Cheers you guys , glad you like what i am doing, To answer a few questions , The seat pan brace is the one thing that need modifying , I will fab a new one with extra bends to clear the exhaust x pipe . I did try it through the seat pan brace hole , but was hard up on the e-brake cable and hard up on the floor pan just before the rear boxes .Going under the brace was to low , So with the brace out, the system run where the brace was . Yes 2.5 " system The time these jobs take is a labour of love , The magnaflow system has been on & off 4 times to get it right , But i am there now , all fitted & welded . Even though its a bought system you have to fab headers to system joints, drill new s/s hangers for rear boxes , weld rear hangers to system , Then i have welded 3" slash cut s/s tips on , Did not like the turn down magnaflow ones . First start up this weekend !!!! -

Spot on SWPruett , Great stuff to use , Bends easy , Flares easy , Never rusts. Mike , I think the company back in the sixtys only converted 50 mustangs to RHD , This was done when the cars were new . My car was built for export DSO 90 on the 18th april 1969 ,shipped over to the uk , arrived August 69 ,spent a few months in a work shop being converted to RHD , Sold new in 1970 to a company in north England (COMPANY CAR )I think, Then i bought it in 1995 , The 14th owner and have been working on & off it ever since , It was very rough & had all the usual mustang rot & bad repairs , I have had highs & lows with the car but thats half the fun when you drive your hard work down the road ! -
