Hardest contest yet, lots of awesome cars this month.

Assram got my final vote though because s/c'ed new edge's are sweet, and he had a nice use of AR wheels, not your average bullits. Looks good

Glad you liked it! Actually the picture ROTM used is a touch old, only because it is missing the hoodpins, Mach 1 chin spoiler, and billet gas cap, but you get the idea I was going for a somewhat retro look for the car, and the 315s on the back really fill it out. It was fun to start with a stock 2000 GT and really go to town (for example, even little details like the hood scoop were added; those weren't on the 2000 GT but I loved the look.) Plus, it is low and mean looking in person and goes and stops like hell.

Here is a newer shot;

And here is the total list (I think, I may have forget some) of my mods:

[align=center] Rebuilt 4.6 with Manley rods/pistons, Cobra crank.
Vortech S trim with a better pulley.
Fuel system (mass air, 255 intank pump, lines, etc)
Steeda suspension kit.
Some Kenny Brown bits (subframes etc.)
Rebuilt heavy duty 5 speed.
King Cobra clutch.
Baer brakes.
3.73 gears
Steeda Tri-ax short throw shifter
Bassani/Flowmaster exhaust.
75mm Throttle body
17 by 9 and 17 by 11 (315) wheels.
Alumn. driveshaft.
Kickass stereo and base tube and the rest.
Chip and a fairly moderate tune... blew it up once already, don't want to do it again.
Some random stuff like the mach 1 front end spoiler, Mach 1 shift ****, trick mustang tire valve caps, real hood pins, rosewood interior pieces, billet gas cap, emblems... a bunch of little finishing things.
[/align]
2 x Reader Ride featured car in Muscle Mustang/Fast Fords (including one Castrol Car of the Month... anyone want a case of motor oil?)

420 RWHP and 425 torque on a moderate tune.

Thanks Toke, I know I have a stock hood so the pins aren't TRULY necessary, but again, I love that 1969 with hoodpins look, you know? It is just so damn muscle car.

BTW, have you gotten that car on a dyno yet Toke? Any numbers?

And barn, I like your car; mean stance.
