Hi Guys. It's been a while, after having another little girl, getting a new job, and moving, I'm finally going to try to start working on the stang.
After about 2 years off from working on it. I'm kinda' at a loss of where to continue.
Brief Recap:
I got a '69 Mach 1. No engine and no tranny. I gutted the mustang and welded new fender aprons onto it, installed a new floor pan, cleaned up the interior, installed new 9" rear end, 4-wheel disc brakes, front coil over, new rear springs, and a fuel cell. Oh yeah. I was forced to get new wheels because the rims that were on it wouldn't fit over my new rotors.
I would like to start getting some of the large purchases out of the way like the engine, tranny, and steering, but I'm not so sure that's the best course of action. Here's a list of things I know needs to be done or things I want to do.
1. Engine (Some 351W-based crate engine, haven't decided yet)
2. Tranny (AOD)
3. Interior (refurbish the existing dash and associated electronics)
4. Exterior (buy a hood, fit all the panels, lay down a coat of primer)
5. Chassis wiring (painless kit or similar)
6. Steering (R&P. old steering is dead)
7. run brake lines
8. probably some other things I'll remember I have to do as soon as I submit this post.
Does anyone have a good path forward for me? I would appreciate any help.
