Well it's spring according to the calendar...stupid groundhog.Well, was going to pull it out of the garage, and start tinkering on the alignment and take it for a drive....
Then it snowed overnight. So we wait

I did get out for a quick burst today !
Roads still look like the surface of the moon but heavy rain Friday a.m. washed the ice melt away.
I got it out. Adjusted my coil over suspension, set my camber and working on toe.
Went around the block and realized I never torqued the lug nuts! So my ride was cut short.
So quick ride. Really impressed at how well the coil overs ride. Truely does ride like a different car!

What tools do you use to do your alignment?I got it out. Adjusted my coil over suspension, set my camber and working on toe.

And the Ariens gets a quick cameo in pic 2! Gotta love those machines!
This tool here for Caster and Camber, although I'm pretty much running full back Caster on the mm C/C plates.

For toe, I made a stick that I use to measure fromt and rear of tire.
I had to tracking dead straight at 80mph last summer
Love it this winter, although we got less snow that usual. But it's just such a beast!
Changed the oil on it today and got it ready for summer storage

I’m glad I’ll never have to invest in one of those. How much do those cost anyways?Love it this winter, although we got less snow that usual. But it's just such a beast!

There are cheaper ones but I wanted the bigger engine

Worth every penny
I went with this one:

But as 5L5 says, they are worth every penny. Would have bought one a few years earlier had I known how nice they were!

Been looking thru this thread. All of your cars are very nice. I've avoided posting any picture of my car with the paint so far gone. Oh well. I washed all the pollen off yesterday and at least it's clean now. Just about all the clear coat is gone but it's a solid car. I've had it so long it feels like a family member.

So you have a Cobra and a 1988 GT? Or is it a GT dressed as a cobra? Either way, I like it.
Oh...No it's one in the same. I bought a left over Cobra back then and took every remaining piece off of it. There was no Cervini kit at the time so all of it is Ford part numbered parts. I took it completely apart and color changed it to Vibrant Red. Thanks.
