My first Mustang 73.

I learned some new things about my car from a previous owner. The last time the car ran it began to produce white smoke and the car was looked at and a possible need for new head gaskets was discussed ... this lead the previous owner to sell. I got the car from the guy after..
I am planning on pulling the engine at this point.

I suppose I should continue as I have planned and realize it will take some more time than I thought. I had a good session on the car last night. I also got some new tools enroute (4.5 in die grinder / ceramic grinding discs). I am also going to get a "Finger File" sander. I am very happy with what I have done with the structural strengthening of the floor. Hopefully with two days off this week and a 4 day weekend I can put enough time in to get the bottom of the floorpans taken care of and feel finished with that portion of the bottom.

I am hoping to get 400 hp (completely an arbitrary pick) out of the existing motor, with a rebuild / refresh.....

But.. before that.. the rear end is coming out, and I will learn about Ford 9inch rear ends... and refurbish it first. And... clean up and seal up the rear..
