Never know. I will have pics of the custom fox radiator/core support cover tomorrow.

95steedamustang · Feb 25, 2015

Fox core support radiator cover fabbed up. Got some fine tuning and tweaking to do but this will be the basic design. I will start a group buy when I have this one completly done. But this should give those interested a good idea of what it will look like in place.

Will it have holes that mount hood stops and things like that? @95steedamustang

Yeah..I added holes for the hood bumpers and radiator hold downs today. But anything can be drilled for each specific car.

How about colors or powder coat? Will it be done? Or will it be a raw material? Anyway put me on the list for one! @95steedamustang

I have a pretty good list of ones to do, so I will probably just focus on getting them done in metal first.

no , right?! it made me already inquire to Racedeck. their prices, depending on what scheme you want to do and size of the garage, arent too bad at all!

First round of mach 1 parts are painted and done. More to come.

95BlueStallion · Feb 28, 2015

Did you buy the Mach as a rebuild, or just that dissatisfied with the factory paint?

The Mach 1 has 4,320 miles and has never even seen rain, but it's just a matter of fixing factory paint and issues.

Thanks...I'll post up all that stuff once I get one finalized. Just wanted to get the initial look up. I'm testing these on stock and aftermarket hoods to make sure they clear both first.

95steedamustang · Mar 3, 2015

More progress on the Mach 1.
Some epoxy primer sanded down

Followed by some SPI 2K primer

Little engine bay work and powdercoating

And wet sand on the freshly painted door.

looking good Kevin. hows the spring on the lever hold up to powercoating?

95steedamustang · Mar 4, 2015

Thanks, The big springs on seats tracks and hood latches hold up just fine and are not effected, smaller springs may need to be removed.

I have never liked the 94-98 design I owned 2 and to say I hate them would be an understatement. I actually put them on par with the Mustang 2. That said one does not need to like the car to appreciate the time, quality and craftsman ship that goes into a build. You have done an outstanding job, I enjoyed catching up on this thread. This may very well be the nicest SN I've seen.

95steedamustang · Mar 12, 2015

^^^
Thanks...Guess the 94-8s hold a special place cause they were new during my high school years and remind me of that time. But Im just as much a foxbody guy. More progress on the Mach 1.
Round 2 of clear.

Bumper now ready to spray

A little smoke for the cobra fog lights

The Mach 1 phase continues.
