Body and aluminum tear down

Spent today getting ready to build up. Took the body off, and stored it in the back yard, and marked the aluminum, and took it off of the chasis.

A couple of hours work. Now I need to drill the aluminum for rivets, and store it (probably over with the body). Then I must complete the inventory and cleaning up all the boxes.

The garage is full!!

Stewart Transport drove up at 4:30 yesterday afternoon, and dropped everything off.

It's now a little daunting to look at all the work infront of me. I first need to go through all the boxes, and get them and the body stored adequately before I start actual work.

Also I called AMP Performance in Pheonix to have them start working on my donor palet. It'll take them a couple of weeks and it's a '92 5.0 mustang. I'm having them put a new T5Z transmission on with it, and a new clutch.

Total cost is $3735.

Kit Ordered

I ordered the Kit today. My complete date is August 16th. Stewart shipping will pick it up and bring it to me, I will likely get it a week later.

Ordered a base kit with the following extras:

Powdercoating
CNC cutouts
3 link suspension (free upgrade)
Koni front and back shocks (free upgrade)
Tubular front lower control arms (free upgrade)
EFI harness
Air Conditioning

I now will work on preparing the garage.

I've talked to AMP Performance in Phoenix as well as Mustang Village in Fontana about purchasing a donor palet. Both are viable options, but AMP seems cheaper for the same value of parts. They will also bring the palet to me (negating the fact that Fontana is so much closer).
