spent the day trying to fit a 26 x 26 storage unit full of stuff into my racking storage at home. over a number of weeks I have just piled it up at home just to empty the unit. Scrapped a lot and still have too much
Not to pull a JD here , but, I want to see daylight through that hole not plugged with shifter and boot sitting on the floor........
You mean to prove it's not fake, that there's actually a Muncie under there?
Well I will settle for seeing you finally cut the hole, if you actually swapped tranny as well double bonus.
Spring is coming, I want a ride in a 4sp car.
The hole is cut. I just need to detail the cut a little bit, there's 2 little jagged edges.
And the Muncie is under there, rest assured.
Hopefully an updated shot one evening soon for you, showing the big hole and a Muncie tailhousing. I still have to drop the shifter back down to retrieve the shifter mounting bracket that Andrew loaned me but my replacement won't likely be here for at least 10 days.
Would you like a picture of the 3 speed on the floor???

That would be nice Just figured if you had cut the hole there would at least be a picture of the hole and a torch in your hand for the shock value
i was only talking about the boot, if I had a spare hump it would be yours, ill check the 409 custom sport this summer , don't know how good it is her vinyl roof rotted the steel roof rite out surprising the frame is still good.
went to clean up the driveshaft .. thought Id check it for straight ness .. I had been chasing a slight highway vibration before I started the resto .. anyways .. noticed where it had some grind marks .. seems it was cut at one point.. and its not properly phased ..
well .. there you go ! Pulled a good one out of my stock .. lol .. should take care of that !
Did a little more work on my brother in laws 47 Chev ex Saskatchewan farm truck this morning.
He bought my old Grande HO350 and TH400, we installed it all last fall, and I built him an entirely new wiring harness front to back. Relayed the headlights, did a central powerpoint. The truck has a 72 mustang front end and a 9".
Got it to the point of cranking over today, and when the weather warms up we'll push it outside, add gas and fire it up. Can't play with gas inside as it's heated with a woodstove.
It turned out to be a super fun old truck project, and as rough as it looks there is almost zero rust...
