Im going to pick the wheels up today I think and then I just need to measure to see what size spacers I have to use. Hopefully I can get these mounted up in a week or two. Then Ill see what you think

Looks nice. I always liked these Mustangs.

Personally, i think the silver wheels would look best, or perhaps charcoal all over.

got a few things done in the last week or so:

Subframe connectors welded on
Poly strut rod bushings on
New front coil springs on
removed lowering blocks since the front is so rediculously high!
Got an alignment

The car drives totally different now, Much stiffer, feels much better on the road.

But... The new springs raised the front end a ton! I thought about leaving the old ones on but I thiink I had cut too much off of them and they werent carrying enough of the front end weight because it was bouncy on the road.

I ned to trim the new springs though so it doesnt look like an old school gasser lol

Oh and by the way, This car is my DAILY DRIVER as of a couple weeks ago because my mom got rid of her car and took back the one I was driving
