I did a little work to a coyote swapped new edge a couple years ago in my shop.

Thanks guys.....I had to put the whole left side on that car but the real trick was in the hood tho. It was designed to be a pin on style hood. So that took some trickery

X2 on all these. Looks damn good.
It's funny, the people who bash HioSSilver can't do a ¼ of the kind of work he does.
But dude..... seriously talk him into changing the color of that thing to something other than that god awful ford yellow. Banana's are yellow and they don't even look right yellow lol

They do need some work out of the factory, no doubt. They make vinyl dash kits and a bunch of other little things to enhance the appearance though.

The fact that there is such as huge aftermarket for these cars, all you have to do is think of something, and I am sure it is out there already.

Nice work Doug, the lines look factory. And that hood came out mint. Did he crash it at the track?

Damn, really nice work man! I applaud that skill for sure. Body work seems interesting, but a real pain in the ***.

Very nice work Doug. I am not a body guy myself. My brother and I had a hell of a time lining up the fenders on his 68 Camaro. After installing the TCI subframe kit on it, it really changed the rigidity of the chassis so everything changed. We had to get creative with shims.

the thing about mustangs is they are never short on appearance mods either.
