Sleazy's Garage
Doors Part 1 - Foxbody Restomod Part 75 - Taking apart the fox body mustang doors for restoration - In this video we first check out the bumper support from last week, then start taking apart the driver's side door to prep it for paint. Getting the glass out and removing the original run channel molding was certainly a learning experience.
Original Parts Restoration Part 2 - Foxbody Restomod Part 74 - Sand blasting and painting bumper supports and cold blue on the hardware - Decided to start tackling some of the backlog of parts I have to get sand blasted and painted. The front bumper supports were really grimy though so I fired up my new parts washer for the first time and it really impressed. I only managed to get one out of two of the bumper supports done but all of the hardware was cold blued. I spent a lot of time in the garage today and I didn't get a lot done. But what I did do looks pretty good!
Sound Deadening Install Part 2 - Foxbody Restomod Part 73 - Ouch! Sound deadening on the foxbody is almost done... (so sharp!) - Between the fine edge of the sound deadening, razor blades, and a super sharp battery box it's really a wonder that I didn't get worse cuts than I did. But we're pretty much done with the install I think.
Quick diagram and explainer of why it's common to move the battery to the trunk in a rear wheel drive vehicle.
Battery Relocation Kit Install - Foxbody Restomod Part 72 - This battery relocation kit is too sharp! - I installed a UPR battery relocation kit in my fox body restomod project car. My thoughts on the kit are below. I screwed up quite a bit but we manage to get it done in one video.
Sound Deadening Install Part 1 - Foxbody Restomod Part 71 - This sound deadening mat is sharp! - In this episode, we're installing the Siless sound deadening butyl mats in my fox body restomod mustang GT. This wasn't difficult to do but takes a really long time and I didn't get it done. So there will be a part 2 where we wrap it all up.
Manual Transmission Hump Kit Install - Foxbody Restomod Part 70 - Installing the hump and busting an air line! In this video I installed the LMR item LRS-7277A-K "1979-93 Mustang Manual Transmission Hump Kit". But first I had to get my other Mustangs ready for state inspections. One of my favorite air lines burst too.
Floor Pan Restoration Part 2 - Foxbody Restomod Part 69 - (nice!) This is a milestone video. Let's take a quick look back over the project and see what we're up to. I also painted the floorpan with POR-15 rust encapsulator to get it ready for sound deadening and took a ride in my father-in-law's all original 1971 Hemi charger.
Floor Pan Restoration Part 1 - Foxbody Restomod Part 68 - Wire wheeling the entire floor pan of my fox body restomod - I once again did a massive wire wheeling job on the restomod foxbody project. Using the wire wheel I removed the remaining crud, excess factory seam sealer, surface rust and exposed some deeper rust so that I can encapsulate it. This really put the grinder through its paces.
Brake Hard-line Install Part 4 - Foxbody Restomod Part 67 - Finishing up the hydroboost hard-line plumbing and NEW MERCH! - Finally finishing up the brake hard line installation with the Maximum Motorsports hydroboost swap tubes. I ended up also putting some other parts on the car like a brand new Motorcraft gas cap, the cleaned up door brackets, and the temporary steering wheel hub. Work got cut short due to a power outage though.
