Y-Guy Glenn: Looks killer, and I'm with Charlie on the help deal, I'm only an hour away and I'd love to meet with you and Charlie. About the negitive caster, I thought you should be on positive side to make it more stable, especially with that 100mph plus on the top end!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Keep the pictures coming. Bill

POS, NEG, whatever! Just tilt it back until the wheels flop over and then raise it backup a little bit. If it looks like a road grader when you turn the steering, it should be right! Thanks for the offer Bill, I may take you up on it when it's time to wire the beast.

Glen: So you came to Columbus without a Y car, and can't stand it? Welcome to our world of craziness. Looking forward to seeing the Falcon.

Got the dash in yesterday, John I've always had the "fevor" just never could afford the "pill". Frank talk about crazy, how about a guy that wanted a F code 57 so bad that he built all of the parts himself.

Some updates on the front suspension and engine mounts The front suspension and engine/trans mounts are now complete. Camera batt's died before I could get a completed shot. I will be moving on to completing the rear suspension next week and complete the interior floor rebuild. Then on to roughing in the plumbing and elec. The core support and rad are mounted. Will post more pic's next week.

I like those shock top mounts. Did you fab those yourself or were you able to find something like that?

Charlie, I fab'ed them from 3/16" plate. The shocks are from a mid 80's full size scrub blazer, just because I had them and they where free. The front springs are four leafs from a 64 f100, I may have to add a fifth leaf later on. I boxed the stock cross member and used the stock motor mount frame brackets. I fab'ed solid mounts that bolt to the stock frame mounts. I am using the flat-o-matic C4 adapter now, but after my visit with Ted, I may go with a SFI FE bellhousing later on and if I do that I most likely will replace the mounts with front and rear engine plates.

Does anyone have a nice simple wiring diagram that they can post or send me a copy. I have draw one up for the falcon, but just want to check before I start pulling wires. I have the basics, but I want to add relays for components such as fan, water pump ect. The complete system will consist of trunk mounted batt and cutoff switch, rear mounted fuel pump, starter relay, and starter. the dash will have a batt switch, start switch, oil pressure, water temp, volt meter and tach. Any suggestions on relays and fuse panels will be appreciated along with sorces.
