Re: 1952/3100/uk

The rest of 2014 was a bit of an up and down year in terms of progress. we made some great headway with the front end initially in that i decided to go with a Mustang 2 front clip with ifs/disk breaks/power steering etc. After a lot of shopping around i hear some really good reviews of the heidts mustang 2 so had that imported and installed. I then had what (looking back on) id describe as a bit of a brain malfunction...It had always been my intention to make this a modern running vehicle but look as traditional as possible on the outside. I did however get a little lost with the original idea of making a muscle car in favour of making it modern...I basically over thought it, read a lot of forums about mpg/ performance etc and convinced myself it would be a good idea to put a diesel engine into it. We did plenty of research into possible engines that would work and even found a really nice BMW 3lD engine out of a 5 series which richard started to install.
