Title: Some Car Pics after Mods
Post by: Ace on March 23, 2003, 08:55:56 AM: The war is grinding on my nerves and the recent news is very sad so I need a diversion. Lets talk cars. Here are some more pics of project Mustang. Pulleys go in this week and the following Wed. I head to the track.

Thank god the spring is here!:bounce:

The Shaker kit cost $795.00 plus painting the appliqué.

I love the new Cobra as well. I wish I had the bucks to buy one. To tell you the truth, I go nuts every time I find a scratch on this car, if I had a new Cobra my heart would not be able to take it.

I cut a hole in the hood. It took a lot of courage to see that jigsaw cut a hole in a perfectly good hood but it was worth it.

That is a concern. There are drain tubes all along the system. This system has been out for a while now and I have heard of no problems with water getting into the system. I am trying to think of a way to block the ram air on a rainy day for added assurance.

Thanks!

Post by: luckee on March 23, 2003, 10:08:07 PM: Rice is such a loose term nowadays and everyone wants to yell it at anything.

Originally..rice was stickers of products you didnt have installed. The appearance of being fast when its slow as shit. etc..etc..now rice is anything by anyones terms. :)
