Main Reason I want to do this is to prove I can do it and so that the win is that much better, and with the win it will help me get ahead more so I can provide more for my twin 12 year old daughters and start building there rides for when they turn 16, I can say allot about my life here but not into the pitty party I wanna do this and kick ass while I am doing it!
About me goes here---->I am a 35 year old who has done just about every aspect of building and working on a car. I have painted and restored a classic 55 Cad for a friend of mine, I have built numerious mustangs, worked on several local race teams built them from the ground up as well. I have a pic of my old 89 fox body mustang loaded in my pics and although I dont have it any longer it was still considered my first born. I built it from the ground up and did everything from the motor/exhaust to the paint and body. I now pass my knowledge on to the younger generation of mustang builders in my area showing them how to do things and having fun while doing it. It is something I take pride in and enjoy and hope that my daughters continue to show interest in my skill and trade. Amoung my little group of youngsters out here I have earned the title " The Mad Scientist" and it is based on the fact that reguardless of the situation I always figure out ways to fix things kind of like MacGyver. I now own my 2002 Mustang GT and enjoy taking the time to make it different. I have done subtle modifications to is so far as follows.
I have swapped the solid 8.8 real axle to a 03 Cobra Independant Rear Suspension set up, Upgraded the brakes as well to that found on and 03 Cobra, Lowered the vehicle with Eibach springs and am getting ready to add Energy Suspension coponents, I also have added a Vortech 130sq Supercharger system to add roughly 125 hp, I have also added 18" front and rear Ford FR500 wheels, and in the interior I have swapped the dash door and quarter panels with a charcoal grey set out of a Mach 1, added guages out of a 2001 cobra and added the dual center pod with AutoMeter guages. I have othier subtlties added as well. But I just wanted to show some of the stuff I have done in the last 6 mos to the car. I am eager to do more as well but am kinda trying to decide on what else I want to do. So with all that said I am a very easy going guy if you have any questions or need help with something feel free to ask, I never turn my back to a fell car guy or gal! Talk to you all soon!
