  1. Those are nice brakes. I kind of cheated a bit when I used the magnums from the cornet kit. The wheel backs are solid and painted. You can't see the brakes anyway. Chassis is done and car is ready to be sent out minus engine. It is on the bench next. Someone pm me where to send it please. Pics to follow of what I did and how to assemble it.
  2. Can I get all of that?? Seriously!
  3. I have already put this chassis under an 83gt and and an 84 anny car
  4. My wife has an 11 f150 fx4, I have an 05 ram 3500 4x4 with a cummins. Fun stuff in the garage is a full stable of mustangs. Older ones are not restored yet but I have a few I drive a bit 65 fastback 66 gt fastback 66 convertible 84 Capri RS t top 85 Capri RS t top 85 Capri GS 5.0 5 speed ( the rare one) 97 svt cobra convertible. 07 Shelby gt500 convertible. Shelby 40th # 267 14 Shelby gt500 glass roof Now looking to upgrade wife's truck to same model but in new orange color for 14
  5. Oh yeah. The rear seat delete and fuel cell too
  6. Well, it would be a pretty big build to do it right. Front bumper, hood, rear spoiler, rims, exhaust, recaro seats, then there is the 4 valve 5.4 with its special intake and the t56. It's almost transkit territory. I would build one. I have had a ride in all 3 cobra R s. They are fun cars
  7. Another nice day here -40c with -50 windchill. Supposed to last another 3 days. Been similar to this for 7 weeks now
  8. I finally got into my LHS yesterday and ordered a few things. Will be here next week sometime. I got 2 new 70 cudas 2 new 69 gt500 convertibles 1 bob glidden t bird 1 new vette gasser 1 copo camaro 1 new foose camaro 1/12 1 Shelby gt500 1/12
  9. What year R do you want to build?
  10. I think I wanna do a top banana 440 car with steelies and caps
  11. I will be bringing a wide body 69 super bee and maybe one more
  12. We have been battling wind chills here between -35 to -50 for two weeks now. Supposed to be -38 c tonight without any windchill added in. I didn't even go outside. Today lol. Only about 90 more days till I can get the cars out
  13. I agree with the above. I mold in stuff all the time with superglue and sanding
  14. I saw a great gen 1 in Montana this past summer. Full gen 2 running gear swap. Along with the seats and wheels. It was a pretty nice sleeper
  15. You bet. I have to get some pics up but the suspension is set up. I narrowed the rear end a smidge, totally modified the front spindles and re arched the rear leafs. It all fits together like it's supposed to.
  16. Those wheels are gross. I have a couple old versions of this kit. Time to build another but I may have to look into some different wheels unless I build a stock one
  17. That looks really good! I know what you mean about finding 1:1 grille parts. Almost a deal breaker on my 68
  18. Could you not bash the Enzo with the FXX transkit that is out there ? Costly but do able
  19. Looks really good. Did you choose grey to be different ?
  20. Coming along nicely. What are your plans for the lower rockers?
  21. Nice project and nice cars. Around 96 I had a 68 383/4 speed S notchback. Should have kept it. It had been a drag car all it's life. 4 k miles on a perfect rust free body. Springs moved inboard so it had lots of tire under it. I got it as a roller and installed a decent 383/727 combo. Had 488 gears. Fun car.
  22. Buckets and lenses all the way. I have a pile of kits I just keep passing over due to the fact I know there is extra work in that dept. Lol
  23. How do you do the welds on the headers?
  24. I have not started it yet. I wanted to get the chassis set up then I will begin that. That's how I planned it in my wee mind anyway. Then it will be ready about the time it is needed
  25. Those look good. Most of the time on a mustang like this they come out there on turbo cars because the turbos are right there. This will work fine though
