Talk about last minute... We are now 4 days away from taking off for mustang week and I just installed my cowl grill. I didn't like everything that was on the market and I don't like doing the same thing as everyone else so I decided to keep it stock looking and just shave the factory piece. Here is the result.

4 am and finally finished reading your entire build. I talked to you at Knotts and it is amazing seeing what you went through on this build. Good work man. Awesome car! We are moving back to Az soon, maybe see you on the road..

Well, just finished the 2200 mile trek from Arizona to South Carolina for MustangWeek. Happy with everything, the truck pulled great, temps were all great, super happy I pulled the trigger on studding and deleting it.

Super cool thing about this car community is that I had several guys reaching out to me that I have never met in person letting me know if I needed a place to stay on the way I could, if I needed any help with anything they would be willing to help. The minute I got here I had guys texting me asking if I needed any help unloading the car etc.

I am ready for MW to commence, more pics coming soon!

And I found this on the car. Not sure where it came from but it wasn't there a few weeks ago when I pulled it into the garage. Oh well, already scratched so now its time to just drive it more and enjoy it.

Love the car. Found your car on instagram, read through the whole build thread, and made an account to comment. Looks like a great driver, and loved that you got to work on it with your Dad.

Thanks for following along man. Obviously this is the place where most the details are so hope you enjoyed!

I don’t have the time to go through all 42 pages and find the exhaust setup but god that thing sounds unholy. Soooo good!!!

LOL. its a fully customized setup. 3" all the way out, stainless. Magnaflow x pipe, dynomax race bullet mufflers. tails out the rear.

Made it back from MustangWeek! What a blast that was, holy shit.

Truck ran amazing the whole way, glad I studded it before I left.

I made a lot of great friends while I was out here, already planning a trip for next year.
Here are a bunch of random pics from the trip.

For the show I was selected to be inside the convention center, nice and cool AC.

@suicidekings well that was just badass. I can't imagine how hard it was not to wanna rev it up inside that building lol.
Out of all of the pictures, the one with your old man is the best. Maybe it's because of the work you guys did together and that was your reward (cruising in myrtle)
