Early July

I did finish polishing the rest of the wheels and they looked very good. One of my fellow motorheads says that wheels can make a POS into something worth looking at.

Now that the wheels were all taken care of, it was time to make the car safe to drive. After I had accumulated enough funds it was time to rebuild the front end. My dad and I took the mustang to Fords Only. The owner has always treated us well and does exceptional quality on all his work. We dropped the car off and let him do his thing. One of the most important things I've learned: never call to ask if it's done, he'll call me. Below is all the old equipment that was on the car, most of that is original to the car.


I got the call, all done. When my dad and I arrived the car was still on the lift, he wanted to show us all the improvements that were done. Replacement of springs, shocks, control arms, motor mount, and too many things for me to remember off the top of my head. While the car was having the front end, he put new brake pads on the front discs. He told me that when I need to service my brakes, I'll need to replace the rotors as well.
Look at those new parts! He even painted some of the parts to make it go with the car.
