Here are some pics of before, after I got the old cowl off, then after I welded the new cowl on.

Thanks stiffclutch, I've had about 6 different stangs, and this one has got the most compliments. I like the stance of this one the best. thanks again

I paid $1500 for it, I didn't like the notch with the GT kit. The only reason I boughtit was that I knew some people that wanted to buy some of the parts on the car, including the GT kit. So all of the parts I sold off the car paid for itself.

You can do it with the motor in the car. Just disconnect all of the stuff on that panel. You'r going to have to tuck the brake lines under the lip so you don't hit it. Everything else will be out of the way. Synyster
