Do they make right hand drive s-550s(2015+ mustangs)?

 

[Rustic302]

Yes, I don't remember seeing any s-550s until last year though and I only realised they were available right hand drive when I saw one in a Ford showroom.

WOW
Been offline for a while now - summer holidays, Christmas, birthdays galore.
But I have done a few jobs on the car in that time, let me see where to start...

dash out and found source of interior leak: lower windscreen (dried out seals) and mainly around the hvac box

working on a cheap gauge repair until it's up and running, then I'll get some nice Dakota or Intellitronix digital unit when it's at the cosmetic stage

Can of worms aroun the engine bay side of the hvac

December
Some temporary rear seats that I sewed up with some left over 'pleather'. It's a bit thin so going to redo them later

 

[Rustic302]

Found ou why I don't have any breaks - main reason car isn't driving right now

 

[Rustic302]

Fixed it
not a very good picture but replaced all front hardlines and flexis
It was cheaper and easier to get flexis sent to UK from Rockauto (big thankyou!) than it was to find the right brake pipe nuts over here - kept getting sent metric sizes.
