After years and years, my 90 Notchback is finally getting close. Problem is that I painted the engine bay years ago and hate it now. So I'll be pulling the motor. I need some recommendations for a color. Want a simple metallic or non metallic. No pearls. Please post your favorite color or what...
Not really a "truck" but thought I'd share my oldest sons first ride. 97 XJ with a fresh lift that took like 4 days and alot of busted knuckles..lol. Thought it would be a great first car being slow and all. Problem is that there were mysterious tracks all over the local ball fields after a big...
Guess I'm a traditionalist. R block, 347 Vortech YSI. Built aod. Full restoration soon to be completed minus paint to the body after like 7 years! All brand new parts.
Dwight! Good to hear from you buddy! I'm hoping you and the family are well! Yeah I know Bill and talked to him through FB a couple of years ago. He wasn't real interested at the time cause he was super busy but I may try him again. I think he works on newer stuff now. Thanks for the...
Yeah. Motor is the only thing there. I'm going to be picking it up I think here shortly. I can't even get excited about working on the thing because I now I need help finishing and if it was up to him, I'd be dead before it got done.
*Edit. I DO have the funds to finish. That's part of the...
Hey guys I haven't been on these boards for years and not sure who is still around or who is on here but I'm hoping someone can help. Does anyone know a shop or talented mechanic that may be willing to help finish a project? I have been restoring a fox body and I have an assembled built...
Looking to get my wife a new laptop but have no idea what's good these days. She basically prints coupons, Web searches, prints and my kids sometimes do school projects. Nothing to extensive. Hope someone can lead me in the right direction
Been working on this sucker off and on for like 3 years. Finally I've painted the bottom, installed the built rear and suspension. Now I'm moving to the front and painting the engine bay after smoothing it a bit. After I'll install the front tubular kmember, coil over and the remaining front...
I am going to go ahead with white for my complete restoration project. Having the engine bay smoothed and painted next week. Wanted suggestions on which white to go with maybe from someone who has painted or has a white car. Was going to go Performance which has a slight yellow tint which may...
Was going to go darker for paint but now looking to go bold with my Foxbody Notchback build. It's a complete Resto with high horsepower only driven on weekends. What do you guys think of using either Comp Orange, which I had on my 04 or Grabber Blue? Kinda want to stand out at car shows. Here...
I was pretty excited to get my fully built rear end back in my project car with new tubular control arms and qa1 coil overs. Everything went smooth accept for getting the springs on the shocks. That took about 3 hours lol. Need lug nuts now to put my wheels on. Moving to the front next. Car is a...
So I posted about 2 years ago that I had bought a project car/restoration. It's a 90 notch 5.0. Going through the whole thing. Well life happens and it's been slow going. Got a wife and kids.. Enough said. So I'm finally making some progress, we'll a little bit. I've stripped the whole car...
Hey does anyone have a trusted place that can mount a tire to rim in the Silver Spring area that won't mess up the rim? I have some brand new Motorsport cobra r wheels still in the plastic and don't want to scratch them up. Getting my rear back soon for a Foxbody project I'm doing. Gotta get...
Guys I'm looking to possibly paint my Mustang in a silver. But I want a good bright Silver that stands out. If you have an aftermarket paint job, a factory Silver that is nice, or just know of a cool Silver, I'd appreciate you posting a pic and possibly a color code. Thanks!
Sorry crappie pics but the before and after is dramatic. Waiting on the rebuilt rear and suspension to get done before I move to the front suspension and paint the engine bay. It's a full Resto. Building a stroked 347 blown motor with all the bells and whistles. New everything on this car if...
