Great project and nice progress. I just used wire ties to hold up my harnesses in the fender wells.

yep I ended up using wire ties too ... looks pretty good for my first time doing something like that .

better quality pics now

Dads tools he is missing ! :rlaugh:

I hope the rest of the car turns out this nice. My brother did a great job sandblasting and painting everything .

I think its funny how they made the 4-eye version of that bumper with the angular 99-04 Saleen look; but the 87-93 version has the rounded 94-98 design to it WTF?

Looks like a good project car anyway.

some clear pics of the wiring and wheel clearance .... doors and fenders are at the body shop being edged out . new top , lights and top boot awaiting install . new carpet is on the way

Thanks to everybody who gave me the wire hiding tips :SNSign:

the front valence looks pretty good. crappy in the bodykit ad. Not sure about the little side scoops on it though. Nice project, keep up the good work!

Those valve cover stud kits do really help, I have the UPR one and paid something like 20 bucks for it. Much easier to not chip up the valve covers since they hold themselves on.

i love the front end can't wait to see the final result

hsean · Jun 6, 2009

do they make one for the capris?

my2foxes · Jun 7, 2009

More sanding, more work = more pics .... I have not seen one of these bumpers for a capri . We decided to fill in the marker light holes and move them and the turn signals

So how ya gonna fix that bow in the center of the grill?

Mustang5L5 · Jun 7, 2009

Not to mention the hood overhang.

holy bumper sag!!! is the header panel attached yet?

DocG · Jun 8, 2009

Either way, great job man! And I think its awesome as to "why" you're doing it too.

About the only thing I'd want to give my dad for all he's done is a wedgie.

Thanks for the kind words. As for the bumper , it is not perfect by any means and that is as good as we could get it to fit without cutting out the center section of the bumper and redoing that part of the mold ourselves. So long story short we are going to live with it. anyways here are some more pics and some color !!

had to test fit the wheels 255/40/17 on all 4 corners

all pics are without clear coat as somebody ( me ) bought the wrong thinner lol clear is going on today and new top and glass tonite! dad gets the car on friday
