Sounds like you are loving the hell out of this new toy. Its kind of neat to see an MN12 being built up on here.

Awesome work so far, dude. I like seeing another MN12 around here; I always feel like an outcast without a Fox.

I was lucky that my '96 came from the factory with the T/L 3.27 rear. Even after 100k miles it still rolls 'em both.

Now you need to paint your headlights and corners. It looks wicked on a black '96-'97. PM me if you need instructions.

hahah yep, I finally put it too use Chris...

As for the lights, that does look good, that is how I did my 88 Tbird.  But, I have a better idea.....  my body man is tinting them monday when the car goes in.  he will be using clearcoat tinted with a little black pearl...  should look nice...

My rental this week is a freaking PT Cruiser...  YEA!  not...

Update:
My buddy sent me a few pics of the work they have done today:




The steel they used to fabricate the rocker section is a bit thicker then the factory stuff, and it was coated with POR15 in back, so rust should never be an issue there again.  While it was there I had them remove the emblem and weld up the holes:


I also had my buddy tint my headlights for me...  LOVE IT!!!:



Should have it back tomorrow.....
