Yea its definately been a fun project so far. I love cleanin everything up with the sandblaster and paintin everything up real nice. Although I'm NEVER doing a body swap again. There are so many little parts that need to be swapped. Its a little overwhelming but I think I'll be able to get it all squared away when the time comes.

And yes, those are flofits. When I went to go look at the car he told me it had some kind of aftermarket seats so I figured it had some cheap APC "racing" seats in it. When i got there an saw it had these I flipped out. The interior came out of a 90 GT (stupid console delete).

Yea I had bought all really clean bolt on body parts that were rust free. I needed a clean body, it would have been a bear trying to fix all the rust and I was sick of a hardtop. NOTHING on the car was original anymore lol.

I got the wheels a real long time ago from a place in california that I think went out of business. You can get the better looking machined finish ones from discounttires.com I think. I like my new Stern replicas way better now.

i test fitted the svo sail panel in the first pic it isn't bolted on just yet. i have the car all the way down to a shell and surface rust here and there.it sure would be easier if i had access to a rotisserie.

that would be nice to be even mentioned for something like that ,i have a mint 87 mustang gt body that has excellent rubber on the quarter windows but i really love the look of the svo sail panels.i think i may try to put it back together as well someday but the wife would kill me.chances are i am just going to part it out since it is just a roller anyway.

Part it out to fund the new project. Thats what I did with the left over parts. I've basically bought the 88 for free now.
