The CCWs are great looking wheels, dont see to many on stangs no matter what the year.Talk about filling in the gap with the 15" rotors. Car looks killer, nice stance.

Wheels, hood, brakes, and stance.....it all looks good.

Just what size tires are those, Ron? I can't seem to find that info anywhere.


Your car is precisely the sort of build that I'd like to do the whole of instead of mostly just chipping around the edges of.

I got the 15" Baer front brakes new off the Corvette forum for $1400,the rear 14" Baer's aren't in yet $1600.The wheels 18x11 & 18x13 CCW's $2900. The car was floating around $9000, so I'm at about $15,000 minus what ever I sell my old wheels and brakes for.Only have the front brakes installed ,but it is a MAJOR improvement in stopping. Ron

The tire are 275-18 and 335-18 bfg's,and the car weighed 2750 before paint and fuel,I would imagine its about 2900 now,or 3100 with me in the car.

Don't know if anyone saw this or not but,the LS1 in my Mustang let go at RTTH(rod came out the side of the block). Grant, the owner of Temptress got this video of the carnage, check out the guy at the left of the screen kick my rod across the parking lot. Ron

I saw the carnage over on pt.com. Wow. Sorry about the motor, but this build and car is one of my favorites. You nailed the style and substance. Great video for us to watch.....probably painful for you.

Thanks, Wes

Hey Ron it was a pleasure meeting you at the RTTH's...... As I said there, I think your car is so cool buddy. I was happy to see it when down there as I had admired it from the photos of the Motor State Challenge... You know I think it's my favorite Mustang to date period....

I wish we hadn't slept through the auto X (heck us Canadian's never had great sense of time anyways LOL) as I would have love to see how the car handles first hand.... Anyways, we'll see you at the Motor State in the spring (maybe sooner else where) I hope bud.
