Installed springs (Tein S-Tech) and tinted the tails (VHT nite shades, plus clear coat)

new shoes to go on. 18" black saleens in 265/285 Nitto nt555

new front end to be painted and go on. 03/4 cobra bumper, new headerpanel, smoked/clear headlights, HIDs

waiting for hood. first hood came damaged/cracked, refused delivery, hood is on backorder now....yay.... 2.5" 95r style cowl.
will be removing spoiler. Planning on finding a markviii or cobra for the 4v motor, and finding a t45 for the car. Need a daily driver for the winter before getting the motor in...so the 6 will be staying in, until I find a good cheap beater. guess it will be going through a second snowy winter before swapping the motor.
btw, I'm from South Carolina. Moved to RI a year ago

That is pretty cool. There is a twin turbo v6 around my way and it pushes over 400rwhp..Sounds like a bag of shit but I have a video somewhere of it going mid low 11's in the 1/4

sweet V6!!! it is gonna look amazing whent the wheels and cobra bumper go on!

and just a thought, you might want to upgrade to a 8.8 from a GT before you swap in a T45 and the motor

Thanks yall.
oh yea, crap...and the list gets longer. lol.

and I hate the sound of a loud v6, never putting exhaust on the car until the motor is swapped. But thats awesome pushing 400 and in the 11s, cant really complain about that hah
