but I figured this was a good enough reason. Took delivery Monday. It's a bit messy, but I haven't had a lot of time since to clean it up properly.

Yet.

First impressions? WHOAAAAAA!!!!!


By the way, Gary, it is ABSOLUTELY worth the wait. The feeling of that supercharger kicking in is TRANSCENDENTAL. You're going to spend a lot of time in that seat.

Thanks to Deysha, but especially to Jeff (05fordgt) for the help in getting this thing. I can't thank you enough, my friend. Those of you who have the opportunity to buy/work with him, take advantage of it.


Edit: I should mention that those are the Redline black hood struts for those interested. I removed the labels for a cleaner look.

Put this down as one of your first mods

You could probably spray paint the nomex black with some high temp paint, and it would look great and provide protection;

I will certainly look into it. I'm going to be putting this on tracks, so looks aren't *quite* as important to me as they are to others, but something simple like that is definitely worth doing. Thanks for the advice.

Seriously, that made me laugh out loud at my desk. I got looks.

It took long enough, wheelman, but it's worth it. I love this car.

Thanks Joe. I've never had a Boss, I had an '08 Shelby GT that I still miss. This makes me miss it less though.
