And here we have the dry fitting of the suspension components. This kit has some pretty obvious wheel placement and stance issues that have to be addressed. Maybe after I wake up.

Well with the interior done (bottom of previous page) I’m moving on to trying to get the stance in the ball park, clear parts and what not. I am not a fan of the factory Mustang fastback wheels but want a stock look. Hunted down some Kelsey and Hayes Magstars out of the stash and now I’m opening them up.

Mister.......you couldn't be any more correct with that statement. Mine needed some SERIOUS reworking to get the look I was after. Great work on the wheel selection and rework of them. Coming along very nicely on this one Kyle.

Well just as many of you, I have been ridiculously busy. But I do occasionally find time to get to the bench. I think I have these wheels and tires fitting close to where I want them. Oh and got the Kelsey Hayes Cobra knock offs painted up and also went with the black GT stripes.

Looks good to me, Kyle! Nice work! Thank you. More work went into the stance than anything else on this build. Lol. But I actually like the kit despite that.

Looks just like the one a coworker bought in 67 with a 351, I think. We used to race on the crop duster runway where we were both mechanics on N3N's. He would pull ahead at first but then my E-Type would move on by.

Looking great Kyle! Love the color. Thank you!! Super happy with the color choice too. This is coming along very nice. Great work. Thank you!! Second and third what has been said! Beautiful work! Appreciate it!! Looks just like the one a coworker bought in 67 with a 351, I think. We used to race on the crop duster runway where we were both mechanics on N3N's. He would pull ahead at first but then my E-Type would move on by. Now that’s good stuff. No doubt my little 289 version here wouldn’t be able to keep up with your E-type either. Lol

Very cool Kyle. They're the most authentic exhaust manifolds I've ever seen.

Never in my life have I seen manifolds that weren’t completely rusty so that was definitely the direction I wanted to go. This is coming together great Kyle! I really like the GT stripes on this Thank you very much! Thanks Lyle! If I’m a wizard i’m the least magical one yet. 🤣
