A grand worth of stuff AND a free T-shirt....WOW!
$2,100.00 worth of shit lol 
updates? pics? im getting impatient with this build! ha
None as of the last few days. Just been staring at my maximum Motorsport purchase in my living room lol
Doing an inventory of what I have this weekend and the Bullitt should be going under the knife Sunday.
Goal is to have the engine and trans out of the Bullitt and it back on the ground as a roller to make room for this guys gt that my engine is going into.

UPDATE:
Took this week off of work to get things rolling.
Very eventful first day off.
Got to my parents house and in the garage around 9 am, took the Bullitt for one last incredibly slow ride (2v fail) and got it on the lift. Everything went smooth as silk. I can pretty much do this in my sleep now. Took me a tad longer than usual though, I stopped and bagged and tagged EVERY single nut bolt and bracket. Took my time to get christmas trees in the wiring harness out without breaking them.
Last view of the stock 265hp SOHC 2v failure.
4v DOHC waiting patiently for it's new home.
set up a couple tables to keep everything organized
Just starting to lift the car away from the engine, trans and K member.
surprisingly enough, I didn't forget anything and the first hit everything came out perfect. Usually I forget a ground strap or something stupid lol
Boom Diggity, it's out.
Stripped the engine down to a long block and removed all the Bullitt specific intake parts and accessories and yanked it off the factory K member.
I shoved the stock K and suspension back in the turd just to get it rolling again,
mopped the floor, and shoved everything under the car and called it a night. I am beat.

Man she looks absolutely beautiful! I really wish I had facilities like this to do my swap! Keep up the good work! You're really gonna like it when she's done!
I will drop off my cobra, just for an oil change lol! But dang dude nice work coming along nicely.

damn nice set up to work in. Can't wait to see the rest of the week.
The rest of this week has been focused on this car lol.
A friend of mine owns a detail shop, and the owner of this car came in talking about his mustang with a blown engine blah blah.
Needless to say he is paying me to take my Bullitt 2v and put it in his car. So that's what I will be working on the rest of the week. It's going to finance more parts for the terminated Bullitt build.

Damn, JMAC, this is such a cool thread.
When I read the first part of the thread, I was ready to talk shit to you for hacking up two nice cars, but as your build has progressed, I cant help but envy and admire your clean and professional looking work. I bet when the Bullitt is done, its going to look like it came from OEM that way.
By the way, I love your garage. One day, I'll have a lift like that at my house.

No it didn't
looked like shit, doesn't flow with the car.
Roush stuff never flows.
When the chin spoiler goes on and the black SVE drift wheels go on. It will be complete.
Promise, I am good at this
That Roush shit looks like a bag of syphlitic balls. The OEM panels look much, much, much better. Roush body kits are so Fast n Furious.

My old 2v has successfully been swapped into this guys car. Fired it up last night and he's on the way to get it.
Now I have a few more bucks to play with in the car fund.
This week should have some Bullitt updates. I plan on swapping the dash harness and computer this week.
This will be a tedious process as I want everything ran factory and all clips and Christmas trees in the correct spots. I am
Going to take my time on this part.

ok, full steam ahead!
Went over to the garage today and tinkered around a little bit.
I got the front bumper cover off and headlights, degreased the engine bay (didn't really need it lol).
That is far as I wanted to go in the engine bay. The plan was to get the car ready for the Terminator Drivetrain before I put it in. A lot easier to mess with harness swaps when there isn't a drivetrain in the car.
So I painstakingly removed the seats, console and dash. labeled EVERYTHING, and bagged and tagged every damn bolt I took out as I took it out. every christmas tree and harness clip was removed perfectly.

Making good progress! That bullitt really is CLEAN!
A lot of people are on my ass for tearing apart a minty fresh unmolested Bullitt.
I tell you what though, I enjoy working on a clean mint car that no one has messed with.
There aren't any surprises anywhere.

Bro, that is ALWAYS the case when first starting. People I know thought I was crazy for messing with my Bullitt. But in looking back its the best thing I ever did to the car. All the benefits of a Terminator and the sleeper effect of a Bullitt is the perfect car.
Half of me wishes I would left most of the appearance stock to mess with people, but in the end I'm driving my dream car and there's not another like it anywhere.
