On december 31 I got backed into by a chevy 1500 or something in taco bell. His insurance Co. was Founders insurance and they suck balls. Took them untill march to send the money. And the shop I have to go to took a month to get the parts from 50resto.com. I called a few times and all the parts were in stock. But finally everything is in and Im dropping it off today, Here's some before shots.

Now just to decide wether or not to put the cobra emblems on because they come with the kit from 50resto.

I also ran my best time ever the other day at bron dragway in Illinois. My time and mods ar in my sig. My belt blew when powershifting into 3rd which got me a few more mph but the 20mph headwind brought me to my normal mph. And I forgot to lower the dang tire pressure again. But the track was hooking great so the thought never crossed my mind.

Ill post up the after pics with the hood, bumper, headlights and foglights, front emblem, and cobra brakes. The side cobra emblems wont be going on. Those will stay gt as well as the rear bumper. If I do ever find a good deal on a cobra rear bumper, then Im putting the side ones on and stangparts is getting a call because Im getting the 95 cobra guage cluster. All :hail2:the Fobra.

Sorry for the long post, I havent made a progress thread in a long time.
 
Ive only been to 3 different tracks in our area. Byron is the best my far. GLD suck because traction is a serious problem there. and RT 66 which wasn't half bad. I cant reallygive a good opinioin on that track because it was my first time ever at a track and I was terrible. Runing like 15.6's/15.8's
