My 93 GT!

Finally after looking at her sitting for almost eight years she has gone to get painted!! But not without some obstacles to overcome. I knew the fuel pump had gone bad and needed replacing but the can of worms I opened up was terrible. After all was said and done i ended up replacing the tank, pump hanger and pump, sending unit and filter. Guess that's what happens when you get moisture in the tank and it sits for eight years.
I can't wait to get her back and reassembled.

I've owned this one for a long time and had put it away to take care of my family first and know its time to get on it. It was sitting on jack stands for almost eight years in my shop in touched the whole time. I can't wait to get it done and drive the wheels off of it! In the mean time my 02 GT will have to get me by. Lol

I pretty much have her back together now just a few odds and ends to wrap up. I'm going to polish the wheels next to make them look great again.

This is the original antenna but I hated how tall it was so I shortened it instead of buying one.

After a brief pause on working on the car so life could move on I'm back at it. I've tossed around the idea of polishing the original pony wheels but have decide that that would be a lot of work and effort put into a set of wheels that will be useless when I change the car over to five lugs. So I've decided to paint them gloss black and run them until I no longer need them.
With that said here is what the first one looks like.
Looks good I think.

Finally got two of the wheels completed almost just need to wet sand them and buff them out.
Im liking the choice of painting them black more and more.
