I believe they are DPEs but I can double check to be 100%. The center cap is something that can just be added. I know the stang in this thread is using DPEs.

Those wheels are DPEs. From what Pete says you can only get them from Stangwerks. Pete is a really good friend of mine and has top notch customer service. He usually posts on www.modularfords.com his user name is 281blwngt

rrobello: Is this a new car for Ed or is it the one he had that got hit by a motorcycle?

Yes Stangwerks does deal in DPEs and do have custom wheels offered through them. Both Pete and Ed are great guys and do awesome work. This 07 is a new car, it replaced Eds 06 which was totalled by that motorcyclist. He first did it to look like the first pic I posted in this thread and is now redoing it to this orange.

These guys are good. I haven't met Ed since he is out on the West coast but I have been down to Pete's shop in Miami. Nice guy and does great work.

Good to see his car coming along. When I was there he took me for a quick tour which included the loft where all those mods where still sitting in boxes.

the paint scheme is being changed up a bit, the colors will remain the same and still doing the two tone, but instead of doing the stripes Ed's decided to do flames down the side. I saw what he plans on doing and it will definitely look sweet! The car went into the booth today so hopefully I will have pics of it soon.

and as far as DPEs go, they do custom fittings and Stangwerks is the sole distribrutor of them for Stangs, so if anyone is interested in a set feel free to PM me and I can look into it for you.

Sorry for the delay on updates, but because this car belongs to Ed and Stangwerks is now in the midst of movin' on up to bigger and better things, the progress is slow going. It did go into the booth the other day to lay down the base coat and then was masked to to the second color and I believe is now just waiting to get the airbrush graphics laid out. Another update, once the car is done with paint it will be going to Kenne Belle for a 2.3L SC, so I will do my best to snag some pics before it disappears again.

But a little update on what these bigger and better things are; yesterday I helped Ed with part of a huge move he is making. Stangwerks is changing locations to Azusa right on the main street (Arrow Hwy). The place is much larger than the current one in Rancho Cucamonga and many great things are in the works to make SW an even bigger success. The facilities and equipment are an upgrade and better and more work will be able to get done. There will be a showroom, with a nice large waiting area and much more. When the move is complete we will be doing a grand opening to do something very cool for all of SW's customers (new and old), give you all a chance to check out the new place and all of you will be invited. I will post more about this when the time draws nearer.

For now a few sneak peaks of what is to be:













and a quick look at some of the work by the talent that will be on hand:

Yeah my car is in the shop currently, but I was going to get my mirrors painted and shave my drunk emblem.

BTW, did you ever get those agent 47 mirrors painted? Wanted to see what they looked like before I painted my stockers..

your cars at stangwerks right now? or u going to have the last part done there?

no not yet, was about to have Ed just paint them as the waiting game on the kit and hood have been a bit long, but now it may be sped up and will be just doing it all at once to make it cheaper
