The Montego already had the Cyclone dash and buckets installed when I purchased the car, but I converted it to a manual and added the console. Aside from a reproduction front spoiler, everything else was FoMoCo, including the Magnum 500 wheels. I had wanted to complete a Cyclone wagon, and had located a hood, but its condition was a little rough and I couldn't justify removing the original one as it was just so clean and original (except for the added FoMoCo hood scoop, from a Cougar I believe). Of course finishing out the Cyclone look was going to be stupid pricey--a nice grille and headlamp assy was going to be difficult, if not impossible, to locate.

...I do regret selling it.

Oh for sure on the prices of grille pieces!  Is that the car Evan Smith has now?

I have a new old stock set of Mickey Thompson aluminum FE rods from 1965 and they use Allen heads like that.

Yes, notices that and it makes me wonder when the picture was taken that they have a Boss 429 by then?

Some cool stuff there!

How many of us clicked "add to cart" ?

Seems a lot of them think they are converting the car to an independent front suspension. As if it wasn't already. Because the kits for 1948 and earlier Fords say that. But then these people are sometimes in charge of the rules like at a circle track a local guy raced at. They would not allow any Ford engines except a Y-Block because "no angle plug heads"

Lesson is to not let Chevy guys work on Fords. They know diddly squat about them and screw them up. One local yahoo is a diehard Chevy guy but wanted a Cobra kit car... and it had to be "correct" with a 427 Ford. So of course he had starter problems, never solved despite spending thousands on different fancy starters and flywheels and shims, never even knew they made ones for Fords but they do, a ring with the bolt holes. So then finally, after a year he calls me and asks what the flat plate is for on the new thousand dollar Quicktime bellhousing "My Lakewood never had that".
