Title: Off to Paint

You got to love tax returns. Sunday me and a good friend from NBS performance stripped the bird and hung the new doors. Monday I dropped it of for a coat of Dark Shadow Gray metallic.

I also got the block back from the machine shop last week. I got a smoking deal on a set of stainless hot side single turbo pipes. 200.00 off or craigslist. I'm doing a basic rebuild but with good fasteners and rings and a T70 turbo. it should run pretty good. Ill post some pics when i get it back from paint on friday.X

DSG is the best Ford color of all time!  It will look awesome.

I actually miss it when my Sport was 8 different colors.LOL. Post up some pics when it's painted. We love that stuff. After looking at your car, I miss my Cobra R wheels sometimes.

At one time there were a bunch of us with Cobra R's.  Mine have only been gone for a week and I already miss them sometimes, lol.  Got to make changes every once in awhile to keep things interesting though!

DSg looks great on these cars. So do Cobra R's. They are played out on most things but these cars still rock them quite well. These, and Rangers.

I was going to buy the 92 Saleen sc wheels from OE wheels but i got these 17x10's with new goodyears for 600.00. I love the way they look so for 600.00 it was a no brainer.
