Be very careful with the mods before you get a PFC or any other aftermarket computer. As others have stated, when you open up the intake and exhaust on these things, they obviously breathe better and can go lean. You don't want your next mod to be a new engine!

your AST is about to crack. Given the color you are living on borrowed time...

FYI- From the factory it came in black not green

With that said I am going to get the 7 painted, it has some nicks and scratches and the hood appears to be some what out of alignment, witch all are easy fix. I will install the Boost gage, temp gauge and oil gauge, this weekend and next week is of to the body shop. I will post some more pictures soon.
Thanks to all you for your support.

Very nice ride! Congrats!

I cant remember his name, but I dealt with a gent at Sahara -- he was one of the coolest guys I dealt with while shopping for my FD 'remote' (from TX). While the car was white (the color I REALLY wanted, but wound up getting a montego blue) when it was inspected it didnt pass muster

"best looking FD, until we put it up on the lift and looked underneath" -- The guy at Sahara was understanding and totally cool about it.

Good buy!!
