It's been sitting in my driveway, wanted to sell the diesel first did that. Now i need to sort out a few gremlins on my darkside first. It just needs fueling and wiring and she should be good for first start.

Big update coming soon... teaser, we tore it back down to a bare shell to refurbish some things and undo some messups by a previous person who worked on it.
Patched the undercoating(freeway semi truck tires ate a good 40% of it)
Re-painted the engine bay flat black
Dissembled the whole front and rear suspension to replace with polys and new pillows. Unfortunatly noticed the front strut bushings have collapsed so new struts will have to be bought
Did some ninja weight reduction, Put my carbon fiber doors and hatch with lexan in the hatch on it. Also put a racing brake rear brake kit on.
Orange mmmmmm

Mistah kevin,, I looked at them and looked at how mine arent cracked yet... they are easy to swap after the fact.
Prepped the suspension components for their new bushings!

Nice "beater"! (Even though I can tell it's not and never will be a beater 
)
Are you going to wrap the CF doors? No sense having CF body parts unless you show em off, know what im saying?
Also, what kind of rims do you have on the Montego 7 on page two?

this build is awesome. was definitely expecting something different...like a beater lol.
love that hood. won't quite work the same with the new engine tho huh. i like how subtle it is but functional as well.
is that your garage with all 3 of those 7's?

damn that's an awesome garage full of cars you've got there.
how hard was it to modify the hood? i may have to borrow that idea if i go through with my plans. let me know if you sell it.

The whole turbo/intercooler setup was bought by Kevin Gringo Grande on the forum here... the hood was easymy fabricator did a U cut, cut the webbing from the back then rounded it down and welded on sides and a front.
