Another month has come and gone, but we are making good progress now. I am very encouraged as the car is coming out much better than I thought it would. I guess when you buy everything new you should get a new car. I asked the UPS man how it felt to carry a '65 Mustang up my drive way one piece at a time and he smiled. I think I'll buy him a Christmas present! |

Took half of the spacers out of the top A-arms to compensate for the 1" Shelby drop. The alignment looks much better. Bumper guards were a pain, but look good. Hood is off waiting for the Cobra motor. Scored the vintage Shelby license plate on EBay. |

Having a hard time matching the '65 GT350 decals with the Wimbledon White stripes so I am going to find a sign painter that can paint them on. Hard to tell in this picture but I lowered the car 1" in the rear. Should be perfect with the motor in it's place and the car settles some. |

Here's the 1969 dual master cylinder and the SSB combo distribution block and proportioning valve setup. Lines were a big problem but I got through it somehow. I decided to use stainless front brakes lines and pedal feel is very good. |

Battery relocation came out real nice. Used a modified '67 Mustang battery tray and hold-down. Ran the cable through the car encapsulated in rubber hose. |
