crites performance parts http://tiptopwebsite.com/websites/in...olson43&page=5. this place had a ton of falcon and comet parts. and I remember reading that you were wanting to get more fiberglass parts...

I have a crites hood. And fiberglass fenders from unlimited products and front valance. The only thing left is a trunk lid. I might be getting that from crites at some point in the future!

Thanks for the link.

I have always heard good things about their quality but unfortunately I have not heard anything anything good about there shipping times lately. I might need a hood next year so I was thinking of ordering one. I do like their new and improved website.

edit: I see their "upcoming shows" section is a year old so I guess it is not so new now.

Here are some updated pics. I got my new tires. Big thanks to Drivers Inc. they got me a great price. The fronts are falken azenis 245/45/17.

[Bryce]

Is he still a dealer because I would like to order one?

I dont think he is a dealer anymore.

Good luck getting your crites hood. I hope there are no issues for you.

I just decided to buy the rear wheels 17x9.5 with 6.5" BS. Got a package deal from centerline so I took the chance on them fitting.

I really like those tires. I looked at them when I bought mine but they didn't have my sizes then.

Im only going with a 275 in the back so these tires should work great. Im going to put them on my 95 mustang to get a baseline and see how they work.

[Bryce]

Craig,

Thanks, the falcons are a great starting point. The light weight is a bonus!

[LowBuckX]

Looking good Been following this since the start...

[Bryce]

Thanks!

I will have some good updates next week. The rest of my 3-link parts are being delivered. i am guessing about 4-6 weeks for the 3-link to be complete.

no problem!! im a chevy guy thru and thru but i like the looks of these cars alot. what do you plan on doing for paint

Hey Craig,

If you're interested in a '66 Fairlane there's an original 289/3-speed car available for sale in my neighborhood (NorCal). It needs quarter panels but the rest of the car, from what I can see, looks solid.

My wife told me to buy it (believe it or not) but I don't need another project right now.

Probably paint the front end to match the rest of the car. Then paint the whole thing 2010 mustang grabber blue.

Bob,

I think you need to buy it!

Lemme tell you, it's been REALLY tempting! I'd love to put a big inch SBF in it with a set of the rims we were talking about earlier.

I've got a side project in the works right now and if that comes through as hoped I'll have a little extra $$ and might just do it.

Damn, now you got me actually considering it! Glad you're not my neighbor, I'd be in deep s*%t!

I will be watching your progress with great interest.

[Bryce]

Yep,

Thanks again.

[TCI Engineering]

I was being a little vague in my post as to not let the cat out of the bag. I truly hope it works out for you, maybe others will follow your lead.
