Hey everyone. It's been a while since i have been on here and thought i would update the progress on my stang. Havent gotten as far as i would have liked to by now but you all know how work and other functions take some of that spare time out of your life. I have managed to get the bottom of the car undercoated and the rearend from the wrecked 91' painted and swapped out. I have decided to go with some basic KYB shocks and struts for now. I'm going to go ahead and stick with stock springs too. I am soon to be starting body work, although i still need a pass. side fender. I happened to have a friend whos stang was hit twice in 30 min. The body was wrecked except for the pass. side door, which i also needed. Got a heck of a deal on that. It's still a toss up on the color. Originally i wanted the factory crystal blue, but i am also leaning toward orange, a few other blue colors or a two-tone paint job. I also would like some of your feelings on painting/dying the interior panels. My dad restored a 78 F-250 about 14 years ago and sprayed his dash and door panels. It has no signs of fading, cracking or chipping. I want to go with a darker grey or take it all to black. Guess thats all for now. Will try to make it to a get together or something here in the near future. I have had to work the last few.

Looks good brother. I was thinking the black interior with a grabber orange body......long as no other stangbangerz have that color going on. Do you know what the trick is for fitting newer mustang back seats into a fox body??? Would like to swap to a newer black leather if possible.

Should be pretty easy to put the seats in. Modify the old brackets or drill new hole and mod the new seat brackets.

There are a few orange ones on here in different shades. Grabber orange I dont think I have seen though. As long as you like it do it.

thanks for the advice fellas. it's still in the air with the paint.....depends on the price and what will be better for a first timer tryin out the spray gun. as with the seats i will have to test my mad skills and see if i can get it to work. pops always told me, "where there is a will, there is a way!". thanks again.
