Peeled the wrap I put on last year and finally painted it. Nothing fancy but looks way better then the wrap. This car is finally done. Home built overload! I introduce you to " Ka-BLUE-E "

Bad ass and you made some parts yourself iirc............. That's putting it mildly..... I'd be willing to bet no one on this board has built as much of their own car, while going as quick as this car. This dude truly is one of my heroes. Really looks good. I'm sure no one would guess that you even built the body of the car yourself.

Looking good..always satisfying to do it yourself. I got tired of the time it took and also seems cheaper to buy these days.

Thanks gents. It's been a long road. I wish I could have found the original post I started somewhere around 05-06 when I started cutting it up. It's been fun. Hope to get a couple hits on it at the local track tomorrow. if you look around my photobucket by clicking one of the pics you can find a GIF of the build where I put a lot of the pics together. You can check out my Facebook page Acceleration Nation, I post more on it then other places. another view.

TRENDZ the Hemi is moving slowly. I could have bought an intake but picked up a Mighty Comet CNC mill instead. I figure I'll make my intake with it over the winter. The CNC is about a 95-96 model. If you know anything about this thing let me know. It's a Mitsubishi control. Tracks are closed around here for rain so next weekend I hope to get it out. Thanks gents. This board was a big help, Monty especially. Hope to improve on this soon

That's the car that should have been rear wheel drive with a 4.7 and later the 5.7 Hemi..... it could have been OUR Mustang!! Very nice what you've done with it!! Exactly, and with that name it had my hopes high to.
Mopar to the bone!!!
