When I added the Delta 45’s to #ProjectSportRoof – #SR73, the tailpipes came up short. I’m not sure why that happened and I’m not sure why I didn’t notice it. But hey it gave me a quick project while I’m on our fall break.
I was going to polish up the ends but I’m going to shop for some chrome ends. Drop Me some suggestions.
Here is the video:

I was chatting with someone online about cars and I recalled driving home with my first Mustang project car. It was a 1970 Coupe, not fastback, or Mach I, not even a Grande. You can still find so of the work on that car here on my blog. I purchased the car in Phx, Az. from a lady who got the car from her mom. Her mom was the first owner. It was 6 cylinder (250) with a/c and in pretty good shape. I remember driving it down the freeway not knowing much about it mechanically and I didn’t want to temp fate by turning on the a/c, just needed it to make back to Tucson. I wish I had recorded that drive, but it would not have been comparable to the ride home in #ProjectSportsRoof. Now that one I did record.
So, I thought I’d put together a quick video showing the drive home and toss some before pics and a “now’ video snippet. Here ya go!
I think not.

Temps weren’t in the triple digits this morning so I thought I’d fire up the Stang (#ProjectSportRoof) and runner down the main drag a bit. As I started her up and let her idle a bit and wrapped up the car covers I noticed a dripping underneath.
Details:
I have a few Petrol Box supplied products to test out. Get ready for those videos!!
Lots more coming!!

Too hot to work on the Stang. Here is something I like, car related.

Pandemic starting to fade, school about to end, I think it’s about time to get to the auto parts store, minus the mask and get some work done.
But first let’s start with a drive in 73 Mustang (#ProjectSportsRoof).
Enjoy the drive.

I’ve been driving #ProjectSportRoof a lot but there’s still work to do, but I have a back log of products that I need to review. So the next few post will be dedicated to testing out some of the those items, include other helpful tool organizers and a few products for detailing your car.
Olsa is a Canadian company that has their tools and products made in Taiwan and tested in auto shops in Canada.
I saw the ad for the Magnetic Socket Holders and purchased them, because my case for my socket set, well over 20 years old has final given up (not with out a fight) the ghost.
Here’s the video:

Thanks for following along.
After finishing up what was a 9 hour day of just leaf spring work, I took a couple days off to recover (not as young as I use to be) and now it’s time to see if there’s any improvement in handling and ride with #ProjectSportsRoof. Oh…O.K. and to see if any ‘parts’ fall off. So I took the 73 Stang out for a walk.
Check it out:

Welcome back.
Install of the new leaf springs on #ProjectSportsRoof was pretty straight forward.
Check it out:
The left side went a bit smoother (lessons learned).
Now a test drive in order!!! That’s coming up.
Thanks for stopping by!!!
