I went to pull my 67 coupe out of the garage to day and it started spewing coolant out of the front timing cover! So my day turned into a shoping trip I was planning on changing the cover this winter but I have been having so much fun driving it to notice the small crosion in cover. I am so spoiled having mustangs unlimited 5 mins away from the house! so I go to get a timing cover and the gaskets and then I start thinking about the work I got to do to fix it so I was like I might as well do the timing chain while Im in there then well if I am going to do that i might as well pick up a cam while I am there! and since I got to take the valve covers off I might as well get my ford racing valve covers while I am at it! so today I ended up buying a b-303 cam since I got a roller motor! timing cover,chrome dipstic,timing chain, gasket set,waterpump,chrome alterornator brackets,and the tall ford racing polished aluminum valve covers! DOES ANYONE GO ON MUSTANG PARTS BENGIES OR IS IT JUST ME!!!!!!

It was down when you were up here the first time even. The ECU has been dead for a while. Got the car to r71's shop today. He is going to put a new hood and front bumper cover on the car. After that's done, it wil be headed to the tuner.

The 7 is getting a little work done over the next month. I need to get some music in it, the interior back in, touch up the paint, and finish the brakes. Shouldn't be a problem though.

BTW - The Impala is really starting to get back in shape. Should have the hydros back to 100% before NOPI.
