Project Lime67 update
I think like most of us, life happens and our builds begin to span multiple years, which also helps the wallet. But I've recently thrown some more money at my 1967 Mustang Coupe, and thought I would share the progress.
My first recent upgrade was to a Classic Instruments AutoX dash. I was getting tired of dealing with crappy speedo cables breaking, as well as the A-pillar gauges I was running. Long story short: this gauge setup is awesome!
Next up were the brakes. I had gone back and forth between Wilwood and Street or Track, but ended up going the SoT route as it was more inclusive of parts, and I preferred the rearward mounting position of the front calipers. 13" front, 12" rear w/parking brake.
And last but not least: wheels and tires. I had a really hard time finding a wheel I liked for a reasonable price, but ended up going with Torq Thurst IIs in 17x8 and 17x9.5. Tires are 245/45 front and 275/40 rear. I run about -1.5-2 degrees of negative camber to keep the front tires front rubbing with the ride height.
Next up: I need to sort out my leaf springs as the driver's side sits lower than the passenger. I also want to add subframe connectors, a baffled oil pan as I'm looking to start autocrossing this thing, and fuel injection.
