Haha only the best in my garage! If it's not blue paper towel and electrical tape, its super glue. They're in the top drawer of my tool box for easy accessGreat work on working out the little issues.
I also see that you are using an "electrician approved" band-aid.

Fixed it for ya...My wife gets onto me about using electrical tape and blue PT, but I keep reminding her, that you can make electrical tape shrink to keep better pressure on the wound. She just rolls her eyes, I think a) I'm finally getting through to her (or b) she's just getting really good at ignoring me).
That's much better. Now that I think about it a bit more, my money is on B.Fixed it for ya

That is awesome, thanks Ross!!! I've been trying to figure out what on earth I was going to use to make splash shields. As sad as this sounds, I actually considered black pool liner material (like the stuff they use under gunite pools), but this is a way better option. Thank you much!Nice work!! Now you'll need to make custom splash shields for the inner fenders - use this:
Masticated Rubber
I'm ready to put train horns on your titanic when you're ready. Just say the word!Whew

Will do, thanks! Silly question, is there any reason you couldn't use SS marine pop-rivets in lieu of the clips? I've still got my original steel clips in the fenders, but I was thinking about going for a little different look. I haven't ever worked with the material (other than to remove it), so I don't know what it's limitations are when it comes to fastening, etc.You're welcome. Masticated Rubber is the original material used back in the day, and what they make the reproduction flaps from now. You can buy the clips from a number of resto suppliers too. Make sure you get the stainless steel ones too - they can be a bit brittle during installation, but they will remain purdy looking...
I have a train horn but am torn between installing it on Shamu (69 Fury vert) or Farty (‘15 Ford Fiesta).I'm ready to put train horns on your titanic when you're ready. Just say the word!

My wife HATES the fact that I have train horns, but I couldn't resist getting them. The shop that I buy all of my air management stuff from is a small shop out of Indiana, and they put together "kits" that include air management, DOT air hose, air bags, etc. Since I already bought my bags for fab, and I plumbed everything in stainless, I didn't need the lines or bags, so I called them up and asked them if I could swap that stuff out for the horns since they were the same price. Their response was a "yup, no problem." Couldn't get that kind of variability in Summit or Jegs. Hooray for buying from the small shops.I have a train horn but am torn between installing it on Shamu (69 Fury vert) or Farty (‘15 Ford Fiesta).
The engine actually is the same front to back, but it was raised up 1" so that I can clear a deep sump oil pan while the car is sitting on the ground.
Yup, that's the entire relay board. Since the spare tire and mount were "deleted" for my air management system, I mounted the circuit board between my AM stuff and the back seat.
Haha I have those pretty much everytime I look at the car. My poor neighbors probably think I've completely lost it because when I get stuck, and I just sit out in the driveway staring at the car. Shoot just this past weekend, I probably stood in the driveway for half an hour just staring at the engine compartment.Ohhhh it was an optical dillusion to me. It looks like that mount goes back rather than up. I get it now.
