Turning the Lights On - Foxbody Restomod Part 121 - In this jumbo video I patched together a bunch of clips installing and testing LED lightbulbs in the project mustang. By the end we have just about all the lights working AND the rear tail light lenses installed.
Reinstalling More Electrical - Foxbody Restomod Part 120 - Sorry, only one more major electrical video after this one! This has been 2 steps forward 1 step back but slow and steady progress. No fires yet!
Body Harness Reinstall - Foxbody Restomod Part 119 - In this short video, I just cleaned up the old body harness and reinstalled it. It's the one that goes from the driver's kick panel to the rear of the car and across under the seats.
Fog Light Reinstall - Foxbody Restomod Part 118 - It's weird how much we get done in these videos and then the title is just about like 1 minute of it. But yeah, we reinstall the restored fog light bracketry, the smoked fog lights with LED bulbs, the headlight switch, the HVAC controls, the new front air dam, a potentially new horn relay, and the hood latch bracket. I'm still having some electrical issues though, which, if you think about it, is totally understandable.
Headlight Harness Reinstall - Foxbody Restomod Part 117 - In this documentation video we're putting the "restored" headlight harness back in, installing some horns, fixing some grounds, and putting some LED bulbs in our new fog lights. I originally cleaned the headlight harness up back in 2020 (I think) right after the main chassis harness.
Just answering a couple of viewer questions about my foxbody restomod project while I change the fuel pump in my wife's 2003 Mustang (V6). There's an anonymous Q&A form on the website if you wanna get your question in the next one. https://www.sleazysgarage.com/
Parking Brake Resto and Stance Check - Foxbody Restomod Part 116 - I've been wondering what the car will look like on the NVX wheels with the front fenders on. So in this build documentation video I'm putting on the wheels, front fenders, buttoning up some loose ends on the underside of the car (brake fluid leak, adjustable parking brake cable, and a parking brake control restoration) and pushing her outside for some fresh air.
Dash Cluster Restoration - Foxbody Restomod Part 115 - I realized my dash cluster was looking pretty bad. It was mostly because the lens was in terrible shape. So in this video I took the whole thing apart, cleaned it aggressively, did a terrible job repainting some of the lines, a better job painting some other things, replaced the lens with a really slick replacement, replaced the bulbs with LEDs, and tested all of them. A lot of work that will likely be replaced with a Dakota digital dash at some point in the future. It's better than it was!
Temporary Seat Install - Foxbody Restomod Part 114 - I'm pushing to test drive the car but saving all of my money for a transmission. That means I'm going to install a temporary racing bucket so I can move the car around. Finally another opportunity to fire up the welder! Feel free to light me up in the comments for my craptastic metal fab work here. I'm just pumped for the first sit in the car in 24 years!
