in the pursuit of R.O.T.M

[svt slobra]

ok guys this is my first build thread i do believe,

i bought this car last summer with intentions to sell it and make a profit. i never had a chance to list it online and it just kinda grew on me. my new idea is to fix it up and see if it can become r.o.t.m material by fall or so. I would say this sn95 is a decent starting point because it has a very straight body with no rust and it has the 5.0 sitting under the hood.below i will give a complete and dead honest rundown of the car

1995 mustang gt
5.0 (runs like poo)
5 speed (grinds in second and pops out if ya dont talk kind words to it)
170k miles (yea shes been around)


POWERTRAIN.....
all stock internals
msd blaster 2 coil
bbk cai
k&n filter
a/c and smog delete
bbk shorty headers
king cobra clutch (still grabs like a purse snatcher)
5 speed manual( grinds ,pops out, whines like a kenne bell)
factory rear gears
o/r h pipe
catless
flowmaster 40s



WHEELS&SUSPENSION.........
kyb agx pros
eibach sportlines
j&m products cc plates
17 cobras wrapped in kuhmos


INTERIOR.......
haha well whats still there is pretty ugly


BODY......
cobra front bumper
not really sure what hood it is(03-04 termi & 2 inch cowl)
1 piece headlights
tinted newer tails



i have alot of plans for this car and figured i would start a thread about it.im also open to ideas, so if you guys wanna chime in feel free

Looks good! Lots of potential!

IMO: New rims, Take NOS stickers off of hood/get aftermarket hood, interior and engine dress up

Good luck! excited to see the progress!

thanks guys and yea im looking at getting the hood repainted cause the sticker is under the clear........i also want too get new wheels with a lip, trying to decide which too get. on the interior i plan on doing a full black leather and replace all the cluster and accent lights with led

 

[MustangChris]

[svt slobra]

update jan 13, 2013

ok so the car has been running like crap(sounds like it has a big cam at idle,missfires and falls on its face at wot and almost impossible starts in the morn. i have got a few parts for it and plan to install this morn. parts consist of new wires,plugs,iac,tps,maf,coolant temp,dist cap and rotor.i know it doesnt need all this and im sure its just in need of a tune up but i wanna make it run to the bast of its ability.i also got a good lead on some afr heads and a edelbrock intake, so i think now all i need is to piece together a stout shortblock.

 

[svt slobra]

its a saleen-style hood

that hood is alot diff than mine
