Hey guys

Just wanted to drop a couple of lines about what currently resides in my shop..

The first car i bought is a 65 mustang coupe. engine si a 93, 5.0 efi that is soon to be turbo'ed (doing most myself) but paint and assembly id first... the suspension is prety straight forward, full polyurethane, 620 lb/in font coils, 500 lb/in rear leafs hung in racing shackles, front sway bar is 1-1/8'', rear is 3/4''. quickened steering ratio and relocated upper controll arms, shocks are KYB gas-adjust, tires are dunlop formula 2 tires, soft, sticky and stiff in 215/55x15

the second one is my 66, impala SS brought hom efrom the states, ikt is still in original paint (not very prety, prety much rust, and 100% backyard-mecanic-repair free) im not far along in the project yet, for now its a close to stock, albeit with 12 inch front discs, polyurethane bushings, 12 inch posi 3.36 ratio, ls5 454, 700r4 tranny, and a hydraboost.. (id love to end up with a Heavy Metal II clone type car)

and lastly the is my newest baby, a 32 ford roadster. frame is a fully boxed detroit stamping frame, with loadbearing crossmember (ill post pics) suspension is full independent, TCI front suspension, rear is shortened jaguar IRS with homebuilt crossmember (ill tell anyone who cares to listen how to shorten and mount one of these amazing, and cheap, rears).. engine is a kinsler/enderle electronic stack fuel injected 1970-LS7 big block (electromotive tec3) with aftermarket alluminum heads and sandersson headers. the jury is still out on the tranny but im leaning towards a shfter shifted GM/Ford AOD-e hybrid. ill need a lot of small pointers on getting this one to handle like a Le Mans Panoz ;-)

anyway those are my projects...
