Re: 1967 Mustang Coupe Build (Electra)

Careful, you'll piss off the "Ford people"... it's a Trac-Loc!

The rear on my car leaks pretty bad. There's a guy on ebay that had great reviews on VMF that sells them for $850. I've been thinking about getting one, but I guess they didn't make a trac-loc in a 2.8 rear, so I'd have to bump up to a 3.00 rear.

I imagine that's about the same cost if I brought my car into a shop to have mine cleaned up and redone, so I might as well get a trac-loc right? If anything ever happens to my 289 I'm putting a roller 302 in it, but hopefully it will last me a loooooong time!

Congrats on getting the headliner done, they're a PIA.

Well its a one piece unisuede TMI headliner so it wasnt too bad. I got the double backed carpet in, painted the old vinyl seats i got black, installed them, put the scratched up side panels in, both seat belts are bolted in, and installed the 09 Mustang seats. I need to trim the carpet some more for the door sills but the interior is looking good
