That's right, sold my 89 GT. I'm tired of this Mustang crap once and for all. I'm buying a Camaro.......just kidding, partly.
No really, sold my 89 GT body and rear and bought a 2001 body for my next project. Kept my motor and trans and some other odds and ends.
Just got back from HP Motorsports in Omaha where I dropped the car off. There they will be installing a complete 4-link back half enabling me to run a 31 x 15 x 15. Also, sheet metal doors (inner) and lexan windows and a full 12-point chromoly cage, parachute, and 9 inch rear.
Before leaving for Omaha I installed a D&D Motorsport k-member, a-arms, coil overs, and caster/camber plates.
Should have her back in mid February where I will then wire the car and have it painted Mineral Gray (dark charcoal). Also thinking about some "Mach 1" black stripes below the doors, somewhat like the Mach 1 Ford had in MM&FF. I can't wait!!!!
I will post some pics of before and after, should be interesting!
On my trip to Livonia, MI to pick the car up I got to meet both Dan and Darius, way cool meeting those guys. Dan took me for a ride in his Lightning and I was waaaay impressed. Those things rock.
Anyway, check out this video (BELOW) of my 89's best quarter mile pass at 9.78 smoking a Camaro. Let off about 400 feet before the end or would have been faster (still kicking myself!!)
Take care all!
