05stangkc Customers GT-500 & Gt/CS FINAL Conversion PICS! PLEASE POST HERE!

For My Customers who Have Installed the Shelby and GT/CS Body Pieces on there Stangs!

Please Post Some Good Pics Here! Front, 3/4 Side, Side And Rear Would Be Great! Also Before and After Would be Nice! Also Feel Free to Share any Details of your TRIBUTE conversion. The word Poser is derogotory and these cars are not Posers! People are not trying to pass off their cars as Legitimate Shelbys. They are a Tribute to the Styling of cars and a Look they like!

Please Share with members also Any Good Reaction Stories about Other peoples Reactions to these Beauties! I know Dave Has a good One about a Local Dealer in His Area that caught his car at the Bodyshop!

This is For Completed Cars so Members can see for themselves the Final Results all in one Place.

This Forum Is for Fans of the Conversion not Those who Disapprove! Which is one Reason it is in{ My OEM Parts Section }and Not MODS! If you do not Like this Type of Mod that is ok but again this is a Forum For those who Appreciate these cars! Please no Posting of Derogatory comments!!!

Thanks,

05stangkc

Kevin,
Put my car in the shop today to have the GT-500 back bumper installed.
Should be done by the middle of the week but can't get back there to pick it up before next weekend. I'll post pics as soon as I can. Went to a local Ford dealer to get it done.
Thanks again.
Steve

This should be a cool thread! All of us in one place... Cool!
I'll have my pix up by tuesday, my car was due back 100% friday, but the painter is still polishing so i got pushed to Monday Now.

I was telling Kevin the story about what happened the day i dropped off the re-assembled car (all GT500 parts) to my painter.... he had told me that there were 7-8 guys all standing around drooling all over it, shortly thereafter a Big shot from a local Ford dealership showed up and liked it so much he is considering having that bodyshop build a bunch of these for him! My responce was, hey.... don't forget to send the comission check to me!! Naturaly, i am refering him to Kevin, and hopefully he will go over some kits w/Kevin. That would be cool as Kevin really put out a nice parts kit right down to the last screw. Made this deal enjoyable and easy! I can't hardly wait to see the final product monday. what i had so far was to say the least just increadible! After i dropped it off at the painter, it was sitting about 50 feet away, and i was waiting for my ride home, i could not believe i owned such a sweet ride! I was drooling myself! Was the first time i was able to step that far away and actually appreciate what i had done. Best part was, it was not even finished yet! Anyways, hat's off Kev! You Da Man!! My Finished Pix will be up Monday or Tuesday..... If i can get away from behind the wheel first!

Here is mine, I will try to get some better pics once the weather clears... like Tuesday.

Here is a link to my install thread http://forums.bradbarnett.net/showthread.php?t=51365

EVERYONE at EVERY car show stares at my car and can't figure it out. They are obviously not true Stang fans, because if they were they would know the Shelby didn't come in Silver.

I also get at least 3-4 PM's a week about hte car. thanks Kevin for all of your help.

Great pics all! I'm looking forward to seeing more pics from cars with the California Special kit added. I'd add pictures of mine but I got my bumper covers from a local Ford parts guy that I know.

This a "been there, done that" set of photos.
Thanks for the help with flanged spoiler bolts and fog lamp connections, KC.

Thanks KC!!! I tried something slightly different with the paint and I'm really happy with how it came out.
