Kev's dailydriver: 1998 Mustang

[CruizinKev]

Hi there,

this is my other car besides my 1979 Monte Carlo. My daily driven car - a 1998 Mustang V6. I just want to show you guys some pics of it..


this is what it looked like when I bought it december 2007 (crappy pics from the pre-owner)

the car had a true dual exhaust with dynomax mufflers and 3.5" tips.

I pulled off the ugly 18" rims and put the stock pony wheels on,

few weeks later some goodies arrived (smoked headlights, tokico HP blue struts, lowering springs, catback, B&M hammer shifter)

also some 19" wheels came in:

December 2008 my neighbour crashed into my car:

Her insurance paid good so we'll repaint the whole car. Color is "dark shadow grey" from Ford - it'll be just like this:

I just photoshopped my wheels on this pic :)

here some progress from last days:

[CruizinKev]

Nice SN95, any engine swap plans?

No not really. But I also thought about that. But I want to put all attention to my Monte Carlo - not the Mustang. I just have some Ford Racing 3.73 gears and t-lok for the rear end waiting for install.

[Motown 454]

Thats a nice color your using.

thx guys :twothumbs

Lookin good C-Kev!

The colour and the wheels look sweet!

I wonder if that is like the Cyber Gray Metallic (CGM) available for the 2010 Camaro?

Cheers,
Brian.

[CruizinKev]

Hm I dunno. Mine is Ford's "Dark Shadow Grey" (DSG).

nice man

[1971CHEVELLE]

very nice

[CruizinKev]

thx guys!

now I brought her home last wednesday.. already started to get everyting back on but also started to rain over here. I still need to paint some parts black to hide some red stuff (suspension stuff - you can see through the wheels the red frame things) but over all I think the car looks fn amazing!!

on first pic you can see the tiny car in the background - it's my car while the mustang isn't ready to drive LOL

very nice SN, DSG is my favorite color .... ready for an engine swap ?

[CruizinKev]

thx :) yeah I wish I could swap in a 4.6 V8 but not at the moment. All my $$ goes into my 79 Monte Carlo LS1/T56 Project :twothumbs

[bonecrrusher]

Needs a whipple powered modular motor!

[Ron.in.SoCal]

Love that color Kev!

[Z06killinSBF]

I love it!! Makes me want a nice 6er for a daily.

Only things I would change is maybe some wheel spacers in the rear (they look a little tucked in) and a Mach 1 chin spoiler (I think it would give the car a fuller/longer look to complement the deck spoiler)

[randywyatt2000]

she looks very nice

[FoxGranadaChuck]

thx :) yeah I wish I could swap in a 4.6 V8 but not at the moment. All my $$ goes into my 79 Monte Carlo LS1/T56 Project.


A 4.6 3V swap would be REALLY sweet.....

[Capown]

Love love love the color combo!! i have a 97 black on black Cobra Vert and im really wanting this color or the Graphite color off my old 05 dodge truck, just a tad darker.

[CruizinKev]

thx guys! yeah like said a v8 swap would be awesome! i'll get some spacers for the rear soon - but at the moment my small pocket money goes into my 79 monte project :twothumbs :)
