    Picked up at jy today

    So I went to the junkyard today to get head bolts for the ghost. Also picked up a few other random things. I've already tried fitting the console but it won't work. Got the head and everything put back on the car today too. She started up, but dies when I accelerate....I'm guessing it's the timing. I'm also getting a check engine light.

      It is an underseat tray, but it's from a tracer. I grabbed it just for the heck of it

          The console doesn't have cup holders...it's just a flip out storage compartment. I wanted to swap out the whole console but it seems to be a little too wide near the ebrake.

                    Because I'm a former Ford tech, who worked on these engines when they were new, and I still have the service publications.

                      Yeah, I did my research first and found out I could re-use them. Besides, NOBODY had them new.

                      Freshtiva-Those are chrome exterior handles from a Mercury tracer. I think they'll fit but I haven't tried them yet. Pretty much all the stuff I picked up at the junkyard that day was from the same tracer.

                          Yeah, I thought I was screwed when I called around and couldn't find any new ones. Luckily good ol fordfestiva.com gave me the good news about re-using old bolts

                            no prob. No one thought you were being 'smart' or rude.
