Another quick update, I am fitting the body onto my frame, a few changes are needed and then I will start on the birdcage. I still need to find a hood and deck lid but that will come after I buy the disc brake kit for the rear, Speedway motors has one for $430. with the emergency brake. More later. Carl

What a day, picked up a 97 Ford Explorer disc brake rear end today and started to disassamble it and can't believe a Michigan part is in such great condition, the emergency brake even works, worn out, but works. I will be mounting this brake setup on my 9in for the disc brakes, a lot cheaper than a kit. The info comes from the Ford Muscle web site and a couple Ford guys who were on the bus last Saturday as we went to Autorama. More later with pictures.

Hey Carl, sounds like you had luck on your side with that rear, can't wait to see more pictures. I've used that Ford Muscle website before, lots of good info on it.
Are you guys still moving to Arkansas?

The discs are fitted to the 9in, the mounting holes had to be elongated approx .200 toward the center on the vertical, the location front to rear is just fine, I will try to post a drawing of the overlayed hole patterns. Pics will follow when I get the parts sang blasted and painted. The drawing cannot be uploaded but if anybody wants a copy I have it in DXF format which I can email if needed.

Update; got my seats(94 Acura Integra) and a hood from a Mkll, all I need for the body to be complete is a trunk lid. The other major items left to purchase are the windshield, aluminum sheet and wire harness.

Another update, the hood is here, came on April 10, the trunk lid will be here within the next week. The hood is from Idaho, and the trunk is from Washington state. I haven't checked how many but I have parts from many states, Maine to Calif., to Texas and Fla, Mass., to Ariz. Here's a couple pics.
More later Carl
