I did. They're standard Mustang II bolt-in replacements. They aren't beautiful, but some button-head cap screws would have cleaned them up a bit. The car was full fendered anyhow.Jack

I am also about to do a tubular on my 56F100 but having to make my own clip as well but Jag based. See my thread re Ally fuel tank in this section.

Then I overbuilt the control arms using 4130 1.125" o.d. X 0.188" wall. Next time I'll use 1.250" X 0.125" for the bottoms and 0.750" X 0.125" for the uppers. The thinner tubing on the upper arms will be aesthetically pleasing.Last edited by techinspector1; 01-01-2007 at 08:19 PM.

Thanks Glenn, it’s believed to be a Gen 5. 454. I’ll see if I can snap some pics of the stamped and cast numbers and post them here. Maybe we can define the year and model
