| | Bodywork done in 1992, stored indoors since. | |
| | | It held up pretty well, tho not show quality. | |
| | | Body guy set fenders before valence, it no longer fit. Looked good anyway. | |
|
| | 124,000 miles, and I drove about 4,000 after building the engine & suspen... | |
| | | VA vintage plate - no tax, no inspection! | |
| | | Trunk pad caused ugly surface rust. I wouldn't fit one to a newly restored car. | |
|
| | That's a new floor damaged, too. Grr. | |
| | | 14 years does leave some marks in the paint. | |
| | | TTI dual exhaust, Koni shocks, XHD springs. Drove like a big sports car. | |
|
| | | 8 way power seats from a 1988 Porsche. You need some bolsters in this car. | |
| | | If I could go back in time, I'd smack the guy who... | |
|
| | ...cut the door panels for speakers. | |
| | | I was a member of the Special Interest Auto Club in the mid-80s. | |
| | | Tuff rim was added after re-covering with a generic kit. Looked OK. | |
|
| | The seats were a great add, comfy, supportive around corners and easy to do. | |
| | | Pistol grip shifter looks great but I often ran a short lever with a ball. | |
| |
| | Somebody optioned this car pretty well in the day: AC, light pkg, more. | |
| | |
| | Seat belts were re-webbed by Ssnake-Oyl. Metal and plastic were in good shape... | |
| | | ... but 30+ year old nylon ain't real strong. I like being alive. | |
| | | Another speaker hole. Grrr. | |
|
| | TSM rear disks (GM caliper, Lincoln rotor). Manual MC from a Diplomat. | |
| | | Viper front caliper over 11.75" Cordoba rotor. Moderate pedal effort, great feel | |
| | | 1" front swaybar, factory 3/4" rear bar, 1.08" torsion bars, Koni shocks. | |
|
| | LCAs reinforced per factory Trans Am racing experience. New bushings all around. | |
| | | Firm Feel Stage 2 steering box, 11/16" tie rods. Steering feel much like my 944. | |
| | | Original block 0.030" over, TRW 10.5:1 pistons, | |
|
| | Steel crank, 2.02" J heads, 284/284/.484 cam | |
| | | Edelbrock Performer RPM intake, 600 double pumper | |
| | | TTI headers and 2.5" exhaust. | |
|
| | Alum crossflow radiator, Lincoln elec fan | |
| | | MP distributor & ignition, Diplomat master cylinder. | |
| | | 255/50-17 Kumho 712 tires on 17x8 Mustang rims (light, forged, cheap FTW!). | |
|
| | Headlights upgraded with relays, never dim | |
| | | After 20 years of working when I had the chance | |
| | | I think it came out pretty nice. Did I mention it drove great too? | |
