Just amazing!

I wish you lived by me, you can have an 84 Camaro as your next project car (lol)

your car looks great and it looks like the body shop did a very nice job on it too. are you gonna go with some bigger wheels in the near future or keep it classy?

the wheels on it now are universal lug 15x8 Cragars. They're just there so I don't have to worry about getting paint all over them etc.
I have a set of ARE TorqueThrust II polished aluminum rims in the same style.
15x10 in back for 295/60/15 drag radials on a shortened Dana 60 rear end, and 15x8 fronts with 235/60/15 street tires, and a set of skinnies on front drag wheels for the strip up front I can throw in the trunk for trips to the track.
It'll look about the same as it does now, but shinier wheels, and bigger in back.

nice car... I thought about stripping down the mustang and doing a complete restore, but I'm going to do it one piece at a time. This winter I'm getting the interior, suspension and brakes in tip-top shape... Then this spring I want to pick up a gt 40 x engine to build, then next winter do the drive train.
