nice one, just from the way youve worded the post is this a partnership build?

Partnership build? I'm married and my wife has some say so in what money gets spent. Thats about the extent of any partnerships that I get into.

You know what you want to spend money on but your wife shows you what she will let you spend money on....

I just checked out every post in this thread and I have to say that I am REALLY impressed by those of you who take a car from nothing (regardless of how "clean" and straight it might be), and turn it into something REALLY badass and really nice to look at...and do nearly all of it by yourself in your garage...TWICE. (first the orange 86 and now this project) Hats off to you, man! Seriously. I envy your determination, drive, and the effort you put into your hobby. I myself can't commit to buy and put together (the way I want) an aero Fox to save my life. :shake:

BUUUUUUT, F the bowtie powerplant! :lol:

Ford K6 midnight blue

Edit: this is MK Twilight Blue from an 88 Turbo Coupe

While I have always found 87-93 GT's favorable, I would LOVE to own and drive the hell out of that coupe!!!!

Thanks Al! While my determination is the same, sadly my time and pocket books isnt! But I will continue to piece the car together and take my time so it turns out nice. Don't worry though, the LS motor is probably a temp deal as the car WILL have a mod motor with a turbo one day.

If I was actually home more then 4 days a month it would probably be a complete roller by now

Did you at least get to come home for the holidays (Christmas and New years)?

Why not an LS motor with a turbo?

 

[orangejuiced86]

Who knows Car is paused right now until I redo my garage to fulfill my other hobby.

Because it's a Ford shell, so a mod motor + turbo = WIN.

 

[motorcitymustang]

La Z Boy and a Kegorator goin' out there?

 

[motorcitymustang]

I say start w/ the better base motor. No brainer there.

 

[orangejuiced86]

naww, the ls motor will be in it for sure. I'm surious how fast my budget ls motor will go. I say 9.50's

naww, the ls motor will be in it for sure. I'm surious how fast my no budget ls motor will go. I say 9.50's

No progress and no time.... will be rolling this weekend on all 4's. Might just roll it out of my garage and wait for someone to steal it.

What a joke of an idea to try and build another car...
