If you remember the project repair/buildup that we did for one of our customers The Sickness project .......Now it's happening again. This one though is my personal car so it's going to be an after hours project at the shop....I picked up a '95 GT Convertible that had been wrecked in the front end and then someone "attempted" a repair and to call that attempt "poor" would be an understatement....it was a joke in my opinion....so we removed the half arse "repaired" front cage and will rebuild this car the right way. Here are pics of the car when I first got it some time ago and as of today when we gutted it in preperation for the new front cage....


The car is going to be built with a few subtle mods and changes and will be painted mineral grey. I am building this one as a new daily driver for my wife so we can retire the 7up '90 vert to occasional duty. :D

Awesome! can't wait to see this one finished. :nice:

What all mods are you planning?

Engine: Cobra intake, GT40 heads, headers....nothing radical

Body: Cobra front bumper cover, Cobra R hood, Saleen S281 rear spoiler, '96 taillights

Wheels: Anthracite Bullitts or FR500's....10.5" rears & 9" wide fronts

I am going to shave the antenna off the car as well and we may tweak some other things on the body...

sounds sweet!!!!! Good luck!

man paul, your livin my dream life, your a lucky man....

sweet :nice:

Yup, sounds like it'll be a pretty sweet car when done!

Glad to see the project getting started Paul. I know this is one you've been wanting for awhile.

Are you going to at least go with a Ford letter cam for a mild lope or anything? I think that magnaflow setup Flashbang had on his vert would be awesome on this car as well.

I haven't decided on a cam or not yet....For the exhaust I want to keep the car mild...I have a stock take off Mach 1 cat back I may use unless I come across a deal on an IRS rear setup...then everything for the exhaust changes :D

The repair job on the front end was scary. How anyone could say that was repaired with a straight face makes on shudder!

Atleast we know this one will be put together correctly!


I'm curious to find out if that passenger rear quarter is a coupe that was hacked or a newer vert quarter!

looks like you are gonna have some more fun. id say go with the FR500's everyone has bullitts. havent seen many of those

:what:
:scratch:

is this another car added to the list?

Good luck with it... i can't wait to see the results.

Nope, I've had this one for a while now...just never had a chance to get it inside the shop and the wife is getting antsy for a new car :D

:worship:

musta missed this'n

cant wait to see more of it!

that duct tape on top, is that like the stickers ricers use to increase 'speed' ? :jester:

Thats, 200mph tape!

that should with worth 10-15 HP on the top end :D
