Why don't you make a list of what you need. I have a lot of stuff I don't need, including large sums of cash :lol Rich

Guess you skipped a couple posts. There is a huge list about 20 posts back.  :craz

Check the sharing properties, when I got the email from you the link wouldn't let me in, I had to request access which I assume you then granted.  Might be a permissions issue.

I found  It on page 2, that helps. I have a nice used windshield and several of the things you need. Maybe I could do you a charity paint job and write it off my taxes. Rich.

If you still need a recipient for that large sum of cash, I'll take it.

You guys are too much! Where in Indiana are you. I'm gonna be up by Lafayette in a week or two.
I have now had 3 offers to paint it! Sluggo, Jason and Rich. This thing has taken on a life of it's own!

Sluggo, I have no idea where this google list is, do I need to send an email to you?

Married to Tara, that makes me the TARA-fied one!

The updated list is on Page 4.  I see a lot of mentioning of hood hinges, but not resolved yet.  Send me your address and I'll send you my old set from Dirty Harry, my project car.  Also, I saw that you replaced the trunk hinges, I have a set of trunk springs from my 67 Cougar you're welcome to.  Just let me know and I'll send them with the hood hinges.

We are 90 miles north of Indy on hwy 31, we are 1hour and 20 minutes from w. Lafayette. I have that time down pretty good because we dedicate 1 week out of the month to go to the Whitehorse church, it is the most awesome church in our area. Rich.

Well sheesh, you could have just bought Gertrude and been ready to race within a couple weeks since that's what she was built for!   :lol

I don't have much laying around... hmm do you need racing seats? or a small steering wheel? what about a super cool (HA) diamond plate dash cluster?
I'm eventually going to change my seats/steering wheel out and I have JohnPro's dash cluster I'm going to put in one day.

Here's the spreadsheet in pdf. It is current as of this post. I did make a few assumptions as to how things will be relayed and such.

This thread is going so fast I can't keep up.

I will be home in the next day or two and will go through parts then.

Um, How about a Johnpro memorial on the trunk with the signatures of the contributors?

My radiator is a perfect racing radiator, but it is a cross flow.  when I looked into using it, I found the front apron would need to be cut to fit it and filled in at the top and bottom.  Or an oil cooler would be good for the bottom.  The radiator has trans line in and out.

I have a chrome pan for the C4.  I have pullys and brackets and all sorts of things just like everyone else. 

What ever Craig doesn't use may end up in Texas for a needy 66 I know of.

I've also got a bunch of fastners left over from the master bolt kit I bought, i will toss them in the battery box. Give me a few and I'll make a list of what I have.

Interested in a pair of slapper bars?  The kind that replace the bottom spring plates.  Let me know you cover the shipping and they are yours.

Thanks Kat but I would feel really low taking things from your project! I do have some black 68 front seats but they are shabby. I agree that if some folks have stuff that is duplicate, Kat's 66 is a good place to contribute. Mel, if you want to contribute to both "your the man!" The chrome C4 pan would be some nice bling. I've got two offers on radiators already. I think the aluminum one from Rusty red might be best for light weight. If I get the deal worked out for the 5.0 I will need lots of things like pulleys and brackets but I don't know how that will work yet, I've agreed to his offer to trade my stuff but he has to figure out how to get the engine here.

Fasteners, I need those, both the POS and this car were stripped clean!

As for slapper bars, I actually have a set of those around here somewhere... Thanks so much for the offer!

I've been working on getting this quarter panel to fit. see this thread http://www.stangfix.com/testforum/index.php/topic,9054.0.html
It just seams too long, I took it all the way off. I borrowed my friends plasma cutter and I'm gonna cut the left rear quarter off the POS and go all the way to the factory seam in the roof. It has rust but I think It will be better overall than the repop quarter.

I'm going to send Kat the dash pad and then battery box.

I have some old door panels for the 67.  They were new and sat in the 67 while at the first body shop.  They will work for a budget drag car though.  I will send you the chrome pan for the C4.  Send me your address.  You pay shipping and you can have it.
