The orignal Pot metal bumper extensions were not working for us with the stretch & the carbon fiber rear bumper... So.. We made our own out of sheetmetal & built them into the body...

Awesome work!!!

I was never a huge fan of this style Mustang, but this ones growing on me quickly.

It has been a while since I have any updates but here are a few... Still have parts being laser cut for rear suspension & parts are being machined... I have a few more new parts coming here pretty soon that I will show when I have the rear suspension done..

Cris, I thought I read somewhere in this tread that this was going to be a simpler build compared to BB :rofl: I don't think you are sticking to that anymore are you :cheers:

Looks nice Chris , hard to believe the owner changed his mind mid stream . Hopefully no more changes , that car is screaming for the Coyote engine . Wouldn't want to give him to much HP LOL !

Dude, that thing is going to be sweet. You guys are amazing as always.

Rick- This is a simpler build than BB.. We keep the orginal roof, doors, stock dash, & instead of a Coyote.. a 525 HP LS3... :D

Jason- The change on the engine was a mutal descision between me & the owner.. As for the other changes from the start to now have be things that I have been allowed to do as part of my R&D for my venture into the Ford world..

Cris@JCG 08-06-2012 09:04 PM

Thank you sir! Primo.. My main fabricator just keeps getting better with time.. with the rest of my crew! Juan.. my designer of my suspension in CAD is a big asset to what I have been doing lately... Plus my machinist KR..

Casey Cronin is another big tool to my current venture in the suspension world.. Today we spent some time discussing Anti-Squat, the effect of body roll on a panard bar adjustment, spring rates & posi units..

That's good stuff, and hats off to you for including them as your team effort. It shows that you have a great team effort and your ability to put that together. :cheers:
