Thanks... and yeah, the back will be going in shortly along with some other stuff:

8.8 Rear End
SN95 Axles
Trick Flow Differential Cover
Cobra Rear Calipers
Brembo Rear Rotors (11.65")
'03 Cobra Springs (Front)
'04 Cobra Bilstein Struts
Bullitt Springs (Rear)
Bilstein HD Shocks
Maximum Motorsports SFC's

Should be a fun, albeit SLOW, little car

Heres some of my not so perfect stang. I have a total of about $1200 into it (including the $1000 I paid for the car) It still needs alot of work, but its getting there.

Couple days after I bought it. It was a crank no start, but a quick ecm fusible link replacment and she fired right up... then wouldnt go into gear.



interior before:


Exterior hasnt changed much besides some lx tails, resprayed turbines and a good cleaning.

Here it is as of lately:



Cleaner interior + tach


While rebuilding the top end, I discovered whoever pulled the tranny last decided that 3 bolts were enough to hold it to the motor. Fixed that and what do you know, it drives fine now.

After top end rebuild:

Who cares what your car looks like if it runs 11's?

It use to. Now it has alminum heads, a crane cam, a better flowing intake, larger injectors, and about 6 more psi.

I just need a tune.

Here ya go guys...she might look nice from the picture but not perfect at all.







Notice my 4x4 look. Also, no fog lights. Rust on my Hatch. Front Bumper is a diff. shade of white, and i believe its a lil crooked.

As of right now i have no hood and a dented cowl panel. Moral: Never forget to put your hood pins on. But its ok. Gives me a reason to get it painted.
