Our new project 94 GT

[Mika]

I have three sons 14, 10, 5 and the two oldest and I decided to stop racing radio controled offroad and start a cruiser project. This is what we came up with, a 94 GT. Here it is from weeds to the new home.

 

[duff daddy]

sweet, what are you going to call the project, "weed mobile" "where the green Ferne grows" "grass stang" get it like grass stain.... :tard:

 

[Mika]

That's too funny because while cleaning out I found a little greenery all rolled up and really dried out. I don't know about you but I don't know any potheads that would loose a complete joint like that. So I did what every dad of a 14 year old son should do and took the opportunity to let him know that smoking pot was illegal and it's not ok for him to get high.

 

[Steven]

Good to see your doing a project with your sons. Same thing my dad did with me on my 92 GT I had. It's worth every penny and bead of sweat.

And then you took it in the bathroom and smoked it right? And the kids thought you were takin a horrible dump?

any other pics? underhood or interior? why and how long was it parked?

 

[Mika]

I'm beginning to wonder what the hell I was thinking. This car is a long way from my standards, and I don't know if I can afford to get her right. My son is defiantly enjoying working on her, so that I like.

She came with nothing under the hood, we have a V8 explorer that we hope to use everything from including the auto.

We're thinking of a GT bumper, she's not a cobra and we like the Gt

One front fender needs replacing.

Omg the interior is missing but the dash has no cracks.

stinky pile, who said that

OK shoot me. It's going to be a long road. I think we'll start paint and body what do ya'll think.

 

[redgtstang]

looks like alot of work man.. but it can be succeded with motivation id do it

 

[Mika]

Well we started the tear down of the donar vehicle.

 

[Steven]

Good man. Coming along slowly

 

[Addermk2]

the car looks to be in pretty good shape. Have you inspected the torque boxes and rear frame areas?

ALso, when it comes to a new front bumper, take a look at this lip from wings west

Someone converted your car to hydroboost for the brake setup... Notice the lack of a big vacuum booster behind the master cylinder.

i also just noticed that too! looks like a fun project!

 

[blue9550gt]

I'd go GT front bumper and send me the COBRA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Mika]

I'm not sure why the hydraboost conversion other than the previous owner may have had trouble with vacuum. I think he was setting the car up for a radical cam. He never got to finish it and had to sell. The person I got the car from only wanted the fats and shinnies and the cobra bumper. I'm not sure if I'll stay with the hydraboost setup or not, I haven't researched the differences. I have the power steering pump and mounting brackets from the donor explorer and I'm not sure if it will work. Any thoughts in this matter will be greatly appreciated.

As far as the front bumper I have a GT bumper and probably need to use it for now because the appearance is not the priority at the moment.

Thanks
Mika

Here's some progress;

I'm not sure why the previous owner cut out all this support unless this car had a huge speaker box.

This is what it should look like, well I'm sure the factory welding is prettier but mine will due.

Very molded used parts.

The interior has come a long way. I still need some front seats.

 

[Mika]

More things comming together;

We need a few more things before we assemble the engine.

Impulse purchase, I couldn't resist.

 

[MustangMoser]

Lol, what happened to using the exploder engine?

 

[sj9ers]

where did you get those valve covers?
