Not a huge update but slowly picking away at refinishing parts. Painted front calipers: Which pretty much wraps up the front of the car, next will be moving onto the rear brake parts. And then putting everything on the car, assuming the snow even starts to melt anytime soon...

Made some progress this weekend on the front brakes and spindles. I have collected all of the parts I need besides rear brake calipers. I got a rough set of calipers from the junk yard but after some research they are not easily rebuild-able so I am still on the hunt for those. Spindle/Hub...

Thanks guys, I know I know a little condensed. Sure wish it had only taken a day to build! Starting to warm up here so should be able to start wrenching hopefully soon!

That brings the build up to date so far. Still tracking down all of my 5 lug parts and hope to get started on that once the snow melts and I can actually move the car! Hope you enjoy the build, and let me know what you think!

Well spring is approaching, so onto the next project! Currently piecing together parts for my five lug swap. Caved and bought hardened forged axles but trying to source as much as I can from the junk yard, to be refinished of course. Brakes off a 2004 Mustang GT, twin piston made by PBR. Axles

Christmas was good! Got my wheels delivered last week and could not be happier, tbey are in even better condition than I thought. CNC'ed goodness, officially now on the hunt for 5 lug swap parts so I can put these on for spring. Here are some pics: Also got this for christmas from the...

Just a quick bump. Last mod before tucking it away for winter was installing the radiator overflow cannister, still have one more for my oil catch can but that will have to wait until next year. However it looks almost identical to the overflow and will be mounted right beside it, easy to...

Fell a little behind on the updates but the car is safetied and I have been driving it whenever the weather is nice. Have the tune dialed in very well and car runs better than it has in probably 3 years. Currently tuned at about 7psi and car feels very strong, I know the cold road isnt helpful...

Been a little slow on updates but have been making some really good progress lately. Spent about an hour trying to get it to fire but only got it sputtering and ran out of time, another hour or so getting the initial timing dialed in and should make some noise! Front Accessories going on...

Another quick update, things are moving slowly as I am having to mock up and fab a few things to get things fitting the way I want them to. Biggest snag so far is fitting the intercooler in behind the stock bumper. The GT front bumper is open along the bottom and leaves a lot of room for the...

Next I did a much needing cleaning of the garage and moved onto dropping in the engine and transmission. Took a little longer than usual but managed to get it in with out as much of a nick so the extra time payed off. This is as it sits right now, also wired up and installed my guages but will...

Been a while since I had a chance to do an update but still have been making progress, got a lot done over the long weekend so here is some pics. Few pictures of the underside, clean clean clean. Old Car Ready to be rolled out. Just after finishing bleeding the brake system, suspension and...

And also got the first load of new parts yesterday. Still waiting on my new starter and alternator but have most everything else. Currently I have moved all of my front suspension components into the coupe, and removed the rear diff from the coupe to make room for my diff from my GT...

Another small update, still comming along nicely and progressing fairly quickly with pulling parts and cleaning them. Running out of room for parts in the garage! Intake all cleaned up Shiny new rad :love2: Trans cleaned up Bout halfway through cleaning up the top end And a missing rear...

Well not much of an update, cleaning is slow going for the most part but getting there slowly. Turbo and cold piping before: After:

Got the engine and trans out last night. Pulled them together and everything went super smooth. :) Will be hopefully spending a large part of friday doing a whole bunch of cleaning and might start digging into removing the suspension as well. Gettting closer to be able to pull the new car in...

Got a few hours in on the weekend and actually made some pretty good progress. Got the car in the air and removed the hood, and continued on to remove the entire turbo kit, front drive accessories, wide band, upper intake and a host of other small things. After the first bit of work all I know...

And this morning! (Well about a year ago now but I am copying this from another forum.)
