Hey hey! I'm not alone with my PT notchback! Alright a fellow fox Mustang guy. I'm getting ready to get back to my 85 5.0 Notch project here this week. Getting ready to order a real nice set of 18x8 and 18x9s with custom backspacing for it. There's too many Ford Wheels on these Fox Mustangs so I'm ordering a wheel that I think nobody has fit to a 5.0 yet. It's modern and vintage at the same time. I should have them on the car by the first of April.

As a tip on these fox bodies - if you want to keep the fox-length rear axles and still use the SN95 rear brakes, check out North Racecars. The SN95 rear axles with the disc brakes push the rear axles out a little over a 1/4". They made their own custom NHRA approved 5 lug axles and caliper brackets.

Anyways, I have two of these money pits, I mean projects and most of the time they're fun. Keep us posted on the coupe!

Here's a couple pics of my 85 Notch. I also have the SN95 stuff but only in the front so far. The rear kit is next.
