    thanks
    I am wondering if billbords will be sticked on the quarters, I like the car like this but I also like with the billboards ....

    going to work a little on the engine to mate the mustang T5, quicktime bellhousing and going to take measurement where the shifter will be located. the car has the 4spd hump and I can use an offset shifter or as the car was originally an automatic I may take the hump off and make a new side on the transmission tunnel ...

    Hey, is that one of those shaker bubble fiberglass hoods from AAR?  The one where the shaker and the hood are all one piece?

    I do not know which manufacturer made this hood, but it is a 2 piece hood; the shaker bubble is screwed under the hood; there is a small gap between the hood and the bubble to simulate a true shaker. we painted the hood to look like a rubber weatherstrip around the bubble.

     well I do not know as I bought them at least 5 years before I bought the barracuda so something like 9 or 10 years ago and it was in a public auction.

    I will check as I still have the cardboard but I do not recall of something writtten on it.

    as for the brackets, I modifiy stock brackets to accept the new seats. I welded small pieces of metal because of the difference of width. it looked to be really solid and do not flex with me seated in.

    thanks for your feedback.

    Going to work on the front suspension
