They’re in the trunk. 3 of the wheels are in great shape, one needs refinishing to match the others. Know anyone?

The dark grey inserts work perfectly with that metallic red. I would keep these wheels for good if it were my car.

I never paid much attention to those wheels before but now they growing on me.

Of course...hard to find wheel. Took me almost a year to find a clean set of ‘98 cobra wheels and those are more common that the anniversary wheels

I just remembered that back in the day, around 1999 or so, Mustangworld.com (remember that forum) used to sell decal kits like bumper inserts and sold the decals to turn a set of 99-04 painted 5-spokes into a anniversary wheel wannabe.


EDIT: Oh they still do

You’re going to want tires, just FYI.

And speaking of that. I think tire sizing and spacing (SN axles versus fox length) are going to play a big role in the final turn out.

Massive thanks to @02 281 GT and @Boosted92LX for hooking me up with some much needed parts.

Your eyes aren’t deceiving you either, there’s still no clutch in the stack. But, it’s coming soon.
