New from Mass. 347 T-Top Build

My name is Kevin, and I have been out of the Mustangs scene for a few years now. I have owned 3 Fox Bodys in previous years all of them were modified pretty heavily but with my new project im looking to take things to the next level. Not to long ago I picked up a SUPER clean 87' 5spd with T-Tops which has been my dream build for a long time now. There is not a spot of rust on this car. The car came with a 347 stroker motor and mild cam (dont know specs) Cold Air Intake, and a bunch of suspension mods (subframe connectors, sway bars, strut bar, springs, shocks, ect) 3:55 Cobra Rear. I recently have added a Trikflow Track Heat Upper and lower intake manifold, Acufab 75mm throttle body, Pro 5.0 shifter, recently replaced power window motors, power lock motors, window guides, door hinge pin kit ect.

Parts I have waiting to be installed are the following:

new Cervinis front bumper
new Cervinis side skirts
new Cervinis rear bumper
new Cervinis Spoiler w/ 3rd brake light
new Cervinis Hood w/hood pins and hood shocks
New headliner
All new gaskets and moldings for doors,windows, t tops, hatch, door handles, door locks, hatch lock, side mirrors, headlights, emblems. Im replacing it all whether it needs it or not.

The final touch will be House of Kolor Tangerine Kandy Paint which I already have as well.

Plans for next season include:

Full Brake 5-Lug Conversion
Better Radiator-Cooling set up
Wheels

and plans for the following season include:

Built Transmission
Interior will be completed w/
Corbeau LG1 Seats
Roll Cage with swing outs
new carpet
Gauges

and season after that final touches

EMS
Trikflow Heads
Turbo Kit
Different Cam
Fuel

There is a few things that are done or going to need to be done that I have not listed but this is just a basic plan for the build. I am sure things will change ect. Ill keep everyone posted on the build and hope to learn some things here as I been out of the game for a while.

Thanks and hope to be an asset here as well!
