I like the low profile tires.Tall tires always remind me of truck tires.I only have one page of things left to do for the Sport.....which is about 30 things.I think the next real job is the differential swap.After that,who knows.The diff. takes priority though.

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.


Ah ok. Now you just need to paint the front brake calipers and rotor (not the part where the pads touch ;)).

Have you thought about just getting your seats recovered? That's the easiest way to get the seat color you want.

I've thought about having them covered,but thought I'd try replacements first.I can get new seat covers through the Mustang resto places.I'm patient,one way or the other,it'll all come together.

I like em Vin! They look great, much better than the run of the mill Cobra R's you see on EVERYTHING. I like the Cobra R's but I don't like em at the same time because everyone has a set.

Those look nice.  I have seen those wheels advertised, but never thought they would look good on our cars.  I was wrong they look quite good.

they do look good on there.  I still have no idea why they broke the colors on those wheels where they did.  One of the main reasons I went with chrome on mine instead

Side pics and all coming soon.I really want to get the new header panel on first.Hopefully this evening or tomorrow.It'll be nice to get rid of the giant hole in the current header panel and get the Sport back to feeling better.

Why yes....yes it is pink.I always did like the way pink and green fit perfectly together.LOL.

I got the header panel on a few minutes ago.Pics in the morning.It's dark out there now.I'll have pics probably around 8:00 in the morning.I'll be up around 6,and waxing at 7,then pics.Man,the Sport looks GOOOOOOOOOOD !!! No bird emblem on the header panel,it is a "made in Taiwan" header panel.Still new though.I have to admit,it went on easier than the factory piece.Either way,better than a hole in the front end.I have another header that Jery sent me,and it will be receiving heavy mods.I'll have more on that later.It'll be the only one of it's kind,and very functional.Again.the Sport looks GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!
