Just to let you all know, I don't baby this car! It's too much fun to just look at, I love to beat on it too. Nothing has gone wrong, and if it ever does...its the perfect reason to build it better! It is however very clean and well maintained, I believe that's very important obviously!

This engine consists of:
-Brand new 4.6 steel block

-used timing cover

Both pics taken at Grand Haven State Park, summer `07.

Thank you for looking at my page. I bought the Mustang wrecked in October `04, hit in the front and lightly rolled over with a clean title. My dad and I re-built the car the way we wanted it and I started driving it in summer `05. We started with making the car a real head turner first, I wanted something totally badass looking. Then moved to bolt-on parts one after another, and finally I'm planning to have an engine built for it! I have funded the whole thing, not my dad, but I have however took full advantage of my dad's talent in body work. THE ART OF INVISIBLE REPAIR! Was this car ever smashed, you tell me?

The body of the car has an APC Demon body kit, Cervinis hood and side scoops, and lambo doors. The whole car was repainted with stock Ford Performance Red. The car is lowered 2.7" in the back with Eibach Sportline springs, and about 2.5" in the front with a Granatelli coilover kit, tubular A-arms and K-member. I added aftermarked headlights/taillights, a billet grill, and stainless insert letters (all from eBay)! 18x9/18x10 Chrome Saleen look-alike rims are wrapped in BFGoodrich KDW tires. I'm always open for new ideas for this car, but the next major upgrade will be the engine. Since I'm only working with 281CID, a blower and cams will be my best bet to make big HP.

I've done a few car shows around Grand Rapids and done pretty well. Most recent is the GR Autorama. My favorite is the All Ford and Mustang show in the spring, it's awesome to see all those glamorous Mustangs all in one place. The car has been pretty much all show since I've started it, but that'll change this year when that motor is built!!
