Title: New steering wheel
Post by: Marshall on June 21, 2017, 07:38:25 pm
After a couple of years indecision I finally picked a new s'wheel.

Flaming River, Waterfall.

If you need a small detailed horse emblem this is from a late Mustang hubcap. No I didn't pinch it.

Nice. Is that a 65/66? Looks like an AU interior, any more pics of the car? I'm confused ha ha

Yeah, my retirement project.  Bought a damaged AU XR* and took lots out and into the Stang.

Your build pics show you have done a great job on yours.  Brought memories back for me of when I was doing mine 12 years ago.

Mate that looks awesome! I remember seeing a photo of your engine on an engine stand a while ago before my build while I was researching things, and thought it looked awesome with the custom intake. Who would have thought it was put in a mustang!

Here is my album if it is of interest.  It is about time I updated it with bits and pieces I have done in recent times.

Currently I am assembling everything needed to swop the T5 for an AOD.  My days of changing gears are nearing an end but I want to keep driving my baby forever.

Amazing car, loved looking through all the build pics.

Didn't you also build a very nice hot rod?  I recall you having one way back when I was living in the NT too.

Hi Dwayne

I had a couple over the years, you are probably referring to the 46 Ford Tudor.  My daily driver for 15 years was the 56 F100.  Loved them both but as happens they found their way to new owners.   I doubt that will happen to my Stang.

Yes, the 46 was the one I remembered.

a very nice addition Marshall, I have the same wheel and I think I'll have to do the same mod.
