knowing vinnie, they'll be about 4 days out. he's not here to impress us, just to brag ;)

Man,that really hurt.LOL.

The car is REALLY dirty.No time for cleaning lately (tomorrow morning...CLEAN BIRD).I need to add a few pounds of air to each tire,but other than that,I love them.I'll have a full side view,3/4 view and rear view of the Sport for everyone tomorrow.









and the busted header panel.The hole is new because the body shop guy wanted a piece to make sure the color was right.No problem....The panel should be ready in a day or two.He's painting tomorrow.SWEEEEET !!!

The wheels look GREAT! What happened to the header panel? Ouch!

Do you have pictures posted of the interior somewhere? I was just curious.

I take it that is the Legend Lime exterior color from the Mustang. Looks great!

When I first saw those wheels in the link, I didn't care much for 'em..but they look good on your car. Kudos man :D

Yep,still have the old drum brakes.I may eventually add a disc rear,but for now,the car stops great,no issues,so I figured it could wait.One day,I'll find a super cheap TC around here ,I'll buy the car and do the swap.No hurry.

The header panel got hit in the parking lot.It SHOULD be fixed by Thursday.The new one is supposedly being painted at some point today.

I don't really have any new interior shots.I'll grab a few after I do the cleaning.I'll include the push to start panel as well.

Kitz.....What makes you think I'm selling these?LOL.I really like these wheels.Totally different look than the chrome Cobra r wheels I had,and I haven't seen any cars around here with these wheels.There are a few with the wheels like I had a couple of weeks ago,but,they are all Stangs.I think I may go Stang hunting today.LOL.This town wreaks of Mustangs.......everywhere.

Those wheels are pimp on your Bird! 1000% better choice than the Cobra Rs, especially with your paint scheme. Those drums hurt my eyes though. :p Thinking about painting my centers that color or something similar this winter.

Thanks a lot guys.As far as the drums hurting your eyes,most people are only seeing the back end of the Sport.LOL.

They actually look good,they are just filthy.I'll fix all that once the new header panel comes home.Man,the Sport will look great.......in my own opinion.LOL.All I want now are replacement seats in gray or raven.I keep finding raven seats,but they are too blue.Not working for a green car.LOL.
