Alright that was much easier than I thought. I guess this is the easy part right? ??‍♂️ I’m going to cut the firewall out including those 2 Heater hose holes as I won’t be using the stock heater/AC. Stay tuned! #protouring #wheels#mercurycougarxr7  #hotrod#classiccougar #68mercurycougar#transam #racecar

Got this front suspension removed, I installed it many many years ago and I did not get to actually use them at all ??‍♂️ upper arms are @globalwestsuspensionsprings and sway bar from Grab a trak suspension and @qa1motorsportsadjustable shocks. Time to revise this suspension setup  #protouring#wheels #mercurycougarxr7 #hotrod#classiccougar #68mercurycougar#transam #racecar
