Like the wheels, they'd look great tucked a little closer to those fender wells. Awesome car.

Wow 94 was a cool year! I own a 99 formula and I
like the smooth styling of your car much better assuming
there is no custom work.

Definately a nice looking car but needs lowered about and inch and a half. Then it would have that super aggressive stance to it. Also, paint your calipers to match the car and maybe think about ground effects. Just my .02 Still looks good tho, great job.

I don't think the front end looks too bad but the rear needs brought down to level it up. Great looking car but definitly slam it.

Thanks guys, I pulled the old rear out and put another rear with 3.42's and relocation brackets already welded to the housing while I was in there, I pulled the spring isolators and wrapped the top coil with 5/8" heater hose. The drop is perfect, front and rear gaps are even now.

Well that's no too many miles off my guess I have a buddy who lives near the Clermont park, and from your pics they look very similar.

I agree that it needs to be lowered. My 99 is the same color.

American Racing Rebels is what they are.

It needs lowered - and I hope those second set of pics aren't the "lowered" pics because it looks like a Mustang.
