Default Safe For The Road

Over the past couple weeks a buddy and I have given 0327 some much needed attention. Rotors, pads, brake hoses, bearings, shocks, struts, sway bar end links, tires, coolant temp sensor, lower radiator hose, and a bunch of odds and ends from an '82 in the junkyard (thanks for the heads up Greg) including a charcoal canister, correct onion head strut mount, oil cap, radiator cap, and a hood emblem for good measure. The goal continues to be to use Motorcraft or original parts wherever possible.
The final pieces came together this morning when I picked up my virtually brand new BFG's, got them mounted, installed, and bled the brakes.
I took her out for a test drive tonight and wow, what an entirely different car! Everything works so well together. I really couldn't be more pleased with the outcome.
