well my car is about 50 miles away from 50,000 miles and it time for a winter update, inside and out. started out with a pi3500 stall convertor self installed with the help of some cam members :beer:. the next stage will be this huge pile of parts.

also since half the motor will be apart ill be installing an even flow kit. and while we are down it will also be getting set of stainless steel brake lines an probably painted calipers.

the rear tires will be widened and given a custom color. tire choice is still undecided. and i hope to as well get this set of tail lights and reverse lights s55 treated. 4 inch tips will also be added.

the interior will get a total of 5 new gauges along with hope fully some custom floor mats.

there will be more pics as i / we go along :beer:

Well i figured that much, Jeeesh! I've never had anything powder coated and didn't know if you could just tell them ford blue or if you had to do some kind of a color match.:beer:

Dave, how much did it cost to get the valve covers powder coated if you don't mind me asking.

Shoot me a PM if you don't want to write it here.
