What he said.

My truck is getting the majority of the vehicle money lately. Kinda sucks having no working instruments other than speedometer and fuel and a couple idiot lights. Got a mini tach for it.. got new wiring to put the stereo and 6x9 boxes in.. got a 180 degree thermostat for it.. painted the valve covers and air cleaner, and put new valve cover gaskets in.. painted the dash.. changed the oil and filter.. put the driving lights I won from here on it. Getting four more gauges for it as soon as I can.

The next thing my LSC gets is brakes. The next thing my T-bird gets is likely a different engine. (ok, it might also get another exhaust hanger for the time being.. but that's a minor purchase) Picked up an engine stand awhile back for when I can bring the 351 over here to clean it up.

Nothing.
But the tempo may get a turbo through on it. Found a old terbo laying around the garage and some bigger injectors and the gears started rolling.

Hmm, a new o ring for the sending unit and a new plug.  Other than that the piece of shiznit is sitting in the garage on jackstands.

Cause To "treat her well", would negate my original plans for her.:flame: :D ;)

That was the plan.  Took some pics of the '84 with my 3 1/2" cowl hood on it.  Looks pretty cool, even though I am not done the hood yet.  Got the hood totally welded, and the welds ground down.  Now I just need a light skim coat of bondo, and paint it.  Will post some pics of it on Saturday for yas.
