Default 2000 Mustang GT suspension/appearance mods

2000 Mustang GT, Bright Atlantic Blue (1 of 4979 in this color), 125k miles.










**NOTE: AUTOMETER CLUSTER NO LONGER IN CAR. WAS REPLACED WITH MACH 1 CLUSTER.**



Original untouched engine. Trans/clutch has ~15k miles. Rear end (gears, diff, axles) has ~25k miles. Power lock actuators and trunk struts replaced at 100k miles, everything else works great (windows, AC, etc).

MM C/C Plates
UMI Lower Control Arms
--Installed ~110k miles
Stainless Steel Brakelines (front)
1999 Cobra Brake calipers, new Brembo blanks w/ Hawk HPS pads front/rear
(Note: I changed the spare over to the larger Cobra spare to clear these brakes.)
1999 Cobra swaybar

Exhaust
Bassani catback
Bassani O/R X

Interior
2004 Cobra Seats
2003 Cobra style shift ****
1999 GT pony floormats
Mach 1 gauge cluster w/ blue LED lighting
2001 Cobra seat belts
10th ann. Cobra steering wheel
2003 Mach 1 side emblems
Corbeau harness bar

Audio

Mach 1000 sub box, pass. side (uninstalled, no sub)

Exterior
Cervini's 3.5" cowl hood
2001 Cobra Bumper
2001 Cobra Foglights
2001+ Side Scoops
2003 Cobra folding mirrors
2003 Cobra sideskirts

Tires: 245 f / 315 r BFG KD's ~80% life left
Fore black aluminum side scoop inserts
Tinted taillights
35% door windows, 5% rear and 1/4 windows. Rear window should be redone because it didn't adhere properly to the dot matrix and there was no way I was letting those guys near my car again to fix it.
Rolled rear fenders

Uninstalled but included:
2003 Cobra rear bumper (currently yellow)
2003 Cobra spoiler w/ NIB brake light (currently black)
2003 Mach 1 sail panels w/ 1/4 windows (currently azure blue)

Front bumper needs to be repainted. Some light scratching on the rear fenders (long story, tint shop guy wore a belt) and the rear bumper has light damage from a hit and run, but I'm including an '03 rear bumper that needs to be painted and installed.

Damage to front bumper (hit and run)


Damage to rear bumper (hit and run)



Car was in a minor accident about 2 years ago; I ran into some wild pigs driving home from work one morning. All repair work was done by Jordan Ford in San Antonio. The front bumper and driver's side door were replaced, I supplied a used Cobra bumper and the dealership provided a new OEM door skin. Damage was cosmetic only. All new panels were blended with surrounding panels to ensure a total paint match, and you can not tell any work was done. (other than the obvious change in bumper.) The hood was replaced at this time, although not because of any damage. The work came with a warranty, but I don't think it's transferable.

I have over $12,000 invested in this car. It handles like it's on rails; I've tracked it at Texas World Speedway around 3 times and every instructor I've had has been very impressed with the responsiveness and capability of the car.

Asking $10k w/ the uninstalled exterior pieces listed.
