No , I want to keep them. Originally I thought of cutting them out of the Mustang valance and welding them into the stock piece . Since the stock valance is in rough shape I'm going to modify the Mustang piece to fit. If that dosen't work out I'll go with the original plan , the stock valance is repairable.Also by using the Shelby valance it has the license plate mount , the Cougar had the plate between the taillights which I lost by going to the Shelby taillight panel.Last edited by langleylad; November 24, 2014, 05:36 PM. -

I think so , it's kind of looking like that . Besides the Shelby pieces going on , I've taken one manufactures engine and put it in another manufactures vehicle ( AC Cobra ) .Originally posted by silver_bullet View PostComment

Frankly, I'm glad he went to Ford, it gave Duntov the foil he needed to goad GM into an all aluminum 427 in the Corvette.Doing it all wrong since 1966Comment

I believe it's going to work . I think I'll end up cutting off the ends of the stock valance and adding them to the Mustang valance.Attached FilesComment

I got the valance all figured out and I'm very happy with it . I installed the rear bumper , fender extensions and trunk lid just to get a look at things . Next job is to get the bumper to fit better , it's twisted and the top and bottom sides is in need of straightening out . Bumper jack damage I presume . The bumpers will be painted body color .

It's getting there , slowly but surely . Lately I've been playing checkout chicken on the Summit checkout page . Do I or don't I spend the money , Kooks headers $1000Last edited by langleylad; December 7, 2014, 12:29 AM.Comment

I spent it , but not with Summit with Amazon . Great deal , Amazon was cheaper than Summit and in CDN $$$$ as well . Kooks 2010 Camaro SS stainless headers . They fit between the rails , BUT , I'll have to build new motor mounts AGAIN ! Oh well , gives me something to do . The steering shaft is going to be fun also .Attached FilesComment
