I'm just getting started with mine, decent running and looking vehicle (needs paint)..........found a few interior parts that needed to be replaced. Installed a CAI (eBay one for cheap), cleaned up the throttle body while it was off, installed a Summit Racing cat back exhaust with Turbo mufflers. Looking at getting a rear end (probably a 8.8) with 3.L73 or 4.L10 gears. Found one in a 94' Explorer but I need to verify width and gears (good price $75 if I pull it). Then I will need a tuner to change shift points and adjust for the new gearing. I'm kind of partial to the Diablo Sport 7101. It seems to have good reviews and does what I will need. Just like having another motorcycle, the modding never stops...........:)

I have not completed a lot of mods on my SN95 but here is what I have done. I added a strut tower brace for greater handling. I have added fog lights to the car from a '98 mustang and they went in easily since the car was pre wired at the factory. I just had to add a switch and a relay under the hood. I bought 17" Bullit style wheels off of a 2005. I have 235 50 17's on the rear and 225 50 17's on the front. This is a convertible and it looks pretty good with the updated wheels. I am glad I did the fog light addition. This car is winter stored and has never been out in the winter since I have owned it. I enjoy reading what some of you have done with your cars.

If you bought wheels off of a 2005 then they have the wrong offset. You will need to get spacers, otherwise they will be tucked into the wheel wells quite a bit. Glad you're having fun with it!

Interior Updates - November 2012 - Up to date I have installed several of the custom fiberglassed and airbrushed panels for ShowStang. In additional we swapped out for some HID headlights as well. Included here is how the interior was gutted for a new black carpet. Still in teh process of getting the final pieces in; including the dash cover. Hope you enjoy!
I love the build I’m eventually wanting to hit these numbers with my 95 3.8 auto because no one builds 3.8s and I wanna keep my 95 v6 because the whole car is sentimental so if you don’t mind me asking what kinda budget would the drivetrain and electronics run on a build like this today?
