Coming together! Woot! Pics/Vid

Well its taken me 3years but the car is almost one piece again. All of the work was done by me and my friend Chris (95pgttech) who i couldn't of done this without. (many thanks man) He let me keep the car at his place for the last 3 years. Dont be to harsh this was my first time doing any bodywork/welding or tackling anything this big in general.

I drove it around a bit today and the tune still needs work. (Lean on CL tip in). So i disabled CL at idle and that solved the problem for now. I cant wait to dial this thing in and get some numbers. The car turns alot of heads but thats probably because it needs paint bad. Im out of money to use on this thing so maybe next year.

I still need to mount the switch for the line lock, mount the push pull cut off and do a few other odds and ends. Id also like some quieter mufflers car is to loud.

Very nice car, I remember seen your car everytime chris posted pics of his cobra in the garage.

And what's all done to the engine? I see you have the Fox tb conversion and TFS intake.

And Dutch need to upgrade to pro.. Lol

 

[boosted93]

Very nice! That bay looks badass! Are those 17s or 18s? Also you could primer that hood back and it should look a bit better

[Knuckles@Empire]

great car, congratz on getting her all done up. looking forward to seeing this car with some paint.

I have to ask this,
Why did you go with the camber bolts when you have CC plates and also did your car develop any vibration at highway speeds after the dog-bone was removed? Mine did, thinking about put back on.

In order to get camber in to spec i needed both. Im running a qa1 tubular k member with stock sn95 control arms. Tubular k members are designed to work with a fox length A arm. Our A arms are one inch longer, that being said the wheels were pushed farther away from the shock tower. The camber bolts fixed this issue.

I have 0 vibration with the dogbone removed. Do you have an aluminum drive shaft? The rule of thumb is if you have one you can remove the dog bone.

Its gonna be a long time. I have crazy student loan debt and dont see having money to do it for some time. I could always rent a booth and spray it my self. I did the engine bay and it turned out ok. I only work on the car and drive it on the weekends. It stays in NJ and i just recently moved down by DC.

Nice job!

If Chris was working on it with you then you know it was done right. Just by reading his posts on all the forums you can tell he is a perfectionist.

We both are... its a problem some times... it takes us awhile to get things done because we want it done right. The budget for this car was super low so we made do with what we had. I was cruising around 130 yesterday with it. The cars home is in SNJ


I had about $1200 in the motor and about $800 in the headers.. the rest was all small purchases.

Thanks man, sure is funny! Love what you did to the car!

 

[97stanger]

nice bro! where at in SJ? I live 5 mins from Route 130...if your ever in the area again we should meet up and take some pics and do some pulls

 

[Javi]

Gotcha! and yes i have an aluminum driveshaft.
maybe i should get it balanced as the drive shaft wasnt meant for a mustang lol

Did you try to change the orientation of the DS??? clock at different angles? Thats where id go next.

 

[thorco3]

Love the smoothed engine bay. What kind of material did you use for the fender pieces? I've got some pics of similar setups saved... if/when the motor is ever pulled from my car I will most def be doing some kind of setup to fill all the holes or just angle in some decent sheet metal for a similar look to yours.

 

[hndaklr]

Ya that smoothed engine bay looks kill, you don't see it as much on sn cars
Compared to foxbodys .. Again I'm from surrey BC Canada don't see much different stuff up here haha but looks good I wanna do mine like that
