Default Project 1992 Coupe is Prowling the streets

She's on the road. Put new tail light covers, new windshield cowl and JLT Ram Air on tonight as well as sheet metal valve covers. Strange back ordered their adj. front struts so I have to wait to install my tubular k-member, coil overs and long tubes.

I also got my 3" ARP wheel studs pressed on my new forged axles. I will wait to install them until I pick up the rear end girdle this weekend. She feels very strong from what I can tell....just blows the street tires off. Will keep all you 5.0 guys posted on the progress.

It's dark out side and the car is FILTHY. Gonna drive it to work tomorrow, give it a little clean up and will snap some pics. I also got some new smoked headlights, corners and center pieces. Since I am a newbie to 5.0's and Fox bodies....Do ya take the headlight out first so you can reach the others? And is it the 2 11mm nuts, cause if it is....DAMN, they are a BIATCH to get to...LOL

My silver one is an '01. I am kinda afraid cause I think with the suspension done and sticky tires, it might give the silver bucket a run for it's money. I ran it right after the motor was broken in and it ran 13.20@114mph with a like a 2.4 or so 60'.

Take out the corners and insides first and the h/l will come out easier. Other wise it's a fight. yeah, 2 11mm/7/16" nuts for the side lights and 3 I think on the buckets.
