Engine Hoist & Rear End
So I've been trying to get these pics up for over a week now, but blogger wasn't having it. Anyway, they are up now. I got an engine hoist finally from Harbor Freight for $150. I can't believe it was that cheap. There is no chance in hell that I could build it for that price. Gotta love China for that. Anyway, I also bought a 96 Mustang Cobra rear axle assembly off of ebay. I will be picking that up tomorrow. Next thing is to lay out the parts in the car and start designing a chassis. I'm looking for front spindles at the moment. I'm considering Mustang II 2" drop spindles, but I have to check on the bolt pattern of the rotors. If they are the same as the '96 Cobra's, then I'll get them. I figure I should try to stick with as little different donor car parts as possible. It will become a nightmare trying to sort it all out, when I need replacement parts. "What car did that part come from!?" Anyway, I hope to make some time to do some serious chassis planning and work soon.
