cooler semi-permanently. I discovered that the bottom mount (bottom tube) lined up with the lower brace stud that I used for the...

Nice!!! :drool:

I discovered shortly after getting this car; that the alarm would go off by itself on rainy humid days. I saw that the keypad is dry-rotted and letting water in and onto the alarm sensor; thus...

Changed things up a bit with this car. I procrastinated with the winter wheel setup until 2 weeks ago; and pulled the trigger on the Saleen wheels. Since they sit wide; I have to be careful about...

Nice!

I'm gonna go with the US Mags Rambler U110 wheels when I do the bigger Big Brake swap. I wish American Racing made the Ansen Sprint wheels in 18"; but they don't :(

I worked on the trans cooler a little today. I took the grille off for better access. Not sure why I didn't do that 12 years ago when I painted it. The only thing I can think of is the stripped...

^^^^^^^This!^^^^^^^^

I would start with the suspension and brake mods/upgrades first. Then start making power. That way you start with a little bit of control over the newfound power. Then...

Hat's off to you for doing that in this weather. I complained about the 85*F temps when I pulled the lopo; but I definitely couldn't do that during the early spring.

Wow! Your engine bay is clean.

As long as it still passes inspection; I would consider the windshield repair a win.

It will be 5 years this July. The car is sitting in the spot where it died. Had I followed my Dad's advice 13 years ago and rebuilt the lopo (or stuck an Explorer engine in there); the car would...
