MMR Posted August 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 I ordered a B&M Hammershifter as well, the thing is that I didn't like how the hammer handle looked, so I ordered a "T-Handle w. button" for it, and hooked the button up to the O/D controls, so instead of me having to take my eyes off the road to locate the little O/D button, I simply have right by my thumb. Heres what I am talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMR Posted August 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 I got under my car one day and found this: I used Hammerrite, because it's cheaper than POR-15 and is easier to find overhere as well.Whoever undercoated my car didnt do a very good job..I decided to have alittle fun while waiting for the first coat to dry..I don't have any pictures from after the 2nd coat sorry guysanyway, products used: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMR Posted August 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 Ortiz performance is awesome, great service and tunes for sure.Whoever serviced my car last sure did a rubish job, 5 of my sparkplugs were AC Delcos and one were Champion.One of them had the wire bend so it didn't spark properly.and of course one was cracked too..

MMR Posted August 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 Here we are, cleaned up several things on the engine, including the altinator and A/C pumpThese were starting to rust in the sides so what the heck..Even these got a loving hand too..I wanted to try out a copper/gold paint I had lying around..Got these looking shiny new too..at some time my engine room had been painted before, and whoever did that seems to have used some kind of universal paint.not intended for metal thats for sure, looks more like an "indoor" type of paint. There thats better, hammerrite to the rescueI wanted to try out the Copper/gold paint on the brake wires as well, turned out OK I think.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MMR Posted October 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 Not really a build/restro update, just me who loves showing Ford pride. Not to mention the quallity of this Ford Merchandise is amazing. I know some of you think its stupid, but I like it and thats all that really matters.. ..Also because I am against buying things for my car that doesn't do anything performancewise if they don't come from ford or say Ford on them.I ordered these a few days ago and they just arrived today.
