A few pics of my 90 GT vert which I am currently in the process of restoring, well resto mod is a better word for it. First two pics are before any mods and the last is with the mods listed in my signature. Future plans include a motor rebuild, new top, paint, and some interior trim pieces. I'd also love to convert to a 5 lug 4 disc brake set up but that would mean buying new rims. :scratch: Can't quite swing that one at the moment!!!

Oh, almost forgot, the stock GT tail lights have been swapped out for LX lights. You just can't see it here in these pics. The pics are a few months old, I'll have to post new ones once I give her a wash and wax. The LX tails gives the car a much cleaner look IMO.

Thanks for all the nice comments. The 18's do fill out the wheel wells nicely. I'd like to go 245's front and rear but I'm not sure the 245's will fit on the front. I know I can go larger in the rear, I just have to flip the quad shocks.

actually they should fit, and they might rub alittle when you make a u turn but thats about it. according to tire rack 245/40/18 have pretty much the exact same dimensions as my 245/50/16's

Your doing a great job with it. Wish my dads 89 GT looked like that. He refuses to change anything.
