Well, traded my vert that some of you might have seen in my projects thread, along with another coupe I had, a red 90. I had sold all the blower, engine, 6spd, etc, off my vert and put a mild combo with a T5 back in it. Here's what I got:

It's a beast, got a 10 point moly cage in it too. kirkey seats, aerospace race brakes, on and on. Sweet ride.

thanks man! Can't wait to dig in and get it finished, been sitting around my shop for years, and finally made the owner an offer to take it off his hands and finish it up. he just ran out of funds about two years ago. Now at least he's got stangs to play with.

wow, what's with the negatives? lol, Yeah, the alternator caught my eye too, he ran out of money on the project years ago and it's been in my shop ever since, so I worked out a win win deal for him and for me, so I could get the thing done and out of my shop. I'm going to put a PA racing alternator on it eventually. Just comprising a list of all it needs first.

I know dude, I know, lol. He just couldn't swing a new one, and we wanted to get everything mocked up. It is a sweet ride, wish I had done this deal when I first got home so I could have played with it a bit before I left. But oh well, got something to look forward too now.

Looks like great fun! Nice find. To hell with the alternator...but you gotta replace the butchered GT bumper cover with a Cobra piece. :D

I hope you mean 160lb injectors and not 60lb. :lol:
NXcoupe
06-20-2010, 01:50 AM
Nah, to start with it's gonna have 60's. Did you notice the size of the pulley on the F1?? It's not gonna need larger than 60's till a smaller pulley is in place, then I will go to something larger, depending on what fuel, hp, etc, I choose. Not my first rodeo.
