Well I know i dont post here much anymore but I thought you guys might like to see the t top as its coming along, it was sorta rusty so it needed alot more body work than i thought. But its all fixed up, has 92 efi 5.0 in it an SVO rear end and Cobra brakes up front. As you can see in the scanned pics it was painted and now I need to drag it home and put it back together. its been very expensive but if you want to play you have to pay (or do it yourself).

it will be getting a full black interior 1992 and 03 anniversary kewbra wheels



thanks for looking

I was wondering when you were going to post up an update on this.
do you still have the purple wheels on your coupe?

As am I. Car looks amazing thus far and I LOVE the color. Keep us updated, that is, unless you are just shrink wrapping more parts

Don't feel bad, I have a 86 coupe that I converted to a V8 car, I was wide open at first but the car has since been put on the back burner. I have been over 2 years trying to get it painted,
