[QUOTE="Sul303, post: 17032943, member: 205344"] Good Day Everyone, I’m a bit new to the scene. However, been a lover of all things cars (that go boom) ever since I was a kid. But I’ll save you the trouble of my story and I’ll cut to the chase. A few months ago I bought an 88 notchback (no engine no transmission) I got the car although it might look rough on the outside all the chassis and the underside was preserved pretty well. I saw that and I thought to myself what a great 1ST project car and what it is even greater is that I’ll be coyote swapping(ish) it. I knew it will take a very longtime given the financial commitment as well as me living outside the US. But but but there is progress and I’ll sharing as much as possible here from parts I get to any progress updates I have. I’m also hoping to pick up some pointers from the nice folks here. So the aim for this build is to have a super clean coyote swapped foxbody that I can hop in and turn on and take for a drive any day (daily-able street car) with a manual transmission (still haven’t decided on what transmission. Although I’m leaning towards a Tremec T56 6-speed or a TKO). Until now I have obtained the following: A UPR K-Member [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.uprproducts.com/79-93-mustang-5-0l-coyote-swap-chrome-moly-k-member-kit/[/URL] SVE 31 Spline Heavy Duty Rear Axel Kit (5 lug conversion) 3.73 gears: “I couldn’t find it in LMR” DSE MINI TUBS [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.detroitspeed.com/products/body/mini_tub_kits/parts/040406DS[/URL] DSE non adjustable rear suspension kit: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.detroitspeed.com/products/suspension_and_chassis/dse_speed_kits/speed_kit_3/parts/041647DS[/URL] DSE Chassis stiffening kit: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.detroitspeed.com/products/suspension_and_chassis/subframe_connectors_and_chassis_stiffening/subframe_connectors/parts/010116DS[/URL] Ride tech front suspension kit w/ hq coilovers [URL unfurl="true"]https://ridetech.com/product/front-sla-suspension-system-1979-1993-mustang-aftermarket-k-member/[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]https://ridetech.com/product/front-hq-series-coil-overs-1979-1993-mustang-with-ridetech-sla-aftermarket-k-member/[/URL] So far this is what I have ordered and you might see a trend with kits since I live out side the US shipping is a bit of a challenge and these kits might be expensive but they save me a ton on shipping as they are all in one and along with me not wanting to order incompatible parts. Regardless this is where I stand right now any help you might be able to give me along the way would be very much appreciated. Sorry for the janky pictures I have the car covered right now I’ll be moving it soon and I’ll take more pictures. [/QUOTE]
