page 1  pics and info

page 2 old motor pics

page 3 pics of my other svt contours , some projects , and a few awards

 

 i am the original owner.factory color was T-red. car has extremely low miles and has only seen rain one time . everything done to this car is with the absolute best materials and craftsmanship , and also is the only svt contour with 90 degree vertical doors, i have a ton of hrs. into the fab. to make them operate properly.there is no direct kit for this platform so alot of modification to the hinges, fenders and jambs were needed. the jambs and doors have been reinforced as well .they work perfect.

because of the limited build numbers of these most everything is custom made due to  lack of aftermarket
