So thought I would come here and post a few pictures of my baby. I'm pretty much done with the motor and I'm moving into the interior. Getting ready reupholster everything with black suede. Already picked out the seats, decided to go with Corbeau GTS II, having trouble finding a suede back seat so it's looking like I might just pull it and do it myself.

Would love ANY and ALL suggestions and comments.

Looks sweet, like the color LOL. you need to do a 3g upgrade. I just did a restoration on mine a few years ago, pulled it all apart, new paint, trim, etc. If you need any help/advice feel free to ask. you can check out my tech thread for any info or I'll help in any way I can.

The last phase I'm waiting for is the my motor build. I'm mild right now, looking to do either a 347/363, forged bottom, haven picked heads yet, ed curtis cam and a possible vortech. I was thinking about an astro A5 but might lean to built TKO600. I already built the rear, welded tubes, 31 spline etc. maximum motorsports braces, etc.

Any recommendations for the 3G? As for questions I am sure I will have a ton! Like I mentioned I don't have ANY experience with interior work outside of installing audio/video.

I have the paperformance 3g and mini starter. They have great kits, lifetime warranty, the units are high quality and they are great to deal with.

I mentioned it earlier in my intro post but I decided to go with the 347 myself. I looked that site over and it doesn't seem bad at all. Might just have to make that a weekend here shortly lol

I read you had a 347, nice build. I have a really good builder in my area, he has done feature builds in muscle mustangs & fast fords, mustang 5.0. and a few other mags. He has done work on my car ( rearend, torque box renforcements, few other items). I'm still going over things in my head. stuff like wether or not I want an aftermarket block, heads crap like that. I even think about a punched 351, so yeah I'm set

I know how you feel. I wonder sometimes about dropping compression and adding a sc but then again I have a wonderful daily driver/cruiser...
