Paint is on! The plan from the beginning was a ‘suede’ or semi flat paint job. I think we got it just right. Paintcode: Ford UJ (2010 Sterling Grey Metallic). Some better outside pics soon. We start bolting her together next week. Stay tuned!!
It’s here! After working with Magnaflow for years, we finally got them to build us a Magnapak system for the early FOX Mustangs. They had never designed on before but now they have. We knew we wanted a very aggressive system for our new 2011 5.0 engine and now we have it. Magnaflow expects to start offering these soon. This system is a stock configuration for a FOX Mustang, there is nothing ‘special’ about it to fit our swap. We plan to worry about what is ‘custom’ exhaust up towards the headers.
Our wheels arrived from American Muscle! The black17x9 03 Cobra wheels (http://goo.gl/ETN2) with the Sumitomo tires (http://goo.gl/zXAG) look great. #fordracing #stangnet We can’t wait to get them on the car once she comes back from paint, which we hope is soon! We have a long way to go but we are really excited about assembly time.
Project ‘Built to Cruise’ has been completely disassembled to paint stage. New bumper covers and front fenders are what will change body wise. We removed all the trim and have new to replace. All R&D has been done for motor fitment, more to come on that later. We are excited to be at this phase. While she is at paint, we will begin cleaning and painting interior pieces to black and having the seats reupholstered to black leather. Stay tuned for more updates!
Nick @ Classic Design Concepts is applying the final touches to our open grille bumper design for our ‘Built to Cruise project’. CDC expects to have these available for sale for all those that were inquiring if this bumper design was going to be available. We think it will be a slick look for Fox LX bumpers. We will keep you posted on availability and what the final ‘look’ is.
After working with RAM Clutches to see what setup would work on the
new 2011 5.0 engine, the parts that work are here! If you are
planning to run a manual clutch in a swap, then this setup will work
for you. It’s basically a 4.6L setup that we are used to seeing in a 99-04
GT/Cobra setup. Part #s are: Flywheel – 1545 Clutch Set – 88951HDX. We
went for a street/race setup to maintain a good daily driver feel to
the gear shifting. http://www.ramclutches.com
Car body underneath is in great shape. No need for painting or coating.
