Pro Stars, Mickeys, & '99 Atlantic Blue GT

[JSZ03]

Just picked this GT up from a friend in December as a nice weather driver....'99 Atlantic Blue GT w/ some bolt-ons, 4.30s, and tune.....was not looking for anything at the time, but the price was right.....Planning to do a Terminator swap at some point this fall and into 2013, as funds permit.....

Just purchased a set of Weld Pro Stars and tires, as I am going to "attempt" to hit 12.99 w/ it this year....previous best was a 13.34 @ 104 mph last year at Cecil....since this time, I have done a rear seat delete, removed all the sound deadener & speakers, added 4.30 gears, a UPR shifter, and the lighter 15" wheels.

With the new gears, it pulls very nice and is fun to drive...happy that I bought it when it came up for sale, as this color is one you do not see all the time....

Wheels are 15x3.5 w/1.25 BS in the front, and 15x10 w/6.5 BS in the rear....275/60/15 Mickey's cleared with H&R springs, BBK control arms, and no fender lip rolling :burnout:

I'd lose the Cobra badges but regardless that car is sick as hell! I love that color.

Nice ride. I like it. Everyone is going to tell you to remove the Cobra emblems though.

 

[JSZ03]

of course, the emblems are bound to set someone off....I knew that going in

Was that Bob's? Looks good.

 

[JSZ03]

yeah, Uncle Bob's.....he got another couple rides and sold me this one pretty cheap.... 12.99s or bust (literally) this spring

atlantic blue might be my second favorite ford color behind bright atlantic. i love your car, but ditch the cobra badges.

seems like the next mod will be, as per public request, new GT emblems

Do what makes you happy not the svtp badge patrol :beer:

 

[JSZ03]

having owned a few Cobras, I can see how they might make some people upset....but hey, to each their own....I didn't put them on, but like them.....even if it causes uproar lol

Good deal. Good luck.

I think 12.99 is realistic with a good 60 ft.

She should have 12's in her.

I put 4.30's in my old '03 GT. They're definitely a lot of gear for a car that's out of breath so quick but the shifting was definitely managable.

I am doing Hi-Tech Stage IIs sometime this summer/early fall, so with the gears and a new tune, it should make for a fun car....currently makes 255/298 or something close to that, as per the former owner...
