Bill, it is really simple to pop off the front, and it made accessing the pins and pony easy. Anyone who is doing this should do the same. It took less than 15 min and simplified the install. And as posted previously it gives you a chance to clean bugs and other stuff from the radiator.

I am planning on installing a Paxton SC this winter so its part of the learning curve for the "Mother Of Al Projects".
Yeah, I've had the complete front end off mine when I converted to the Roush fascia......I think my main deal w/ the pony was I was so excited to get it in , I just did it the way I "thought" would be the "quickest"....LOL. Popping the grill out probably was the quickest way to go by the time I had my arm poked behind the grill popping off those pony fastners ;-)

UPDATE ON DELIVERY !!!!
I just heard that the factory pony shipment should be here by next Thursday , Nov. 3rd.They will all get sand-blasted , adhesion promoter and primed at the same time. Looks like we will begin sending out the pay-pal invoices to those who are on the order list By Sunday Nov.6th. Then we start production on Monday Nov. 7th .If the pony shipment arrives on time ( and I SERIOUSLY hope it does) this will kick things off !

thanks again for the continued and incredible interest !!!!

Bill

As stated above... EXCELLENT! You are fairly close to me then. Once I get the car I might have to drive on down.

Just an update for everyone......just opened a box FULL of brand new, sparkling chrome ( not for very long ;-) 05 ponies. Getting started media-blasting tonight , then hopefully the touch-up sanding, adhesion promoter and priming will be done by the end of the weekend. We should start shooting color monday afternoon . I will try to get the pay-pal invoices out Sunday evening to everyone on the "list" . We still believe everyone will receive their pony within 10 days of payment of their order. We want to be really sure we are sending parts that are safe to pack in regards to having had enough drying time.

thanks for the continued response,
Bill C.

No problem Bill. I can't wait. Will you post pics of the "dead horse" when you get a chance. I might go that route if it looks just right!
