Spent the weekend aligning stuff. Looks like for it to be perfect the hood needs to be trimmed a little. But good enough to move forward.
Here's what it looks like so far.
This week, plans are to get the driveshaft installed, exhaust installed and bleed the brakes.

Looks like I'm gonna still use that prop rod. Damn MRT hood struts just can't stay erect. LateModelRestoration is sending me replacements, even though I ordered them back in February 2015. [ 2016-01-12, 05:07 PM: Message edited by: RRRCobraSC281 ]

Well, I've been working on the window motors off and on for a week now and it seems that there's a motor rotation sensor on the cuircut board inside the power motor housing. I'm now in search of the passenger side power window motor because I need the motor attached to the housing. The way I'm going to wire it is going to be like the one on the left.
Also working on putting steering rack limiters. This can work for power steering racks as well. These flaming river steering racks are aftermarket and allow the wheels to turn further than stock which is a problem. Made these spacers out of 1" pvc pipe. My proto type was on the larger side (7). I made 6 more in varying smaller sizes.

Yes after I get the doors lined up better. Want to wait until I get sub frames welded in and the car on its wheels. Then make sure that all the doors are lined up, then install the side trim. It will probably be one of last the last things I do.

Solved the dome light mystery. It seems that the 1 ground I didn't attach on the driver see was the culprit. Once it was securely fastened the dome light worked as it should.
Worked on the power mirrors today. Almost straight forward. But of course nothing it easy with this build. The up/down worked as it should, but the left/right was backwards. I needed to reverse the wiring to the 1 motor. But of course, wires were not used here. Sorry about getting ahead of myself and not taking a true before pic.
Here is what it looks like after I rearranged the power grid for the left/right motor.
Here what it looks like with the everything wired up on the driver side, minus the door speaker. [ 2016-01-17, 12:19 AM: Message edited by: RRRCobraSC281 ]

I have the wire from that disconnected. So no, it doesn't pulse down and up when opening or closing the door.

Last few weeks been trying to find reasons why the car won't turn over, and found that the PCM relay coil isn't coming on. I suspect it's a PATS issue. Went to the local Ford service department and they have told me that it is very likely that it will need to be retrained, since the battery was disconnected for over a year. Taking the car to have them reprogram PATS this coming Monday. Hopefully that's it and I'll be able to finish up the exhaust and take it to BAR ref and get it certified California smog compliant.

PATS has been re-taught. 2nd key made. Car sounds tough. AC system charged. Making transition pieces for the S197 H-pipe to SN95 cat-backs. Did note that there is a very small leak on the AC low pressure hard line were it was shortened and welded back together.
Will take care of it when I have my buddy weld the full length sub frames.
Gonna investigate why the park light lights up when I use the turn signals. It's not noticeable when the park/head lights are on. But that kinda stuff bugs me.
And next week Thursday I'll have a temporary permit so I can present the car to the BAR referee. So far no check engine light.
After driving it around the dealership and loading it on and off the trailer, I'm rethinking the manual steering rack. It sucks not having power steering. [ 2016-02-16, 11:48 PM: Message edited by: RRRCobraSC281 ]
