Added BMR TCA046 today. Car feels more planted on hard acceleration. Still on stock Pierelli's. A great complement to CB005. I don't plan on doing the lower bushings since it feels great as it is now.
G2 caliper paint
Ruby red matched G2 caliper paint. Removed all 4 calipers, cleaned and masked, then used Preval aerosol sprayer. Finished with high heat decals and 3 coats of VHT clear. I love the look. I overmasked the rears a little but, but can't tell unless I crouch down and look closely.
Added the GT350 Start Button. It looks very nice. It took 2 days to realized I made a small gouge on the trim while prying it out with a pick. Wish I either drilled out the center of the old button or did it the long way and took the dash apart. That thing required a lot more prying then I...
Awesome! I have Ruby Red and am considering 19x10 squared in graphite and your pic tells me its a good combo. I have the 5.0 and am considering changing the 5.0 emblem to magnetic, which has the black "dot" on it and then doing the front pony and decklid in the same finish to match. What do you...
I saw a user on Youtube loosened the bolt holding the GT350 box in place, removed the filter, then stuck his hand in the snorkel and worked it into alignment and then tightened the bolt. He basically said it fits if you make it fit. :)
Added the Ford Racing strut tower brace, MMD overflow tank cover, and Redline Hood Struts. Getting some small mods done before bigger ones later! Deleted the prop rod, too.
15 years as a DD, then race car after that or give it to the kid, who is 3 currently. In 15 years I will likely get a Shelby of some sort, maybe a GT350 or GT500 of the current era. I will see what is being made at that time as well. I wouldn't write off a classic like a '65 fastback either.
Sorry to dig up this old thread, but I am doing the color matched Ruby red G2 paint soon. i bought the Preval Aerosol spray on Amazon and it is designed to spray metallics like RR onto calipers and look way better than brushing it on. I plan to do a write-up and post it. I won't be doing it...
Did you mask off the letters on the valve covers? Looking to do this soon with Ruby Red pain from automotive touch up and black engine enamel with clear coat. Did you wet sand, polish, etc?
Same. I didn't have the PP on mine. I installed the Ford performance brace last week and can't really feel a big difference, even around street corners at decent speeds.
