    Trunk replacement without cutting it in pieces

    You can fit a new trunk pan in through the trunk lid opening. Its tight but can be done. Also if that much stuff is rusted you would probably need the tail light panel anyhow, so then its really easy to access

    What did you do today instead of working on your Mustang?

    Very cool. We have been working on the bikes lately too. Both my sons and I race woods harescrambles. We have Ktm 50 , 105, and a 300. Couple pit bikes. 4 quads. And my old 1998 Rmx250. Here’s a couples pics of our race bikes.

    subframe connectors and speed humps

    Not at all. They are pretty much the same height as the front and back frame heights. Mine go right inside the front box.  now my electric cutouts for my headers is a different story.... I gotta be careful how fast I go over speed bumps or they will scrape.

    General Consensus on Replacement 351C Heads

    I got my heads from a manufacturer in Australia by the name of AFD.  Air Flow Dynamics. I love them. Work really well but as others stated they are not cheap. I believe Roy, Tnfastback, has the same set on his car.
