As title says, looking for a Roush Stage 3 front bumper like on the pic, the one on my Roush is broken beyond repair.
Bumper needs to be in good condition, not worried about paint but should have no tears, broken tabs or other unrepairable issues. Must be willing to ship/drop off to Ocean, NJ...
Looking for black oem trunk interior panels in good condition for my Cobra.
Previous owner built a strange stereo box that I want to get rid off.
my trunk:
what I'm looking for:
as title says, I'm looking for a complete trunklid from the new S650, Gen 7 Mustang. Anyone know where I could find one?
Appreciate the help, unfortunately it is not available from Ford in Europe yet.
I'm in Europe, 50 state legal doesn't count.
And 300hp is plenty to go well above 200kph on the German Autobahn.
I didn't want to go through the hassle of building another car after my 03 and my 17, this is why the Cobra and the Foxbodies stay moderately modded.
2018 brought the need for more power for the Rolling50 races. So as soon as we could get our hands on a Gen3 intake manifold early May we installed that along with the matching Gen3 JLT CAI. Ended up at 497 crank horsepower on our Superflow dyno.
Now the car pulled all the way to redline...
2017
Car got a custom wrap and attended a major car show called Tuningworld Bodensee and also raced at various Rolling50 events. Also took another lap around the Nordschleife, track still scares me though.
The car was stripped of almost all decals, sonic blue is still a beautiful color.
Had TrueForged build me a custom coolant reservoir, turned out awesome!
Additionally I installed a Racebronco 50/50 hood with carbon fiber top and a Terminator trunk with spoiler.
Out with the old N/A setup
the install of the new engine was a breeze, the coyote fits like it was built for this car.
Return-style fuel system installed in the stock Terminator tank I already had.
mid 2016 - while browsing through ebay I found a brand new Gen2 Coyote engine with automatic transmission and many other parts taken out of a brand new car to build a racecar. Parts were located in the middle of nowhere in the US and it was a challenge to get them picked up and shipped overseas...
the Torsen overheated, I had no cooling at the time.
The TrueTrack has held up for a long time, but I also added cooling ducts to keep it cooler a while back.
not wanting to supercharge the Cobra, first of all it would no longer be street legal and second I have a supercharged S550, that one is fast enough.
The Cobra is just a nice quick cruiser, 300hp is enough for that.
A couple of weeks later - installed a bunch of items:
McLeod Street Pro clutch
McLeod steel flywheel
new clutchfork
new pivotstud
new pilot bearing
new throwout bearing
FP clutch quadrant
FP adjustable clutch cable
UPR firewall adjuster
Now the shifts feel smooth, the clutch engages nicely, no...
2015 - 2016
these two years were spent just enjoying the car whenever I could.
Only mods was a Cobra R wing with huge sideflaps, Cobra R front calipers, new Schroth Racing harnesses, Carbon Driven interior parts and a whole lot of Stack gauges.
It was also the last time I managed to pass Swiss...
2014
The year I changed my mind again.
I did love the supercharger setup but somehow a cool N/A setup was always somewhere in the back of my mind, just waiting to come out. It was what made me choose my nickname back a couple of years when I joined the forum world.
So I ordered "another" big...
2012 - 2013
Of course I couldn't just leave the car alone and constantly searched for new parts.
Scored an IRS setup that we installed everything Full Tilt Boogie Racing offers on it along with a Torsen T2R and 3.73 gears.
Also added the Agent47 rear quarter window ducts, no functionality yet...
2011
took a while to get it built that far but early 2011 she was finally ready to start up. And guess what, this stupid car cranked but didn't fire up. Wiring getting hot. I was shocked but I was the only one.
The guys took 5 minutes to check the starter and declared it dead.
New starter...
2009 - 2010
The car was finally in a place where first, they had modded many Mustangs before and second, they understood what I wanted to build. They understood the craving for more power. They understood my craziness for this car and modding it.
With they I mean the shop owner. It just clicked...
At this point in 2008 I was hopeless for my car until a friend in the German Mustang community recommended a shop in Germany that had worked on Mustangs before.
I called them and asked if they could get my car back together and the answer was sure, just drop it off when you can. And so I did...
2008 - the year I tried to build an engine and install it myself in my driveway.
The assembly of the engine went surprisingly well, or at least so I thought.
Followed the various manuals step by step, everything made sense, the engine turned by hand.
Attached a Cobra T-56 6-speed transmission to...
Rest of 2006 and 2007 was spent wasting money, ordered a MMR shortblock, arrived with a piece broken off. In the meantime I had the car towed back to my house in Switzerland, still no engine.
Because I didn't trust any engine builders at this point I figured what the heck, can't be that hard to...
