Been taking care of some odds and ends on the cougar lately:

1) New upper radiator bracket. It did have a couple of old hack job pieces there to do the job. Got a reconditioned one off eBay that looks great and put it on. Only snafu was trying to find the proper nut clip fasteners(found right length in one of dad's "magic" boxes). Cost=@$30

2) New battery hold down and J-bolts. Formerly had ugly and cheap walmart stuff there, never cared for the fit. Got the original stuff from VA mustang and put it on. Looks better and battery is more secure. Cost=@10. Should have done it this way to start with

3) Relocated Coil. I just never liked where it was before. Cost=$0

Easy cheap quick work, but it sure does look better!

I've got a few other projects in store for the winter, too.

Tinkering is cool!

It also prevents you from choking the sh*t out of somebody!
