    Project Notchblack: Black Interior Progress Thread w/ Pics

    I finished the package tray and reinstalled it a few minutes ago. See pics below. I figure this will also be the time I get flamed for leaving all my sound deadening material in the car, BUT in my defense, I gutted my last 5.0, and between the exhaust and the highway noise, I would rather...

    Project Notchblack: Black Interior Progress Thread w/ Pics

    The floor carpet is getting replaced next week. I'm painting the package tray carpet and headliner, and so far so good. The Georgia Mustang's Unlimited is five minutes from my house, so if I need to just buy a few new parts, it's no biggie. Also, for the high wear areas, if the painted...

    Project Notchblack: Black Interior Progress Thread w/ Pics

    Dang dudes, not the response I was looking for...oh well. Seriously, how on earth can you want this color?...UGH. Come down to Georgia and you can pick apart red interiors all day long. This one is going away. And for those complaining, there are thousands of 4 banger cars sitting around...

    Project Notchblack: Black Interior Progress Thread w/ Pics

    As for the rest of the interior, the quarter panels, headliner, and package tray, 3rd brake light assembly, and rear seat belts have been removed. I've already put the first coat on the package tray carpet and it looks pretty good. I tested the fabric paint on one of the rear seat belt...

    Project Notchblack: Black Interior Progress Thread w/ Pics

    Ok. A few weeks ago I posted about the little 4 banger notch I picked up for $750. I bought it from a 74 year old woman, and it is in fantastic condition except for some minor body damage. Most importantly, the interior is immaculate, and the only signs of wear are on the driver side seat...

    I got a ticket/advice?

    In that case I'd probably have taken you to jail , and any words coming out of your mouth would have fallen on very deaf ears. If you had to work traffic accidents where someone's 7 year-old kid is all jacked up and getting lifeflighted off the highway because some turd was driving too...

    I got a ticket/advice?

    Since I'm (one of) Stangnet's resident 5.0L five-ohs, I'd suggest you just pay it. You were obviously speeding or else he wouldn't have bothered stopping you, and if you take it before a judge, he might just make it worse as in...pay the fine + driving school and community service. Also, going...

    The Crown Vic from HELL!

    lol...i'm sure that crown vic guy thinks his is a beauty too.... haha. Just kidding buddy. Everyone's got different taste. I'm a fan of the stock or only slightly modified body style (maybe a hood or some rims)....on a sleeper motor...but that's just me... Ghettofied Daytona kits just...

    The Crown Vic from HELL!

    Cool Kill Switch Idea I Learned from a Cop Video

    lol @7up. right now, I have less than $1000 in a 4 banger. I'm not too worried. She's getting a 351swap in a few weeks, and when I start adding multiple Gs to this car, I figure it would be fun to make it, well, fun. Plus it'll be great to tell my friends they can drive it...if they...

    Cool Kill Switch Idea I Learned from a Cop Video

    Electrical stuff is my demon. Confuses the heck out of me, so I'm really not sure how that part works. All I know is that they had it rigged so that it would trigger an electric motor to open a hidden compartment, so I know that there's a way. That fake deck of cards thing is cool too...

    Cool Kill Switch Idea I Learned from a Cop Video

    As a patrol deputy, I see all kinds of "safety" videos showing how criminals like to hide their stuff. I received a video the other day that I thought would make for an super secretive kill switch. I'm not sure how it all tied together, but here's what I saw: Basically in the video, they...

    Click here for a laugh...

    That has me crackin' up. Unfortunately, as 5-0 popo, I have to deal with stupid stuff like this every day. In Georgia, that would get a report for terroristic threats, but not enough for an arrest. You can go to jail for harassing emails, but unfortunately not for illiteracy... This guy's...

    wish i had the money

    I'd say a well kept 108K car, but something happened with that driver front fender. My "new" notch was driven by a 74 year old woman and it still had the wiper motor cover at 135K. Over all doesn't look horrible, but not a $6500 car in my neck of the woods. *Maybe* $5K if the body checks out...

    old but fun to watch

    Just throwing my .02 in here since I am a 5-0. Any car in a chase is going to get beat to death. Sorry. As long as the chase is legitimate, the car can get wrecked from this side of Monday to the next. As for jumping the ditch...the car is the LAST thing on your mind when you're trying to...

    Tranny problem-aod

    I figured out that I blew up my AOD the first time, when I pulled up and stopped on a hill and immediately started rolling backward (as if in neutral). A trip to the tranny shop said, "That'll be $800 please." A spacer failed, and the tranny was toast. Second time it just exploded while I was...

    I Bought a Virgin. And Took Pics for Everyone!

    It only looks that way in the picture. It's almost maroon when you're in the car. Would look good with some Black Cherry pearl type paint job.

    I Bought a Virgin. And Took Pics for Everyone!

    In another life I did advertising (specifically direct mail) which focuses heavily on attracting people with headlines. Glad to know I caught your eye.

    I Bought a Virgin. And Took Pics for Everyone!

    Eh, she's only a little worn on the right side. Grandma was run off the road into a gaurdrail. Bodyman friend is gonna do all the pre-paint body work for about $600, including reshaping the fender and plugging all the holes in the decklid. I don't think anything on this car was ever...
