Hi All, happy to get in !!

First of all, i would like to appologize for my poor american language ! I'm living in France, and I do not control all technical terms.. I hope wou'll be tolerant
My name is Nicolas, i'm curently working on a 79 indy pacecar réplica. This car was too rusty to be rebuild as a new, so i decided to make a great project with swapping 302 engine and C4 trans for a 4.6 4V engine and T45 tranny, coming from a 1996 cobra.
front end comes from a 97 GT and rear end comes from a 2002 GT... brakes and rims comes from the 96 cobra too
Here in France, Fox body mustang are not well considered, so mine is the first modular fox in the country... ;D

i'm also working on a hot rod project, and before tat, i used to have a 67 hardtop with 289ci engine and T5 tranny...

I will post photos of all that later.

Regards


Nicolas

It's a little more complicated than envisaged...

Which kit did you order? We are ordering this week the Ford 4.6 1993-1995 Mark VIII Harness MK-93 $900.00... Since we remove the motor from a Mark VIII they say this is the one we need... It still uses the EEC-IV computer hope that is a good thing..
