Im not for molded in sideskirts, as soon as you get some suspension mods on that car, the shakes and vibrations from a stiffer suspension will surely crack the molding. Those skirts dont even match the GP front and rear, what exactly are they?

Im not even worried about the body cracking any worse, its been the same for YEARS. Wish the PO didnt mold/bondo everything. As for the skirts i completely forgot what they were by now.I just know its as rare as the spoiler and i like them more than 75% of the bold boxy looking skirts out there. That picture doesnt really show how nice the skirts are.

Did the mustang wheels fit perfectly or did you have to do anything to the fenders?

Mate, do you drive it with the door bar (or lack thereof) like that.

Also, you should move your harness bar up.

Besides that, looks great. Nice work.

I drive it on the streets like that. I have a bar that goes in there when I race.
Yeah... I have to get the harness bar moved up and a bunch of other crap to make it pass tech.

Nice as always, Bruce!! That car is a BEAST!!

I stole your idea about how to mount the IGN-1A coils. Worked out great!

Also, it's funny that you mentioned wanting to do your wheels in copper. I just finished stripping and powder coating my wheels last night. I decided to go with copper on mine as well.

We went with translucent red on the manifold and turbo.

I also finally got around to making the light covers for my B-Wave bumper. Loving it!

Pics attached. Enjoy!

Hey Reese! Yeah those copper dipped wheels are sick!
Love yer enginebay! Beautimus!
Yeah, mounting the coils with the stock brackets works pretty slick and I love those coils. They seem to ignite my E85 with no problem....
