I think Blue Candy would look good, but it's close to Bright Atlantic Blue. I'd go with something that looks more custom for the era, like one of the darker blues that weren't offered on that year - like Sonic or DIB.

Radiator instal completed. Soldering the fan motor plug was a PITA. I still need to bleed the brakes bec. I had to remove a brake line from the abs module to remove the bracket to enlarge the nounting holes.

Update!

Made a few things to the pony today. Put the amp on a piece of wood so it won't be sliding in the trunk. Still needs carpet, but it will be done when I do the trunk. Also put some blue wire loom here and there to spice it up a bit.

Made a lower radiator air deflector out of some angled plastic and a piece cut from a discarded crv bumper. The pic shows it without trimming another 2 or 3 inches because it was too low. It was cut afterwards. Works great. Temp stayed at or below 210°.

Update!

Ordered a pair of new edge front calipers w brackets The front factory right one has been a PITA from some time, so it's a good excuse for an upgrade.

For 94-04, V6s and GTs did have the same brakes, but year dependent, since they switched to the dual piston fronts in 1999. So yeah, a V6/GT in 94 had the same brakes, and a V6/GT in say 03 has the same brakes.

Yessir! I have a set of my stock V6 brakes and I also have a set of Mach 1 fronts. Unfortunately my buddy cross threaded one of the calipers when reinstalling the banjo bolt, so one of them is semi-unusable. That's why I haven't even tried to sell them. I would think, since they're aluminum, it could be retapped for the next size up bolt, no?

That and a thread repair sleeve would make it as good as new.

Nice. If I knew you were looking I would've given you a screaming deal on those Mach 1 brakes. I have the stock slightly used blank rotors too (replaced them with slotted Rotorpros soon after doing the swap). I'm sure my dad would love them out of his garage LOL

I'll keep that in mind. If I convince my buddy to switch his fox to sn95 spindles I'll let you know.
