Hey Nice vert's. I know i'm a little late but here's mine. Mods KB 2200 Blower, AJE K-Member, 2300k cobra brake kit, Cervini's body kit and hood, Pedestal spoiler, 19 in symbolics wheels, custom 3in roll bar, Corbeau TRS seats, Mac Long tubes and Magnaflow catback exhaust, C&L 80mm MAF, 75mm TB, QA1 coilovers in front and BBK springs in rear with Steeda aluminum lower control arms and the list goes on and on. I plan on a repaint begining of next year and also a complete stereo and interior redo.

I saw that someone had a vert with 94 up seats. I know the front seats just bolt in. Can the same be done to the rear seats or is there custom work to make it fit?

Also i'm in a process of a wheel change my old set up is the chrome 17 in wheels and my new set up will be the 19's after i send off 2 of them to be repaired and all 4 of them either chromed or powdercoated. Let me know what you think.

I still cant figure out how to post those giant pics like everyone else so here are some links. I just started a thread for convertibles of all years in the sound forum so please check that out stangers with verts.

Somehow I doubt he ever has anyone "back there", looking at that roll bar.

50GT if you'd put you stock taillights back it would look 123129310293012e123 times better

Thanks for the compliment and also thanks for posting the pics for me. The wheels are 19 x 8 symbolic XR-15. They have a 6 inch backspace and the tires are 235/35ZR19 and no they dont rub at all. I do plan on going with 245/35ZR19 on my next tire change and they will fit with no problems. If the wheels were 19 x 9 with a 6 in backspacing then they might rub, but everything depends on backspacing and with this set up i still have more than a 1/2 inch clearance before they start to rub on the quad shock. The rear fender was already rolled from when i had the 17 x 8.5 chrome Elite Avalons on the car. Tork Imagines are a cheaper version of this wheel if you were thinking of getting some. Post some pics of your convertible stang. That red paint and wheel is a tease show us the whole deal.

I do ride people back there all the time with no problems and for your information the roll bar is curved with the interior so i still have full use of my back seat. Now if i tried to fit 2 adults over 200 lbs back there then i might have fitment problems, but still no rubbing problems.

I really don't like the stock gt or lx look taillight look. I wanted something different and more modern. I am going to change the tails, but not because i don't like the look. It's because the passenger tail builds condensation and i can't have that. I don't try to please everyone when i customize my ride, just myself and i know you thought you were slick putting in a pic of your LX hatch and this is supposed to be a convertible only thread.

All i have to say is nice clean ride. Those chrome wheels really set that color off. Is that the factory paint or a repaint? Is it wet sanded?

Here is some pics showing clearance.

If any of you verts have a aftermarket system in your vert please visit the sound thread (Convertibles only car audio).

I weighed mine the other day. It was 3300 with a half tank of gas. The car is bone stock as far as I can tell. Still has the AC, smog pump, charcoal cannister, etc.

Best time was 10.90 @128 full weight with a S-trim (w/ 8 rib belt) and E303 cam. The car is now lighter, has a YSi-trim (w/ cog setup), .600+ lift blower cam and Aderson PMS. I have not run the car yet nor made full dyno pulls but a quick blip on the dyno made 550 rwhp (mustang dyno) at 5,200 with 6lbs of boost and a 10.5:1 A/F. Here is a short idle clip http://media.putfile.com/Stang-idle

what roll bar is that? and how tall are you? do you have much clearance around your head?

I wouldnt mind putting in a roll bar in mine, since the stiffest support is the windshield. But I am 6'6" and do not want to brain myself in an accident.


also, does it allow for rear seat use?
