Finished most of the work on KMP249 and took her for a few quick shakedown runs today.
Woooodoggies. Got some real dirty looks from two ladies walking their dogs.
They ain't seen nothing yet!
Needs some minor sorting--the throttle linkage is causing me the most grief--seems real stiff. And I think the clutch slave needs to be downsized per a situation that is identical to another KMP owner who is local--.700 Wilwood master trying to drive a 1 inch slave--not a good combo. I want to thank GeorgiaSnake for an occasional well needed hand and kicks in my rear end. Also, the other gentlman in the pic is Ron Jones, Mustang restorer extraordinaire (both are pictured, Ron is the better looking of the two
). I also want to thank some others such as Cracker for hounding me, and the Kirkhams for the phone support early in the build. Thanks guys!
I did a little scotchbrite action with running water after this photo, and have some minor punch list items to do. I also will do an
oil change very early as I undid and reconnected some
oil line stuff which ideally needs to be done empty.
