thanks andy again good luck with your project

So what progress have you made on your mustang ? There have been no updates In months.

 

[hsean1]

i guess i can update the thread

i bought this its a 96 gt that was sprayed with rubberized coating

i sanded and wirewheeled it

por 15

i still have to change out the seals and put in a new cover
for it.

convertible doors i picked up this one need some work

a close up

i started peeling back metal

i cut out the rusted metal and sandblasted and did some welding and spackling with fiberglass and then a very light coat of filler

more parts i took to sandblast front ford motorsport sway bar and rear steeda swaybar and my cobra upper intake.

epoxy primered

red paint

arent T-top doors are the same as coupe/hatch doors, but have the window frame cut off? I think there is a rubber piece that covers this cut portion from the factory.

5.0 magazine went into detail on this in a recent issue because they couldnt find any t-top doors for their project.

Why yes...Yes they are!

 

[hsean1]

yes they are but the glass is different for t-tops ,convertibles and hardtops and the window regulators for t-tops and convertibles are also different

he did sandblast that as well i forgot to snap some pics of that but you can see the finished end of it.i really thought of doing that[newer dash] but i really love the foxbody dash and i came up with this idea. this is a shaker 500 style radio but i am going to put a navigation unit in there instead.you get the idea

the faceplate is from a newer mustang and i trimmed it to fit

I love this set up!

 

[hsean1]

thanks man it maybe that set up if i can't get the nav unit to work.

 

[dudek]

looks awesome man!
keep up the work
and don't forget to keep us updated

 

[hsean1]

i added another cup for the mrs.in the center console this gives it a more updated look as well since the new ones have two cups.the chrome rings will be snapped in place when its reupholstered.

 

[The Man]

i wonder if anybody has ever tried to utilize a floor mounted parking brake for a FOX, eliminating the need for that opening in the center console. It would also enable you to widen the console and make it all one even surface.

 

[hsean1]

that wouldn't be a bad idea i plan on a leather cover for the park brake to match the shift boot.

 

[outlawdan]

looks good

 

[hsean1]

thanks man slow going and this weather is not cooperating i want to paint the suspension pieces and start assembly. how's yours coming along?

 

[hsean1]

update been awhile since i posted here

center console shifter and radio bezel in stainless

started with a cardboard template

and then.....

suspension pieces

these i had to repaint and i made my own spring condensor and put these eibach springs in the struts are tokiko blues that i painted

i bought these from the village ford swap meet

got some mdf board and did alittle fiberglass work

the A-posts had a little rust so i fixed both sides and welded and smoothed the t-top brace on both sides with metal and fiberglass

the t-top trim will still go over the areas

i picked up the cervinis fiberglass hood and filled in the hood pins

the car is a roller now and i hope to have it running this summer

 

[1nine84GT]

This Is one hell of a project. I cant wait to see it done.
