Ok cool thanks. I wish they still made those tires.

Do you not have the original tires for your car? I'd think one with super low mileage like yours you would. Thankfully an old man was the original owner of my car so it still wore the original tires with plenty of tread.

Yea still have the original tires but I'm getting ready to replace them. They have plenty of tread left but Since they are getting so old I want to replace them for safety purposes. I just wish they still made that same tire so I could keep the originality of it.

Good idea. My car got new tires immediately after getting home as I didn't trust 10yr old tires. The original are down in the basement.

Very nice. The stance is dead on too.
Nice to see another Eaton car. Mine has a Posi port & 505 RWHP is just right for that car. Sounds great.
Your paint looks to be in great shape, that's a plus.
Subbing for what you do next!

I bought a nice '92 Vermillion Red on black tweed coupe today. I've been itching for a clean one since I sold my last Bimini Blue coupe a couple years back. This one fit the bill. Needs a little bit of TLC, but she's a good one to start with. Should be receiving it next week.

Yes, lowering springs, 17" pony R wheels, and some basic bolt on stuff. Cobra intake, exhaust, 4.10's. I'm thinking I might throw a little vortech on it and some 3.55 gears and just scoot around with that setup.

Would love a 408ci setup. As soon as I saw this car it reminded me of a guy that used to post on here that had a red notch with chrome 18" roush wheels and a 408 he also had a turbo setup at one point. If I remember right he was up north in B.C.

That would be a fun street car. That one in the video is sick. Congrats clean pickup.

Did a couple little things today. This decklid emblem has bugged me since I first saw the car. I finally took it off and replaced with a new emblem that I got at the dealership.

I took off my wipers and covered up the knobs with some chair end covers I picked up at ACE for $1.79. Money well spent, never drive in the rain. 1" fits perfect BTW.

On Friday I got my vanity plate switched over to this car. I first got it for my VR/black 93 Cobra then I had it on my SY 04 now it's most appropriate on this current Cobra. Put the old 93 plate frame on it to dress it up a bit.

Looks good! I definately prefer the ford over the fast emblem. That plate frame is hard to find now.

I went to a local show yesterday, great turnout and tons of cool cars.

A buddy of mine came over this past week and blacked out my windows. They look great with the top up. Sharpie marker dark...

Also, I've got some custom retrofits being built. Got a teaser shot sent to me this evening...
