umm well nope.

DriveThru · Apr 8, 2008

Mines not either
Still gotta sand n buff it all
Paint the trim
& put the interior back together

Really sucks with all this nice weather to see it sit in the garage in a million pieces.

grey5.0beast · Apr 8, 2008

Mines done now

I got to tune it and do some little things, but its good.

Ozz · Apr 8, 2008

As soon as I put it back onto my insurance, yea. For once I didn't touch it this winter. I will soon though. Nice weather projects only

svtpower · Apr 8, 2008

nope

Nope, mine's not ready either, it's currently in pieces in the garage.

I have all the stuff for it, I just need to get it all installed.

To do list:

1) install PA Performance 3G alt

2) install DCC fan controller and Taurus fan

3) install March U/D pulleys

4) install FMS 65mm TB

5) install subframe connectors

6) install new headliner

be glad yours isnt your daily driver. heres my things to do list

1)drive the crap out of it
2)watch it continue to rust away
3)fill oil and coolant levels once a month, maybe 2.

until i get money, its just gonna have to be a trooper. I dont really want to put the cougar on the backburner just for the mustangs sake, either. Only another 2 years til i graduate from college with my mechanical engineering degree, and then ill buy a 96 cobra to dd while i lay the fox up for a total teardown.

I have a better question.

Is your car ever ready for the summer? HAHA

We always will want to change something about our cars, and we will never have them ready. Whether it's wheels, tires, suspension, lights, interior, paint, etc...we will never settle.

My 91 notch I have been driving for 2 years still does not have a working speedometer, because I have to pull the trans to fix the gear inside. I also must swap the 2 rear LCA's because the STUPID sway bar mounts are offset. And it needs tires.

My 81 notch is under construction and the nice weather here has pulled me away from working on it. I have been driving my 91 notch, and I had two BBQ's on Sunday to attend.

I'm working on the 5-lug conversion for my brother's 83 Hatch so I haven't had much of a chance to do much on mine. Had time to put the new rad in with hoses and check it for leaks then park it out front. Keep your chin up WOODYY24 you'll enjoy it more once it's done!

FrankenStang · Apr 8, 2008

Both mine are.

5.0TailPipeHump · Apr 8, 2008

Yup just put in full synthetic !! See yea in afew days stangnet

SVT32VDOHC · Apr 8, 2008

I hear that. I prolly won't be on here much once summer comes.

LiquidGT · Apr 8, 2008

- Nope, a/c needs to be charged, I cant stand driving with the windows down.

- change thermo to a 180?

- Get rust fixed or watch it fall apart.

fivespeedsteed · Apr 8, 2008

shes always ready. alls i gotta do is get balljoints, and new tires and wheels for inspection.

bgjohnson · Apr 8, 2008

Jeeze you guys are freakin lame.

I still have to paint the rest of the body, cobra body kit and trim, 5 lug conversion, buy tuning system and new MAf and wide band, 5 lug wheels with tires, 31 spline axles and locker, buy and install new wiring harness, install QA-1 front struts, buy and install new rear shocks with anti-roll bar.

Am I gonna make it?!?
