Default Before and After pics of the daily driver

First don't laugh I know its a Stang but I got it on a trade from my friend for an Explorer I had . The first pic is when I first got it and the rest are the after pics. Now it just needs a lil LSX power! By the way if you see me on the street don't pick on me the **** is slow .

Thanks for the kind words guys. It's a v6






























J/K
But by how slow it is one might confuse it for a six banger .

Rob I'm still messing with the Z. I'm having LME build me a solid roller 408 with ET C5R heads, sheetmetal intake and big shot of dope. Hopefully it will be ready in a couple more months.
