Looks great. Those wheels are a great choice

Looks sweet. Glad to see that you are still at it.

I always like these cars, guy in high school had one with a set of flows on it. those windows are so dark they look like they were painted black,

This has to be the heaviest master cylinder ever now, to make sure it never goes back in by tearing out the rest of the brake system and converting to a standard vacuum assisted brake system.

Cool build, looks like its coming along nicely. Kind of makes me want to look for a mark vii instead of another mustang for a project car. After checking CL, when did these cars become worth so much money? They are ranging between $6000-18000 dollars.

Nice ones have been up in price for the past 5 years I think. When looking for my last one, I saw a handful of mint (show room new condition) low mileage cars in the 20-25k range. If I had to guess for the reasoning, I think a lot of people missed these once they sold the one they bought new in combination with the Fox Mustang being so expensive people are looking at other Fox platform cars and the fact that they seem to be almost extinct. I cant remember the last one I saw on the road or really, the last one I saw in a junk yard for that matter.

Very very bad ass build. I keep trying to get my buddy to come off of his Mark VII so me and my brother can have a project going on. Poor guy put her out to pasture a week ago since he bought a LS1 car.

I am hoping it sits like this when its all said and done.

Doesn't look like too much room in the rear wheel opening for that tire.

I didn't spend too much time making it realistic in Photoshop. If it sits with the "tread" just inside of the fender lip Ill be happy.

Got the brakes finished up.

 

[StockNotch]

I guess, it was time for new rear brakes.

Why Team Z? Because they are unbeatable.

One shock bolt does not want to leave its home so, its soaking in some Deep Creep for a while. I can't wait to see the new ride height.

Got the rear springs in today. Once I pull the rack off the other K, clean it up and put it in to the car, the car will be ready to head into the chassis shop.

Looking Good!:thumbsup:

Well, its ready to go to the chassis shop. Depending on how the car sits with the rear control arms that are being made for it, I may go back to the old springs to lower it.

So, this one time I tried to put a 100lb 5ft long hood on a car by myself...

Damn, that really sucks. Are you planning on fixing the hood or replacing it?

 

[StockNotch]

I have to get another one, that one is not savable.

There's a mark VII being parted out on CL.

The one at 8mile and John R?

I may have a friend go grab that hood for me.
