    Heck yeah, would love to see the air conditioning install. I know it’s probably been done before but I like the way you tackle and explain things as you (and Jim) work your way through these projects

    Yes, it would be interesting to see the Vintage Air kit as I have seen a lot of them and people say they love them, but no one has shown an install. As for the air ride, not something I would do as speed bumps in Ontario are growing up everywhere.

    One of the advantages of air ride is being able to get over speed bumps. Hit button 3 and the car instantly raises to a height much higher than a stock suspension.

    A hoist would be great, but I think my shop is just too narrow. If I had a hoist in that spot, I couldn’t have a car parked in the space beside it.

    @@LGKustoms My friends used to be the single pump hop champions.... so he knows his stuff. He's old and he's done it all. The car has stock suspension up front and a triangulated four link in the back. I told him I didn't want a hopper or dancer, just a clean and comfortable dependable cruiser. I've driven it everywhere and it drives like a Cadillac. The way he designed my suspension's ride..... it's so nice. The car has never had shocks in it since it got juiced and it rides completely totally stockish comfortable..... you'd never know it's on hydraulics if I didn't specifically point it out. It's got a pumped y block, 5 speed, and stock rear. She's fun. The reason for going with hydraulics for me was adjustable stance.... some times I swap wheels and it has a different vibe. Sometimes I just prefer hydraulics over air. On this car, they're more old school. The problem with Fords when they're slammed down is that oil pan is out front exposed like a bladder. I wanted to shield it (like a GM), but honeslty I've never got around to it. If you need any hard to find parts for that car I've got a source local to me that has a warehouse of old NOS Ford parts. He is strictly 100% correct by the book. He uses ONLY old Ford catalogs and those projector screen diagrams. All his literature and cataloging is old done with oem stuff like an official old Ford dealership would have.

    Full build? Or full air ride install? On average most air ride set ups are around $6000 in parts and $5000-$6000 in labor
