I've just spent all weekend looking and buying parts for my mustang. I must of been to about six parts places to find the parts i needed, but in the end, i have enough parts to get it to a rolling chassis.


BTW, thank you BLKPNY for opening on sunday and selling me the final parts i needed.

I've booked the mustang for it to be changed to RHD. Its going to be done at Mustbstangs, Dandenong. It's going in at the end of the month.

I've also started to get the car to a rolling shell.

diff's in with RRS Rear brakes which will allow me to fit 14" wheels.

I supposed it was bound to happen that i would find rust in the car.


it's only surface rust at least. i'll need to clean it up


the other side isn't that bad at least

on the plus side the car is now a rolling shell for when mustbstangs ring to let me know thst they can take it to be changed to RHD

Not much done due to work, but i've changed the dash a bit.



I've put in a mini tach from Retrogauge.

No poit changing the dash yet cause you have to cut up the plastics for the RHD swap.
