I'm all over the place with the project. I bought it as a roller with no driveline with the intent of just getting it running. However, once I got in there, I noticed all of the bushings, brakes, etc. were all old and crumbling, so I decided to replace it all. Fortunately (or unfortunately depending on your point of view) I had shelves full of upgraded parts waiting for another project, so they all found there way onto the 79. Full Bullitt suspension, Cobra/Baer brakes built rear end, wheels/tires, etc. It was ready to drop the motor in (built 347) and our 2nd kiddo came along. About that same time, I bough an 03 Cobra, so my enthusiasm for this project kind of died off.

Then I started hanging around on this board and now I want to return it to stock. :-/ (It had been modded just enough by a previous owner that I didn't feel bad about restomodding it.)

I dunno, I have automotive A.D.D. so now I'm wanting to sell my 03 cobra and dust this project off again. It just needs a brake line or two, some minor wiring and plumbing (return style fuel system w/ electric pump to feed the 347) and install the motor/tranny and it's ready to make some noise. We just moved though, so I have several weeks of just unpacking and organizing the garage before I can do anything. :-/

This thread I'm sure will help my motivation!

Don't return it to stock. It looks better as it is. Besides there are enough stock ones around.

I agree. Keep it modded, you'll have more fun! You'll be getting the "thumbs up" and "cool ride" EVERYWHERE you go when you're all finished with it.:cool: That alone will make it worth the effort!

[Blacksnake]

I agree, mod it. Thats what I'm doing with my second one.

[pacecar1979]

Here is my 1979 Pacecar. The current mileage is over 220,000 miles. I've paced a few events and have won numerous 1st place trophies around Washington State. Most of you probably know how to tell what pacecar number your car is but my car is # 1706. This car was borderlined unrestorable. It had a hole in the roof and a hole in the drivers floorboard. Lots of work but definately worth it. This is a Dearborn assembly plant car with a V8 manual transmission. I just received my Marti Report a few months ago and found out the selling dealer. Great information. I hope you like it. Thanks, Steve

[Foureyedfoxbody]

Great thread! I love pace cars

[The LX Kid 5.0]

Heres my contribution its a 302 C4 car San Jose Plant built,I lovwered it with eibachs (trimed it a coil in the back to make it more level) gonna do a T5 conversion( c4 tranny is slipping bad!), it has an 85 faux dual exhaust (not cats) 4 barrle conversion (off and 85 gt) got the parts for a 87-93 4 lug disk brake swap and a 3.73 posi disc brake rear from a Tbird turbo coupe that is also sitting in the shed. Interior is not all there (needing the body plug kit before i lay down the trim. it started raining today so the moon roof is leaking! :-( its leaking from the metal guides (the plastic guides that screw to the body)

[paceded]

I think I need to go get me some black wheels for my pace car.
