MODIFICATIONS-Non audio.

There are many different things I have modified and or restored. For right now I am just putting the major things, and will later put more on.

The first thing I noticed needed to go was the air intake. I have not even seen smaller intakes on 4 cylinder cars!.

It also looked ugly, so i took that off and put a chrome air filter houseing on, with a custom made base because apparently the neck size of the carburator is different from any standardized fittings.

I also took advantage of the fact that this car has a high displacement, and replaced the stock mufflers with two Original Flowmaster 40 series mufflers, it required some unique fittings but turned out very nicely
Other things done to restore this car are: Repainted rear "dash", Repainted seat parts, side panels fixed up, steering wheel cover and floor mats, chrome exhaust tips, replaced rear ford symbol.

*Update* I replaced my tailpipes with 2.5" pipes and 2 foot exhaust tips coming out the back, its a lot louder now and gave me much better exhaust flow then the old highly restrictive pipes. Also add some big chrome exhaust tips out the back.

My unique "Variable Venturi" carb. Some people say they have problems with them but mines still going strong. I intend to repaint the valve covers as soon as the weather warms up!!

It says top speed of 125, I know she can do better than that. My 82 pegged out 140 at 3/4 throttle. Always loved these cars
