Hey guys,

Long time reader, i finally bought my dream car just a year ago, but due to work and family issues have just got around to sharing her around.

She's a June built 67 original 4speed joined to a grunty 390 running duel edlebrocks. She's in decent condition but that doesn't mean there isn't things to do right?

I've done a bit of panel work and removed some rust from the lower rear quarters. It was restored in the mid 80's and they didn't leave drainage holes at the bottom of the panel so more rust built up! But she's good now.

I've upgraded the head/tail lights to LED's and am going to do the exhaust next, so any recomendations from the inner west or south would be helpful.

Would love to get her around to a couple meets and pick your brains sometime soon!

Nick

P.S more photos to come soon!

Try Chris Myles @ Best Mufflers, 69 Planthurst Rd Carlton 95473511, 10 doors up the hill from Sydney Mustang Parts.
There, you can go toy shopping while Chris performs some magic. Chris did my 66 GT exhaust from heads to atmosphere a few years ago, very happy.

If you want stainless ones made up, you could give Greg at Sureflo a call.

He made my exhausts:

Ditto for this recommendation, just had mine done and he was more fanatical about looking after the car and doing a good job that I was I think


oh and beautiful car by the way!

Cheers guys,

I'll give them both a call and go by see what can be organised. Definitely put some photos up once the exhaust is done. She's very quiet at the moment!
