I have a fully restored '68 Mustang Convertible that is going to a new home. I've had that car for years and was a great cruising car when I lived in Seattle, but Texas is just too damn hot! We never really can enjoy it with the extreme heat here.
The cats were missing as well as the mufflers. Straight pipes all the way back.

I bet his boys are waiting up for him.
A set was sold on ebay about 6 months ago. I think it was 4x4x4 (something else) that purchased them. They were new and never installed. It was the replacement set for the 88 year, Not the orrigional ones that were first produced. I changed mine to the updated oem ones with the recall-lost a lot of power. I kept the orriginal ones to change out at a later date. Hope that helps.boostedmaxPSI said:SUCCESS!
Chualk one more Callaway up for Team Texas.
88-57 is now a Texan. Car is super clean on the outside and inside. I need to take some time and tiddy up the engine bay and hook up Shop's Tech II and make sure everything is ok.
Three things need to be addressed ASAP. There's no exhaust on this car
I spoke with the Callaway team about a replacement part, so if anyone has B2K cats they don't need let me know.
Then there's the slight hesitation on the top end. WOT seems to be a problem. If I back off the accelerator just a touch then the car starts picking up speed again. Any ideas? I'm thinking microfueler and or TPS checks
Finally, seems like there's a high idle at times and possible sticking throttle. Maybe the IAC needs cleaning and reset. During the daytime I'll investigate this further.
Other then that this is really nice car. The interior is damn near perfect as well as the Dymag wheels.
The car came with an unusual "Callaway Owner's" box. I've never seen anything like this before. The seller keep telling me about this box of stuff!??!?! Well this box has the owner's supplement leather kit in perfect condition as well as some other Callaway leather binders. I thought it was pretty neat.
The "box" is black in color with 2 red pin strips and some language about a privelaged owner. It's about 12" long and 10" wide and 2" deep. Anyone else have or seen this before?
That's about it. When I get it all cleaned up I'll post some pictures.
And yes the "big Wonderbar" needs to go on.

I have both of the complete front exhaust systems. I performed the recall myself. After driving the car, the power loss was noticable, so I kept the orrigional set up. I will probably build a custom 3 inch and use a megaphone tip. I do not need converters as it is not a checked item in this part of Texas. The problem I see with the factory megaphone is the inlet size is only about 2 1/4 inches. I still have the orrigional ones from my 87. I will probably make something a little bigger. I also thought about using a B&B 3 inch set up from a ZR1 and modifying the front to fit the turbo's. Any thought on that?callaway4fun said:
