Which one, Dennis? There are a few that I could think of that would 'fit'

Yep, was thinking of that one, too, but that's 427 cars only, yes?

Greetings!
Just come home from the workshop. Engine is in, with both front/side mounts now secured. The bottom of the oil pan sits just above the level of the bottom of the 'chassis' 
Will need a remote oil filter because of clearance issue with LH exhaust primaries. That's OK.
TKX is positioned, and ready to slide in.
I have made up an adaptor to fit my very nice (and very original looking) shift lever and knob to the TKX - I'm leaving the knob with its 4 speed pattern as per the original 289 cars.
More as it happens ...along with some pictures.
Cheers!
Glen

Hello all,
As reported in another thread, engine and gearbox are in.
Here's proof....
The car's on the floor at the moment, working on the engine front end, so can't take a picture from the underside, but all is square there.
Here's a picture of the interior...
If you look closely enough, you can see the cover on the front gearshift location that's causing some head scratching at the moment.
Seats have been out, and are just sitting in there at the moment, so their installed location can't be seen correctly.
edit: exhaust primaries are in; final design and routing of the exhaust is still to be decided
Cheers,
Glen
