#FairmontProject Final Assembly (Part 2)

17 Jan

From here on in, the #FairmontProject videos will be, for the most part, episodic. Meaning, I’m going to chronicle the build as it happened rather than post videos about installing certain parts.

In this episode I wrap up the work on the K member with a little custom fitting and some borrowed parts from the Mustang. I also start work on the cold side piping of the turbo.

Fun fact: I believe this is the last video Cameraman Brian worked with me on the build. He had other work and some travel that kept him busy.

What Happened to Cameraman Brian?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iw9sxtHyw4

Be sure to tune in at the end for some bloopers.
