Appreciate all the compliments guys!

 

Looks sweet man!!! Glad I could be of help. That thing's stance is sick!!!

 

complete hotness!!!!!

 

Oh yes, looks awesome!




May I ask what the average price for that conversion is and if it is an easy mod or not?

 

About $2400.00 assuming you do the complete Shelby GT500 conversion.
Here is the parts list.

 

Do you know about how much it costs for just the front end conversion including paint?

 

$2400 just for the kit or including painting?

 

Your looking at another $1000.00 - $1600.00 for paint. Depending on what your looking for. Its not cheap. I did all the labor myself to save some money.
Its pretty easy to do - you can do it all on a Saturday afternoon. I did it in two because this old body was tired after doing the front end.

 

Is the Shelby hodd needed in order for front fascia to fit? I still want to know how much the cost was for these parts, excluding labor...Just the front end.

 

No you can use the gt500 hood with the gt front fascia. i t would be recommended to purchase the new plastic radator plastic bezel.

 

Did you not see the pics? I dont have a shelby hood and it fits so.... Email Kevin @ Clevparts@aol.com for the hotsheet and pricing.

 

Do wee really need the radiator brackets. I heard you on ly reall need the bumper brackets. And the hardware, can we get them from a hardware store or do you really need the ford parts? If

 

Do wee really need the radiator brackets. I heard you on ly reall need the bumper brackets. And the hardware, can we get them from a hardware store or do you really need the ford parts? If so, which are needed. Ill be doing a yellow front in this coming week. Will post pix when done!!!!!

 

No radiator brackets will be needed

 

Yeah I didn't use any new radiator brackets, just a radiator shroud.

 

Is the "sight shield" the radiator shroud? If so, then I have to get rid of my painted Midwest Auto gear one right? Also, are the splash shields different from GT? I checked a crash book and Shelby # is same a GT. Finally, there is a bracket-fascia/headlight guide and bracket-fascia mounting(upper) your saying neither one is needed. Thanks I'm trying to do this on the cheap by trying to recycle as may parts as possible.

 

A sight shield? Thats what goes up on top of the radiator right? If so yes thats GT500 specific. The Wheel wells are the same as the v6 but the GT is different. I heard someone got away with using the GT ones but the kit came with v6 inners so I used them. You need both of those brackets, I was saying I didn't use any radiator specific brackets(like to hold the radiator on). I should have worded my reply clearer.

 

No need. I was looking to get some other questions, I have about the conversion, answered by someone who has actually done it to their car.

Thanks

 

The GT hoodline looks much better then the bulky GT500 hood, which really 'porks' up the car. Some of you boys have GOT to get some mirror caps

 

No thanks to the mirror caps, I'm waiting for the Cal-VU mirrors to come out so I can replace those elephant ears all together!
