  1. Not much accomplished on it this weekend besides getting the leather cleaned up by using leatherique. I'll be tackling the carpet next. And the energy suspension master bushing kit should be here this week.
  2. I have all the parts to build an AR but wanted to see what tools I should get to put it together, and maintain my rifles.

     

    I've seen the "kits" that are out there, just wasn't sure if they were good quality or had everything needed.

     

    Brian I have everything you would need. Your welcome to borrow what I have

  3. Meanwhile, this time next year here's what you actually built:

    You know it's gonna be true. :D

     

    Nope, I already have to many toys and not enough time to use them. I've taken my turbo car to the track once this year

  4. You read my mind on the wheel selections. <3

     

    Either will be improvements:

    - Factory-sized brakes? Go with the BBS-inspired 1st choice.

    - Definitely rock the 5-spoke, if you go bigger on the brakes. would white calipers be crazy? I just love the idea of keeping this thing superfresh with the white touches.

     

    I'm going to try to stuff 12-14 performance pack Brembos and 13" rotors behind them.

  5. Looks great, super clean!

     

    To get it very 'tight' do you need to do more than just suspension parts; do you have to do any frame modification, support given it's a fox body (flexy) vert (flexy)?

     

    I doubt I'll have to do much bracing, but depending what pops up at the right price some braces may be purchased. Doing all new poly bushing over the entire car should make an incredible difference in it self.

  6. I'm torn between trying to keep it very original, or doing a few customer touches I've always thought about in the last few years if I ever got another foxbody.

     

    The top has 2 small holes in it, honestly doesn't really need replaced, but I'll probably do it anyhow. Thinking of switching it over to a black top as the wife isn't super fond of the white top.

     

    The AC has been bypassed at it stopped working, but I plan on getting back in working order.

     

    Foxbody mustangs are getting hard to find in good shape, and the prices keep going up, so I look at this as an investment.

     

    Next purchase will be a SN95 4V Cobra, as I think those will sky rocket in price in the future.

  7. Hell yes! That is awesome :thumbup:

     

    Leaving it stock? Is it auto or manual?

     

    It won't stay stock, but keeping all stock parts. It will get every bushing replaced with energy suspension pieces, upgraded suspension all the way around, 5 lug conversion/rear disc brakes, and I'm going to try to stuff 11-14 mustang Brembos on the front. 18" wheels, a nice lowered stance, exhaust and maybe a cam just go the sound. The major tasks though will be pulling a lot of the stock parts off, sand blast, powder coat and reinstall. I'd love to keep it stock, but I want it to drive smoother/tighter than stock so it just feels better on the road. I'll replace every worn out part I can.

     

     

    I'd really like to swap a 99-04 cobra irs in it, but hard to find and people want to much money for them.

  8. New project for the winter. Got this for my wife for our anniversary, she is fond of foxbody mustangs, and convertibles as well. 92 Mustang LX 5.0 summer special, only 2150 made of these. These came with a unique interior, white and black combo. White leather seats with black piping. Car has only 1 tiny spot of rust on bottom of passenger door, and it's just starting to bubble the paint. Zero rust everywhere else, truly amazing. Car is 100% stock down to the mufflers. Body is in decent shape, has a few dings here and there, that I will remedy. Interior is also in decent shape, I will be trying to make this a super clean cruiser.

     

    Here are a few pics after I gave it a little love with the polisher, and wiped one of the seats down.

  9. Looking for some foxbody parts for my project. Tubular upper and lower control arms, suspension braces, camber plates, tubular control arms, exhaust, upper and lower intakes, cam, rocker arms, injectors/mass air meter combo, maybe other stuff.

     

     

    Also SN95 spindles

    11-14 Brembo calipers

    5 lug/disc rear conversion, hardware, calipers,

    Let me know what you have and price.
