It looks good with the glass in the roof too.

The first thing I'd do is check for leaks or fuel smell, cause you certainly don't want to have a fire after just getting it back. Is your FPG a mechanical one? Maybe pull the fuse for the fuel pump so it does not come on and see if the sound in front is still present and that will tell you if...

It looks SO much better!

hmmm, are you sure you have the right sized rear rotors?

I love how you attached the cowl! But seriously, just glad you got it back and it's painted!

For sure... it's been moving forward big time with a ton of stuff done. The engine bay got smoothed (pics later) and crash bar is tubular as well as Rad support being the new tubular one. Lots to come but on the bodywork side all the pics just look the same and if you're not there in person...

So Kevin is still working away on the body and primer work, but It's getting close to being done with that part. Here's a few pics just to update the thread... once it's all in the same color and panel gaps are set we should have a pic of it all in primer together. Before and after on the...

My car is all about a "swap"... hence the name Frankenstang. It's quite literally a mix of everything from 79-04 just taking the best from each option. And just FYI, the 4.6 Teksid block and crank are good to like 1500ish HP. :)

I personally use and prefer Maximum Motorsports for the suspension parts, and if you're looking for a good "handling bible" I'd start at the link below. They have tons of good information on their site. https://www.maximummotorsports.com/Getting-Started-C723.aspx

Short answer... yes it can be. More realistic answer though, it will be TOUGH to get it out fully but if you find a good PDR guy and tell him you just want it 85% then I think it will be a cake fix.

It's stuff like this that makes the Coyote swap seem more reasonably priced.

I agree with the above statement, classic case of getting what you pay for. If you have access to a press you'll need to use it to put the bends in it or else you'll have to go through the floor with the install.

I got the total experience in my back yard... pretty wild man. And you are right it got colder and in a hurry too. I even got to see either a satellite or the ISS (not sure which) pass between me and the moon during the totality of it with my naked eyes, pretty awesome!

That will all buff out no problem, get yourself a nice DA polisher, pads, and the appropriate gear and it will be better than showroom new.

Well, how did you like the eclipse? I was in the path and able to see the total eclipse in my back yard and man... that was awesome.

I do like it better in the sunlight...

I sent him a text, we shall see.

Yep, not a problem to add later. I think it's overkill anyway for the most part, but I can see how it might help on a vert. On a track car you're better off with a cage anyway.

As far as suspension or chassis, I'd go with either Stifflers or Maximum Motorsports (and personally have both for my car). My SFC's are the MM full length powdercoated units and they are excellent with great install instructions. I've ordered thousands of dollars in parts from www.lmr.com and...

I agree, they look better on the fox.
