I have finally found me another coupe. I sold my first one and have regretted it since that day. Currently I have a '93 Hatch and I'm not satisfied with it. Going to swap everything from the hatch to the coupe minus the wiring harness.

Looks good!

I am building an 89 with a 5.4 4v heads and SW headers.

Of course, like you, I forgot to get Zack's permission first, but I am sure we will have a good time with these cars, so keep us updated with pictures and such!

That hatch looks nice, does it have a factory sunroof?

I will. It will probably be a couple of weeks before I start on it. Waiting on my buddy to finish up on on a few cars.

Yes. It was a 4 cylinder car and we swapped everything out of a 1992 GT. It now has has a built 347 with a tko 3550 behind it. Run 11.70's on lowered suspension at 121 mph

Next time you are at the shop you need to come by my home shop as well.

Most definitely. I guess the next time I'm going to be there is the dyno day

I don't think calling that a shop is quite the correct term, a car guys dream is a touch more accurate....:beer:

Sweet. I've had an 88 notch for 12 years. Mine is charcoal grey. Built it from the ground up. Wish you the best of luck with it.

That is a well earned compliment, your house is very nice, but I would choose to sleep in the garage out back, it has that WOW factor going for it.:bows:
