Just wanted some opinions from you guys....I went from Dark Forest Green to Titanium Metallic. The car has just come out of the paint shop. I still need to redo my interior, get my suspension goodies on, build the rear, get a new top and get my wheels on (got tires mounted today.. Damn if Discount Tire didn't send me 3 Boyd Coddington Smoothie II's and ONE Boyd Coddington Junk Yard Dog!! :eek4: Replacement is on the way) Iv'e got most of these parts, except the interior stuff. I even sprung on a Chrome 200a alt and a Chrome Meziere water pump! I'm hoping she'll dyno at 320'ish rwhp.

So, after 11 years of ownership with this car, and 3 years of parts gathering, a few busted knuckles, she is almost there. I do have to pull the motor out again to fix a headgasket issue I am going to try to recruit a few people that can help me get this done in a day (tubular K member going in at the same time...)

Here is just a few pics of progress... More to come.

Nice To Do list ...better than any Honey Do ...

I think some SMOKE headlights would look good on the metallic color.
Along with the Boyds ..... looking forward to next update.

If you dont mind me asking, what did it cost you for the paint job. I have a 98 GT that has some scratches and a few dents. I have thought about going DSG with it like my old 2004.

Streetstang03- Yep, gonna get a Stayfast top (like the Cobra top..Actual Canvas), Cobra Misano L seats, and all black interior.

BluBullet- The hood is functional. There is a panel that removes from underneath. The hood came from Nichepi.com

Tally- Those are Boyd Smoothie II's. 18x9 front, 18x10 in the rear. My Michilen 285/35/18's actually look too thin for the wheel.
