Just wanted to be able to document my build as soon as I get home in about a month or so...
So here goes.
The Owner: Kevin Miracle (some of you may know me from other Mustang specific forums, by the same user name as it is here), US Army Cavalry Scout, originally from Clarksville, Tennessee, currently deployed to Iraq in support of OIF, and I am one HELL of a car NUT. Anything and all aspects about cars... I LOVE. It runs in my blood, it guides my life, and alot of my money and free time go into it. My current residence is in Iraq, but I will be returning to Colorado after the deployment, and then eventually back to Savannah, TN with my wife of a year and a half, Emily.
The Ride: A Satin
Silver 2005 Ford Mustang GT Coupe, 5 speed, with alot of small bolt-ons. The one thing I am proud of most with this car, other than the fact that it's my first REAL performance car... is that everything from being able to soon install the Kenne Bell, cleaning the windows, detailing, oil changes, suspension work, and EVERYTHING else was done by me. And that is something I take pride in.

Some of the pics I put up were taken before some of the mods went on the car, just so you guys know that... .
And it begins... this is the first pic of my car... the NIGHT I picked her up, before even signing the paperwork:
Still looks pretty much the same, for a while it will stay like that as well. I am going with a TOTAL sleeper theme here.
The goodies (some of the ones not installed yet anyways)... And if you look down ladies and gentlemen, you will see the exhibit featuring the newly delivered Kickassimus Importus Maximus.
Known to eat small children, and even larger animals, this creature will leave black marks all over the public roads, if let loose. Should it be let loose just once out in the wild, you will never be able to contain it again.

Speed of Sound 2 gauge A-Pillar pod:
CDC Rear decklid blackout:
Magnaflow Magnapack exhaust:
Tokico D Spec adjustable shocks:
Spec 2+ and Billet Steel flywheel:

So um... wow... I got a LOT of work to do when I get home.
What I want to do eventually:
~Livernois Motorsports Forged 298ci shortblock
~Smaller blower pulley, for more boost
~Heads and head work... new valves, springs, locks and retainers. Ported and polished.
~Comp Camshafts.
~Wheels and tires, Bogarts, Shelby American Racing Razors, or Shelby CS40/CS69's.
