Who knows..

I did test drive one the other day..

 

[Cpotts13]

Todays the day!!! I ill hopefully post pics later today!

 

[Cpotts13]

and here it is guys!
My roof was flaking (stupid crystal white) so i had it repainted black

 

[Ferocious]

I like it

 

[Cpotts13]

thanks! it looks really sharp in person. i will get some better pics soon, these were just quickies with my phone.
I will be dropping it back of for them to buff and polish it again.

 

[belber095]

i love stormtrooper mustangs. 5% tint next, yes?

 

[Cpotts13]

So i have decided on what my next major project will be...

 

[Musturd]

Details dude ... That things looking sweet with the black roof . But yea back to details on next mods

 

[Cpotts13]

I am thinking my next mods (all at once) will be:
-poly mototr mounts that have been sitting in my garage forever.
-longtubes (idk what brand)
-alum ds
-ram stg 1 clutch
-alum fly wheel
-built rear end (31 spline, etc)



This will all probably be done around Christmas.. I leave for basic training July 23, so the car will have to be put on hold.


But hopefully before I leave i want to get :
-upr o/r x pipe (i have an o/r h)
-borla stingers (I have mac)

 

[Cpotts13]

-OE smoked headlights



-Professional products 75 mm tb and plenum which i scored for 130 on CL

Major Update:
Well I know I am slacking a bit with updating this thread. Not much has been done recently to it.
I had some problems with my PA alternator crapping out on me, so i went ahead and got a used motorcraft one of craigslist and sent the pa one to be replaced under warranty.

I know you guys may be wondering what the major update is..
As of July 23rd I will no longer own the car.

I leave for basic training for the Air Force July 22 and will be gone for sure till December.
But it isn't totally sad. I will be passing it down to my brother who is turning 16 at the end of July, my parents paid me $5,000 for it. After having it for 2 years and seeing it go from bone stock to far from it I am happy to pass it to my brother so he can enjoy it instead of it sitting around waiting for me to come back.

But guys! This isn't the end! By October of this year I will know what base I will be stationed at, and if it is state side I will be buying myself a new car.

I am looking at getting into:
-03/04 cobra coupe any color but white and black less then 30k miles and around $18k
or
-clean low miles azure blue mach 1 5spd

those are the cars i am kicking around. I am heavily leaning towards the cobra though

I wanted to thank everyone here at sn95forums for all the guidance and support! I will be sticking around here till the day I leave and whenever I can after, but this concludes the build of my 2000 Mustang GT.

Thanks!

Thank you for serving your country! Be sure to stay in touch! Post up your location in our "active duty" thread-sticky in the lounge

Let your brother know he's welcome to join us!

 

[Cpotts13]

I will for sure point him here. He has alot to learn, but is willing and showing interest. I cant wait to see what he has planned for it. He is already talking about getting racing seats and double din conversion! Wohooooo!

 

[krazyrabbit]

Thanks for serving and stay safe! I'm sure your brother thanks you, tell him to join up and let us know what he's doing to your old ride :wink:

 

[Cpotts13]

For those that followed my build from the day I got the 2000 Mustang gt yall know how much work and time that has been put into, so you can imagine how I felt when my bro was driving me home in it and it lost oil pressure and threw a bearing. The engine is knocking badly, but we shut it off at the first sign of trouble. It will need a new engine/ rebuld, but she will be saved.

 

[Cpotts13]

And here she is on her way to get her new motor



awaiting said new motor..


looks like those poly motor mounts will finally be put in.
btw the motor thats going in is a new 2001 GT crate motor :thumbsup:
