Finally "TERMINATOR" is on the ground.
 

The past 2 days I have managed to get some work done on my 67 Fastback mustang named "Terminator" This name came about from the drivetrain that is used in the 2003 Cobra mustangs That were originally called Terminators from Ford.

Yesterday I got the engine monted in place and today I put the front suspension in and managed to get it in rolling form . Tomorrow I wil be making a trans crossmember and starting on steering column joint placement along with making brackets for the Vintage Air Gen2 compac.

My plan is to have this car running in the state is is now . then back apart for paint.

I will post the rendering of it soon . Scott Can you help ?

Some details are:
All shelby bodywork, NO Eleanor crap !
Bear 13" brakes front and rear
DPE wheels
Heidts front end
9" with Maier Racing springs and panhard bar
2003 Cobra engine and T56 , 450rwhp
Ricks custom tank
Center exhaust
Blah, blah , blah....

I love those wheels !!! Those are wicked :D

Looking good so far.

Oregon Trail styles..

hey.. ford the river!

lost 2 owen.. :(

Cool project i seen this over at ur site when Fuel was getting built
those Dpe wheels look huge gotta love the fastbacks :thumbsup:

The DPE wheels are not for sure yet ,I Might strick up a deal with Forgeline!

Man your at it again!! Looks like its going to be another butt kicken car!!

that thing is sweet......What are those things you have for rolling it around now......I saw those on DSE's web page too....

Yeah at it again , One of the best parts is building them! Now that Fuel is done I find myself saying Damn ...now what . Well this is it . It wont be done till next year sometime

Kyle was nice enough to let me try out a set, They are called "wheel around"
Tomorrow i will see how well it moves with the engine in, I plan to move it outside and get some other pics and bolt up brakes and try a set of mock up 2003 cobra wheels to get some backspacing ideas and fitment. When i get the fenders on and other wheels i will post some more pics.

Kyle is allways nice!........he has since i met him 4 years ago....At columbus he asked my to come work for him when i get out of high school......He is a great guy.......Ill have to talk to him about those......could use a set for the shop.....

YEAH KYLE IS ONE OF THE NICEST PEOPLE ANYONE COULD MEET !

You got that right! He will do anything for ya!

what's the color going to be?

looks cool so far. keep us updated.

SILVER WITH CHARCOAL STRIPES

any little info for you . those wheels i have on for rollers DO NOT work with an engine in place . One broke this morning pushing it around

Isn't that what you painted the last Mustang?

yes , but i was going to reverse it . Bright silver with Dark gray stripes.

Those wheels look familiar. LOL

I think you should use those unless you get a real good deal from Forgeline.

Those wheels on my site are your wheel pics you posted om PT . I like them a lot. Do you have any other pics of them on your car ? You got my email right ?

I think you would make more of an impact if you went with a real color. If the car is going to be sold then some variation of a burnt/sunset orange with a metallic stripe. A variation on the shelby stripe would be cool. You want it to "look" factory, but be custom. That way is won't look dated down the line.

If I had a nickle for every silver/grey shelby stiriped Mustang I've seen.. It's a "safe" color but not a very exciting choice.

I understand really , I am open to other colors and nothing is set in stone yet . I like your color of your car and did think of that color also . I like suttle things that catch your eye. thanks for the constructive critisum, I will see what happens

how?
 

jason ? if i may ask

how do ya get to build all these cars? you have the mustang build ..the family velle wagon build ...you just finished fuel before the tour...
damn im jealous


radrambler

well if it makes you feel any better the wagon is going up for sale . The Camaro I built with the money from my 69 camaro and the 72 chevelle i sold .The camaro I bought right before the camaros started going nuts, I did a smart LS1 swap and did well on selling it , That helped a lot. Real estate prices in my area helped a lot also .

I am a car dealer also

Dats the stang looks like it will be sweet, but I have to make the standard post here the wheels are to big in my opinion and I think you should really move to a taller side wall those are going to bend the wheel the first bump you hit......................but that is just my opinion stangs cant run that low a profile...........LOL......LOL......LOL........... ROFLMAO (for those that dont know rolling on floor laughing my ass off) :lol: :rofl: :_paranoid

Looks like ANOTHER sweet project Jason! :thumbsup:

how about that funky PT cruiser gold color, no stripes.

I'm jumping on the "Color" band wagon. At the very least, choose a real color for the stripes.

HEY JASON :thumbsup: KEEP BUILDING ...YA GOT SOME COOL RIDES
hate to hear your DUMPING THE WAGON? DANG .

RADRAMBLER

Steve , call me on the telly when you can . we can talk about it and some other things

Thanks Hotrods, Those guys are out of control over there huh? Thats why i dont post there much anymore

I got my eye on a Buick , but at some point I will get the wagon I really wanted .I kinda settled for the 72 , its cool but not what i really had in mind.
I am going to get the body work done on it and put in black DP sealer , lower it and thats it , then its going on ebay

All G-Force cars are awesome! :thumbsup: Whatever Jason decides it will work. You should start giving tours of your facility. I will be the first one in line.

Hey Roger, where have you been ? How is your beautiful GTO ?

My place is nothing like DSE, but it gets the job done. Soon we are moving into a MUCH larger Facility.

nope never got your e-mail.
There on the car right now but they are all taped up for protection.
