Post by: 86Tbuzzard on February 07, 2006, 07:20:00 PM
been promising these for a awhile and finally they are here...actually...as of yesterday they are old because I got more done to the car.
1.The Explorer 302 is now a bare block
2.The T-bird has both doors on
3.I got a lead on a supposed 5.0 stang with a 8.8 rear end.
TIME FOR PICS!

Whoa, that is some rusty stuff you got in there.  Good thing it's getting overhauled.  Is the oil filter supposed to be that black?  Lol.  Looks like you are making a ton of progress though.
