Now that's the best looking stripe job I've seen yet. And finally someone did not stripe the roof.

Good looking car.

Your car looks killer stangscuba98a
You're going the same direction as me! Working on transforming mine into a '69-'70 Mach1/Boss 302 clone. I started from the ground up (pun intended!) though. I got my Magnum 500's and tires 1st and I'll do the rest as I can. The wheels were'nt that bad, I got mine from CJ Pony Parts $568.00 for all four shipped to the door. It's funny, these wheels are listed as and most people call them Mach1 wheels, but the boxes they came in from FRPP, said "Magnum 500" right on them.
Keep up the great work! Here is a shot of mine.

SHAKER!!!!!

Your car looks great. What else you got planned?
Maybe a hood scoop that fits the cars large hood better than the shaker? Might leave as is I don't know. Performance is next when the $$$ permits. Thanks for the comments.

Had my hood re-done by better shop to get it perfect. Added side stripes, black spoiler, (thanks vegasjay), and black rear. What do you think????

Maybe add a hood scoop, shaker at a later date when money is right!


Fan-f***ing tastic! This is almost EXACTLY what I want to do with my Torch Red 'Stang. Same chin and black rear spoiler, but I haven't yet decided what direction to take with stripes on the side: your approach, or perhaps Boss L or C-stripe? And I'm adding hood pins.

Where did you get the rear spoiler, or did you have it painted?

Cool man!

Are they vinyl or paint? and as asked above... what measurements did you use. I've thought about changing my rally stripes to one fat one since the first one I saw on here.

That is really nice, the shaker would totally complement that most awesome look you got going.

Edit:

You can't say B A D A S S? (most awesome)

Thanks.

All decals are vinyl and the hood measures 20.5 inches across with a 1/2 inch pinstripe. The side decals measure 2 inch centers with 1/4 inch pinstripe with 1/4 of an inch between the stripes.

The rear vinyl is precut piece I bought off Ebay and installed myself.

The rear spoiler was bought from another TMS member (vegasjay) and is a factory spoiler off his black GT.

darn...got an email back from them and he said...

Yes, we sell it but just with the shaker hood and bottom block off plate for
1095.00 + shipping. It is made to the same contour as our hood so it will
not bolt up to a stock hood. We do not ship painted parts.

Thanks
Terry

Oh well. Got to look for a good scoop without paying too much $$$$$.
