I think the 69-73 Mustangs get away well with 20" wheels due to the big body. Paint the spokes on the 20"s and put them back on!

Here you can see that the hood and hood scoop are installed ..I opted to use stock rear inner fenders as well as stock hood hinges i wll have them powder coated.....as i needed a starting point for the hinges and i built the rest of the inner fender from here....

12-16-09 Ok time for an update...The company i bought the rear brakes from dropped the ball and sent the wrong ones so after a 3 week wait they showed up ..i built up the rear end and installed it under the car ..had to refabricate the new upper and lower mounts as well as relocate the coil overs and mounting set up.. and reset the rear...once the rear was back where I wanted it I ordered a custom made drive shaft (only 44" long)....as for the interior I had to remove all the sheetmetal that I had already fabricated for the stock looking interior, as i changed the direction the interior I was going..it will now be all black leather and power, lets just say im bringing some new touches into the old..I will post pics when its all installed....
Here are some pics..
Here is the upper mounts that were made from 1/4 steel plate as u cant just buy fabricated mounts for a late model setup onto a 9 inch
