    2005 mustang nose on classic mustang - has it been done?

    Yeah, see, those old 14" rims just don't cut it anymore now, you really need something more modern. It just never ends.

    Of course anyone who's done a custom mod knows that you fall victim to the domino effect very quickly. You do something like this and you just have to add a custom side exhaust to complete the pro touring look.

    2005 mustang nose on classic mustang - has it been done?

    Yeah I did it as a quicke just for a look see with no finishing touches but no matter what angle I try the headlights and grill just don't work right, they come out flat looking like a Pinto or Mustang II and do nothing for the classic lines. Just the lower valance works much better though...

    In real life I agree, in photoshop anything can be made to fit though, just takes more patience.

    Has anyone installed Fiero seats in their car?

    88 is the pleated pattern design, he must be using an 84'-85' Fiero seat if he has speakers unless he is adding them. So Valley, did you go with a full pleat on the bottom of the 88' like mine or the standard half pleat? All vinyl or leather vinyl? Regular grains or the mixed stock Mustang...

    2005 mustang nose on classic mustang - has it been done?

    Here's my first crack it, I did with grill too, way harder than I thought though, the dimensions do not compare at all. I'll try another with just the lower valance.

    2005 mustang nose on classic mustang - has it been done?

    I'll look around for some pics and see if I can find something. The toughest part is finding both subjects at the same angles to graft them together.

    Looks like the Ring Brothers have some serious competition coming, that car is almost unrecognizable.

    Met the girl of my dreams today

    Eh, not so much. I am trying to remain open minded about it but it is not the movie I have been waiting for all these years to see. And of course now I will never get to see that movie wether this one is succesful or not. I totally understand why they went the direction they did but I expected...

    What do you guys think of my engine bay?

    Bryan, you talking about the Canton air cleaner lid like the one I went with? Aside form some fresh paint my biggest peve is like was said about not matching components. I hate seeing say a cobra cover with a ford racing lid, things like that, it looks thrown together. Also not a fan of the...

    Allow me to introduce.....HOSK8

    I agree with you on the whole Speed Racer thing, not the movie I've been waiting 30 years for at all but I can see why they chose the direction they went in and I am trying to remain open minded about it. I think Iron man will be the cartoon come to life movie to beat this year but I'm sure you...

    Met the girl of my dreams today

    Slightly off topic but not really, at the 69stang site we have a "MEMBERS ONLY" section where anything goes and one guy has been posting nudie pics of his wife with their mustangs, with her approval no less. Come to think of it, why I am I here right now instead. :spot:

    Anyone do driveways or had one done recently?

    New garage, you lucky bastard. I only have single and shares the space with tools. As soon as I get the new driveway in though I can finally put in a shed at least. Well, the work you have done on your home looks great so far, I went thru most of the pics.

    Anyone do driveways or had one done recently?

    I'll bet it was all the curbing that ran your price up. I know I can attribute some of the low price to the fact that he is doing three or four now on the same street at the same time, plus I am probably over stating the actual size of my driveway in my estimate. I also drove around and took a...

    Anyone do driveways or had one done recently?

    Thanks folks for the reply's all, sounds like a go. When he gave me the estimate he did mention that they only like to compact 2" at a time and that 3" was the finished depth so they make a couple passes I guess.

    Anyone do driveways or had one done recently?

    Ok, that's good news then, thanks. Usually when everyone says it's a good deal I get nervous for the opposite reason and am afraid I spend too little instead of too much and then barely get what I paid for and have to redo it too soon. My wife just sent me a pic of one of the neighbors driveways...
