Hi Everyone. This has been a 5 year build. Going to post a quickie build thread as requested .

[crestronwizard]

This is what I started with.



Stripped it down with straightforward plans to put a 4.6 in and some suspension mods

When I started the build I only had two kids. Now I have 4!

Project creep went into a full sprint as I got an AME Chassis and suspension goodies

[crestronwizard]

On the welding table. Fitting the Coyote engine and building the floor, body mounts, etc

Flushed the glass

Figuring out the tailpipes



Flushing the rear and mounting LED tail lights







Built the grille



Custom tank

Need more power. If only I had known how many headaches this had in store for me...............





Finishing the smoothing



Through the deck lid gas fill







Let's just cut the hood to fit around the supercharger









Body back off to head to paint prison

Patiently waiting for the rest....In the mean time, what's going on at the back of the car in the picture? I see the bumpers been molded into the body, is the trunk extended and the taillight panel recessed?

It was an unexpected by product. Once the bumper and all was welded and molded in, the tail light pan appears recessed but I think we actually left it in the factory position. We added some metal to the trunk lid lip. I'd honestly have to have it next to a factory one to point out all the differences. Would make for a good "Hocus Pocus" in the newspaper, if you remember that strip. Lol
