    Judging by other cars we have restored this one should be in paint by next summer, maybe sooner. We're hoping the customer will paint the car the car the original gold color. Would LOVE to do a two tone with it but we'll see.

    83 GT vert Chrome Pony R pics!

    The chrome is a little much but they look pretty good. He wanted a stock look but not stock. He also wanted the big brakes so that wouldn't allow the use of 15 inch wheels. It's a customers car and he came to us wanting the Chrome Pony R's.

    83 GT vert Chrome Pony R pics!

    Yea, they are flush with the edge of the quarters, if they start to rub we are going to roll the quarter lip over. The suspension is pretty tight so we'll see how that goes. The backspacing is a little shallow but overall were happy with the results.

We installed the M-2300-K Cobra R brake kit, brand new 8.8 with 3.73s. H&R springs, Tokico Shocks and struts, boxed control arms, full...
