MAC390 327 Report post Posted September 24, 2017 These were done when we got the car to our house in Australia after unloading off the ship. Car looks a lot different now, the FE is very healthy. Busting to get it on the road. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stangnet33 88 Report post Posted September 29, 2017 Nice looking list of goodies, the louver looks great ! Who's rear spoiler did you get and how does it look. Some of the repops I've seen lately look pretty cheap. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MAC390 327 Report post Posted September 29, 2017 Rear spoiler is from NPD and it looks good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MAC390 327 Report post Posted September 30, 2017 Well it's Sat night down here so my middle daughter helps fit the new dyna corn rear bumper. Take off the protective wrapping and it has small fine scratches in the chrome. Also the fit is not flash but i can adjust that, only reason i got this bar was the $700 aud to triple plate my bar, i will do that later. Then we fitted the NPD rear spoiler , nice bit of gear, easy to fit and looks great. and my main box of goodies was not delivered on Friday with the other 2 boxes. Shipping companies are slack , they just don't care.Now we are going to mount the rear window louvers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MAC390 327 Report post Posted October 2, 2017 Monday down here and it's been a holiday 3 days. Starting to make the fuel pump mounting bracket , clean the undersides a bit. Fitted the headlight extn housing rubbers and fitted the thin grille surrounds , one side is good and the other i had to work a lot to make it fit better and it's a Corvex brand. Fitted the stone tray and then the molding on the front, another corvex part and it' not good , wonder if i got a bad one. Sat the grille and it all fits , the i put on the front bar to see what issues i would have, Dynacorn brand and it fitted up pretty good, must have got something right when doing the bodywork. Also put on the rocker panel moldings , rhs went on great but the lhs molding was bent out of the plastic wrapper and the rear screw hole was about double the size it should be. Sending that molding back for a new one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigmal 225 Report post Posted October 2, 2017 Coming along great. I have next week off to get mine back on the road. The replacement instrument circuit wiring from Midlife has gone missing in the mail. Got to Sydney and disappeared. Bloody Australia Post. I'll give it another week and order another. The joys of living so far from all the good parts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Go figure, it's sold everywhere else in the world as the beer Aussies drink but we don't. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I bought Fosters in Darwin in 1976, along with several other beers that I can't remember their names (I was drunk at the time...). 1 bigmal reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
