BIG REDS wanna be Nick Cage Build thread.

if you put a import motor in that car people will say nice car until they look under the hood than laugh their butss off as they walk away trust me :slight_smile: had a stang with full saleen kiting and a 6 cyl and it happened all the time. miss the car wish it had more go with its show.

Was it silver? If so, I am guilty.

I had to return something and I had a coupon for 15% off my total purchase so I took a ride over to mustangs unlimited in Connecticut today, to pick up some misc odds and ends. I also picked up brackets for the deluxe seatbacks I scored on ebay a couple weeks back. Hopefully they should come in the mail tomorrow.

I wasn’t happy with the brushed alum. inserts that came with my door panels I got a few months ago, so I have been on the look out for some better quality ones, I scored a NOS set to replace them.

I got one seat done, but I realized the bracket set only does 1 seat so I had to order another for the other side. So Monday ill do the other side. Thanks again to my girlfriend for polishing up the stainless trim with some mothers polish.

Like I said before, every piece of trim and shit you add… I never knew it was missing haha. Just makes it that much better. Strong work compadre.

yup, all of this “little” shit is what makes the difference. There is still SOOO much that has to be done too. Good thing I have all winter to do it.

Pics of girlfriend or ban

looking better and better every time I check the thread.

muhaha

Thing looks fantastic man. Im excited for the motor werk to start.

sadly I wont be building the motor I want until next year, for what I want is 5-8k and will prob be more. However i’m doing some bolt ons to this motor that will transfer over to my new motor when I swap them.

got the bracket kit for the other seat in the mail today, some of the pics are crappy, the lighting was kind of crappy.
