Before & After

ElrodKTPQ_89 · Dec 6, 2013

Found some pics of my car when I bought it, it had been sitting in the corner of my backyard under a pine tree for two years before we pulled it out and went to work on it. I think the P.O. said it had been sitting since like 2005 or something at his house before he brought it here to my house 3 years ago to work on it. He stopped working on it, and it sat back there til I finally talked him into selling it.

Can't leave out my crew chief, Jona.

I'll post my 'after' pics in a few minutes stay tuned..

It belongs to a friend, it's in his shop now. It's getting new floor pans and a heap of other sheet metal work on stage 1, then he hopes to find either a Coyote or 5.8L GT500 motor for stage 2. He already has a beast of a truck: 66 F100 slammed down on some Raceline Muscle's with a 500+HP 460 and a C6. I'll find a pic of it, more people should behold its glory lol.

Thanks man I really appreciate it! I do have a build thread I just for some reason decided to make this separate, lol. And no it's the stock intake, I may get a Trickflow top end one day though. But for now the only extras are headers and exhaust and a K&N filter, and pretty soon a set of Crane 1.7 RR's I have on my shelf.

Thanks man! I'm definitely trying not to go overboard on it. I wanna get used to how the car is mostly stock then slowly start doing more to it.

Sorry guys, haven't checked this in a little while and I guess I missed your post the last time. It's down for now due to some crazy unknown issue, and I just got my title last week...but hopefully by the time it gets warm here I'll have everything worked out and have it legal. Then my next goal will be lowering it and tinting the windows and putting a few miles on her! Thanks for the comments too everyone!
