Seems like a bunch of bullshit & bitching going on now. So lets throw it back to how it was a few years ago and the reason most of us joined the site.

What are your rides looking like now, any cool builds going on, any new additions, pics, etc??

At the moment i only have my 1993 Cobra which im getting ready for a retune.. And my 1968 Mustang Coupe which is at paint..

nice cars!
a little backstory into my current project...
ended up totaling my 93 gt a while ago so started looking around for a notch to pretty much transfer over the 93 into, since i kept the car in pretty good condition...heres my progress so far..

How I bought the car



Nasty Interior that came with it, stains everywhere, loose panels, messed up headliner etc, etc





After taking ENTIRE interior out and laying down a couple layers of cheap insulation





After Installing the original black interior from my 93 including redoing my headliner..



So here's the car as it sits now... I installed my lowering springs and adjustable shocks and struts as well as caster camber plates from my wrecked mustang, car sits a little higher but the ride quality is ten times better now. Primered the front of the car and also put on the rims from the 93.







Wanna work on getting it painted next then doing the five lug swap and putting some better rims on it. Let me know what you guys think or if you have any questions about the interior swap.

Thanks fellas

@135.0 nice car.. im looking at coyotes at the moment to use as my Daily Driver.. probably going to wait for thanksgiving sales to pull the trigger though..

@Blk93Pony good job so far.. just swapping interiors changes the whole car.. i was looking for another foxbody as a project car, but these prices nowadays made me think twice..

@Blow_U_In_Reverse- thanks man, yea I was really happy with how it turned out, I also could have my kids in there since it didn't smell like a damn ashtray anymore lol

@Neight- I think the original color is Crystal Blue Metallic. That's where I am now I can't decide if I should paint it the stock color or switch it up.

Updated my original post as well

Fiji you always have some dope cars as do the rest of you guys. I'm back in a coupe but it's sadly an auto 4 banger. I bought it because it's as old as me (92) and had power windows and locks clean paint and clean title
I brought it back from Nevada almost a week ago. Found a donor coupe for wiring and full sn cobra suspension set up. Gonna go slow on this one.

Good shit, I'd say honestly if you go 11-14 the auto is better, I hear the 15-16s the manual got easier but I haven't driven one yet. Everybody says the s550s are dope.

@james bangers are the way to go now with all these busted ass 5.0's.. atleast u know its not dogged out, specially since its auto..

@SydeWaySix thats so clean. I wish the Boss was more in my price range!

@135.0 yeah i was reading about the transmission issues.. it just sucks that the 11/12 autos didnt come with the track package/BBP.. so my options would be limited to 13/14 or a non-track base GT 11/12.. is that your saleen?! Thats SICK!!

You have two, that must be a lot of fun! They are absolutely great dogs, might get another too.

---

We probably will get another Boston too, but not for a few more years. Since we have three dogs total.
