Wow! That is a heavy modified car. Seemless quarter panels and all.Your taillights reminded me of something my father told me. He said that back in the day kids use to put 3 sets of taillights on the back of the mustangs and set them up in sequential lighting. You just took it to the next level. I noticed the SS gas and brake lines, Im doing the same for mine. Did you paint your engine bay red too?

I plan on a 347 stroker motor from the place I work, here is the website if you look at the custom engines you will see a weber setup thats the setup I'm going with but with a few upgrades.

Sweet. I have been planning on painting the engine bay of this car the same color as the body since before I got it. I already have Por-15ed the bottom of the car Sterling Silver and it looks great.

If you plan on upping the horse power at all, also count on putting some bigger tires and rims back there. Those stock pizza cutters won't do the job.

Oh I will eventually up the tires, but one miracle at a time please. Affording this car has been a hassle already. Plus, I do have a set of Cragers from aVette that might fit. Though I really don't plan on high test racing this car. My K-code Mustang (my baby) has stock rims with a good set of tires and she does just fine.
