Awesome man!

Love looking at your ride. Is that Laser Red that was used on Mustangs for many years from 1994-up? My 1994 Mustang was Laser Red and I still love that color.

Very cool! Hey, are those rear coilovers for a Mustang, or are they made for the 'Bird?

they are the new UPR coil overs for less then half the other guys and they are made just a few miles from my house. I had to weld the shock mounts like 3" higher to make the mustang shocks fit but well worth it, now I have a tow spot when I trailer the car to the track win win lol.
