For those of you who don't know, "Elvira" is my name for my Mustang.  This year I worked hard and bought a lot of parts.  This post is to chronicle everything I did this year.  As a result of my work schedule, I didn't do as much wrenching as I would've liked, but i'll at least post a list of all of my shiny new parts.  Format is Summit part # (if applicable) followed by a description.  Here goes!

SUM-G3001 - Summit 14"x3" chrome air cleaner w/ logo
SUM-G2999 - Summit air cleaner wing nut w/ logo
SUM-G3320 - Summit chrome baffled valve covers
SUM-G2320 - Summit cork valve cover gaskets
SUM-G3400 - Summit chrome push-in breathers
SUM-G3410 - Summit breather grommets
SUM-G3420 - Summit chrome valve cover wing nuts
SUM-G3435 - Summit chrome valve cover spreader bars
EDL-21214 - Edelbrock Performer intake manifold w/ Endurashine finish
EDL-7220 - Edelbrock intake gaskets
SUM-373040 - Summit chrome o-ring water neck
Autozone 160-degree thermostat
EDL-2122 - Edelbrock Performer-Plus camshaft kit (i'll post specs if anyone's interested)
EDL-1406 - Edelbrock Performer Series 600 CFM carburetor w/ electric choke
SUM-810070 - Summit chrome alternator case
Autozone Valucraft remanufactured alternator
Transmission Exchange Co. RAD-4 transmission rebuild kit w/ brass synchros (I plan on swapping in a five-speed, so this will likely make its way into another II sometime down the road)

That's about it.  Next summer I hope to be able to buy a remanufactured engine from Autozone to bolt all of this stuff to.  I have $40 in Summit Bucks and a $50 Autozone giftcard, so i'll use those towards a few minor things i'm missing, like valvesprings and a timing chain.  Happy New Year everyone!
