Traded my 94 for this 94. It was in pretty bad shape when I got it but I have worked my detailing magic on the interior and exterior so far. Car came with the White 17" Cobra R's I had for sale. Too much White for me so I had to change it up. Traded them off for the 18" Saleens that are on it now. Still need to get the engine bay done but Im still working on some stuff so that can wait. Car has a Vortech S-Trim with all the supporting mods, built AODE, small cam, and more little stuff. Running a base tune right now but Im going to have her tuned soon. Ill post new pics as things get done here and there.

Thanks guys!

Yeah I wasnt feeling it at first but its growin on me. I got some cash in the deal also. Hoping to get it tuned around late January early February. Hopefully by then I have the engine bay detailed and lookin good. Definitely not as clean as my last one but it will be when Im finished.

I see lots of possibilities under the hood. Just let me know if you need anything done. BTW good luck with it, you are off to a good start, like the Saleens much better.

Thanks!

Oh I could go nuts with powdercoating on this thing. It needs it in a bad way. Think thatll wait for a while though. I just want to get it cleaned up then tuned and go from there. Hell the way I go through cars I may not have this thing come spring time.lol

I still have some cleaning to do and have to get the broken bolt out of the driver side strut tower for the strut bar then bolt the master cylinder on the booster and bolt up the cast/camber plates, but its finished!

Also finally installed my seats! Dont mind the horrible pics, Ill get some better ones when I get the Styling Bar installed.

Now to just find some gray or black rear seats for this thing. :confused:

Also might be trading the Saleens off for some Silver FR500's with the 10.5's on the back.

Thanks! The pics do the color in the engine bay no justice. It has a lot of metal flake in it and looks badass when the sun hits it.

Wow that is a big difference. Now I can't wait to tear into my '94 vert this weekend. Did you do the powder coating yourself or take it somewhere?

chris91

Not powder, Duplicolor High Temp paint with about 5 coats of clear over it. Turned out really good but I dont plan on running this intake manifold or throttle body for too long so I figured why not.

I picked them up from a buddy of mine for cheap. I had to redye them and they turned out looking damn near brand new afterwards. They normally go for like 4-450 a pair brand new.

looks good, i've always liked white mustangs with white wheels, especially saleens

but those look pretty good too

chris91

Yes I repainted the entire bay.

It had the white Cobra R's on it when I got it, WAY too much white for me. That and white wheels are a pita to keep clean.

Finally got the wheels on and cleaned her up. Just need to throw a oil pan gasket on it and its ready to be tuned. Still need to add the styling bar and find a top cylinder though. I was putting the new top motor in and while bleeding the system it blew the seal and dumped atf fluid all over under the rear seat. NOT FUN!

Also added the BBK Strut Tower Bar and Throttle Body.

Yes, hopefully I get this oil pan gasket done this weekend and if Im lucky have it tuned by the end of the month maybe? Dunno, have to call Craig after I get it done and see how the schedule is first.
