I got my 01GT back from the body shop finally....Pics

[468LC]

8000 dollars later this is what I got. Repair of crash damage and installed side scoop deletes.

Any questions comments or other feel free to ask lol.

The helos in the pics above are my job for a living.

This is what I call my stripped down or LX version of the newer mustang lol.
No fake wing, no fake side scoops, and no fake hood scoop.

Beautiful car! Glad you have it back.

Love those meats in the rear!

Damn man that looks great. What shop did that? You work with dave (caucstang)? I think thats where he works, atleast.

I think my car has been rebuilt more so than that. I think its been wrecked pretty good Nothing shows on carfax though

No he works with me lol, You got that backwards.

Thanks andy. KD autobody in downtown puyallup did the work.

He says you and him are pretty familiar with the 5.0 engine and do all the work yourselves on his. Do you have any experience with the 4.6? I'm starting to gather some parts so this winter I can rebuild mine.

99+ Ported PI heads
VT Stage 2 cams
Probably Comp Cams valve springs
Hardened retainers
new guides and seats
PI intake
Port upper plenum more
Flowtech Long tube headers with some kind of X pipe

Maybe with all that I'll be able to still see daves car when he floors it by me. I raced him on the freeway one time, within the blink of an eye, he was so far ahead of me. Both our cars smoke like russian subs lol. Mines getting so bad you can see it in the rear view mirror when its night time.

Dave's car is stout but that would be because I built it that way. Don't let him tell you different. Hehe, I can take him in my 89 though.

I have done some bolt on stuff to the mod motor but that is it. Never had a reason to go inside one. I don't think it is all that difficult though. I certianly would not let it intimidate me.

 

[468LC]

Oh and that kind of combo sounds pretty stout. I would guess you could get around 270 RWHP with that N/A. What are your goals?

 

[stock50LX]

I agree with the less-is-more interpretation of your car. Getting rid of all the faux parts creates a cleaner look that emphasises the natural lines of the car. Who needs an '05 when your car looks that good? Now, you need to take it to the track again. I hope you can make it to the track next season. Why don't you make it a tentative goal to race for the Ford Drag Team in the car club competition. It makes things a little more interesting.

looks good man!!!!

just curious how wide are the back tires???????

 

[MTMMAN]

Hey what was that jet in the back ground of the one picture?
Is is some Eastern European trainer?

 

[468LC]

Thanks John, much appreciated. Trust me I will be back out next year. Things are on the up and up.



Sick, those are 315 35 17s on a 10.5" wide wheel.

 

[468LC]

MTM I am pretty sure that is called an Alpha Jet. French/German trainer. Lot's of fairly rich dudes buy those as toys.

Do a search for Alpha jet and all kinds of crap will come up.

 

[MTMMAN]

That was my first pick. I just knew alot of the rich guys bought surplus east bloc jets. I didn't know you could buy an Alpha jet. I've seen them over seas, but never here in the US.

 

[468LC]

Hell, Paul Allen has a T38 a few buildings down from ours. Puts an alpha jet to shame IMO.
