Update & Pictures of my project

I have had my Mustang for just over 2 years now. Had some issues with the carb and gearbox that seemed to take forever to solve but they are solved at last. The car runs like a dream now.

I was intending on a concourse restoration but with a lot of thought i will go for the majority being finished off concourse. The one thing i have changed is the exhaust system. Originally there was a single exhaust. I did not like the sound a single exhaust give off so i have opted for a stainless twin exhaust. I bought a original carb from a fellow member of this site. When i tried to fit it it turned out to be a 2150 and not a 2100. Had a few issues and couldnt work out why till i discovered it was a 2150. After all the issues i don't intend changing it again. So another piece not entirely concourse.

100% concourse or not, I bet there are very few in the UK with this level of detail.

Nice work Steve!

Looking great and excellent attention to detail

Always admire those who strive for concourse levels, something I don't have the patience for

Very well done!

Oh ya very nice!

Originally was a 2100. Last owner put a aftermarket on. Purchased a original carb from a fellow site member assuming it was a 2100. When it arrived i sent it off for glass bead blasting which made it look brand new. Then sent it off to be professionally rebuilt. When i tried to put it on the car it had differant channels and differant height. It was only then did i read the tag on it and discovered it was a 2150. Took me a while to figure out i need a universal spacer. Fitted the carb and the nightmare continued. Had it looked at by a specialist and he told me the floats had not been set up correctly and it was sucking air in through the leaky gasket. 2 months of ripping me hair out at a non running car. After all that hassle i think i will retain the carb i have for now. Will look for a original 2100 when the car is finished in around 2 years. Thats when i will go over the whole car and look for work that is not concourse
