Ron Burgandy's 95 gts build

[RonBurgandy]

Hey everyone, fyi im not Will Farrel. The name is Willie. I love my 95 and i always have. The car belonged to my dad before he gave it to me.

As it sits:
17x9 cobras in the front
17x10.5 in the rear
3.55 gears
mac header back with gutted cats and dump outs over the rearend
pro 5.0 sts
Cobra stage 2 or 3 clutch (cant remember its been a while)
ebach lowering springs
k&n air filter
Royal purple oil
Amsoil trans and diff fluid.

and being a gts it came standard with no power options, cruise, fog lights, or leather seats
also has custom rear seat delete


Future plans:
i have a 91gt motor that i plan to put a 331 in
gt40 heads (ported, polished, gasket matched)
gt40 intake (ported, polished, gasket matched to heads)
70mm tb
headers
full 3in exhaust
Cai
cam
Walboro 255 fuel pump.

With the cam i dont want to go big, i want it to sound like it has an exhaust on it but not alot under the hood. Sleeper status.

im open to ideas and opinions so please feel free to offer yours.

more pics? would be nice to see the "custome rear delete" i would get some headlights if it was my car

 

[RonBurgandy]

i plan to get some smoked cobra's and the chin spoiler but i wanna get the motor done first. im going to clean these up some. i do need new sides. the weather strip at the top is coming off. and ill get some more pics.

SPRAYED IT OFF TO GET THE POLLEN OFF. CAR IS VIBRANT RED. LOOKS KINDA PINK-ISH DUE TO FADING AND CLEAR COAT COMING OFF. THE RED FADES SOOO BAD.

THE INTERIOR NEEDS TO BE WIPED DOWN (SO MUCH POLLEN) MY AC LINE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND I RIDE WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN.

HERE IS THE SEAT DELETE. IT WAS AROUND $30 TO DO. A SHEET OF 1/8th INCH PANEL BOARD SOME 3M GLUE AND HEADLINER MATERIAL. OH AND FLAT TOP INTERIOR CLIPS TO KEEP IT IN PLACE. the holes where from an amp and subs i used to have in it but i took them out a while back. i need to recover it to cover the holes. Weighs under a pound all together and looks clean.

I spy a 4 eye....

 

[RonBurgandy]

yup its an 86 4speed with a carb'd 2.3. a few years ago i was driving then it just died and wouldnt start. and its sat since. Its my dad's he also has an 88 with a 2.3 turbo swap from a turbo coupe (was mine but i hurt the bottom end and he traded me the 95 for it) , a merkur xr4ti, and a 94 gt auto (mildly built 302).

He traded me the 95 gt for the 88 2.3t car and is currently rebuilding it to hold up to 600hp if not more. giant turbo, possibly meth injection.

there is no point in 3" exhuast on that combo. car looks decent

 

[RonBurgandy]

the 3in is just because i want it. and depending on how much power i can make out of that set up i may run a small supercharger.

 

[Musturd]

Yea I wouldn't run 3" exhaust you'll lose a bunch of torque

 

[RonBurgandy]

Ight well the exhaust is just something foe the latter part i wanna keep my mac for now. It is last on my performance list anyway. But i will look more into the pros and cons when i get there. If there is no point in going with the 3 inch then i will stay with my mac 2 1/2 header back i have now. Saving money for other goodies.

Sweet car man.

 

[RonBurgandy]

thanks.

 

[RonBurgandy]

got gt40 stuff together

next top is the machine shop for porting, polishing, and gasket matching. the heads will have new ss valves, roller rockers, and new valve springs etc.

any thoughts on what valve springs to go with?

 

[RonBurgandy]

finally got around to ordering a new odo gear. mine has been out for about two years.

 

[miss2slocoupe]

nice build but silly this is a rio red mustang not vibrant red... mine is vibrant red and its like a orangey redish but to make sure check the door jam and look for es to make sure

 

[RonBurgandy]

in the vin? i never really knew how to tell the diff. thank you soo much

 

[miss2slocoupe]

in the vin? i never really knew how to tell the diff. thank you soo much

in the door jam. Yeah sometimes its really hard to tell. too bad it isnt a vibrant red car, those are rare as shit! only 1600 made and with yours being a gts i bet that makes it even more harder to find.

but there were three reds.

laser red

rio red

and vibrant red

 

[RonBurgandy]

learned that my car is a rio red (1/777 gts cars made) car thanks to miss2slocoupe. can anyone tell me more about how to read this and what all the numbers and such break down to?

 

[miss2slocoupe]

here you go, hope this helps
