Wow, thanks for the update. I’m sad to hear this as they really do look great. As you stated that’s a lot of cash to put out not only the first time but to do it again. I’m with Farkel above get the replacements and reinstall the originals. Then hopefully you can sell the replacements and recoup...

I have been fixing airplanes since I was 18. Have been an A&P rated AMT since 91. In one of my positions I was a Quality Assurance Inspector. One of my jobs was to collect PME(calibrated tools) and send them to the Cal lab. One guy turned in a bunch of Harbor Freight stuff. I asked the cal lab...

Plenty of 3157 LED bulbs on Amazon in the $15-$20 range.

Anthony, I bought this for my 16’ GT PP a few months after I bought the car. I have only used it once on the rear axle. It seemed to work fine. At one time they were located in Raleigh and I drove down to pick it up. It does seem silly that the car never came with a spare. That ‘s common...

Well damn! Go ahead and send one over, somebody has to put it through the wringer. Might as well be me. Better send a few dozen sets of tires too. I do like the front end better than the 24’, that’s a huge plus. Should be a lot of fun and sounds good too.

Try muscle cars by Drake Shelby GT spoilerI have one on mine.

Let’s see, Auto start and stop is a deal breaker for me. I despise that in new cars. The interior layout of the 550 is laid out more to my liking. Updated yet classic. I can do without the giant video screens. I’m driving not playing tetris. The rear end looks tubby and camaroish if I wanted a...

My 99’ F-250 SD 4x4 with 7.3 and ZF-6. I have owned it since about mile 20. I was told it was the first SD4x4 in California . It has a list of mods that I have done to it.

I ended up bringing my car to get templated last month. He has a nice setup in his garage. I saw the work he did on both his car and a GT-350 he had onsite. I have no doubt that he will do a great job on the S-550’s. I’m Now just patiently awaiting the final fitting and finished product. I’m...

My 96’ and 08’

Fyi the Goodguys show is this weekend at the Raleigh fairgrounds Friday-Sunday

I contacted them earlier today. I’m not far at all.

Greensboro, Charlotte or Winston Salem? Which colleseum?

Looks great to me, can’t stand the black wheels myself. They make a car look cheap. Back in my day if you couldn’t afford nice wheels you painted the stock steel wheels black. Wheels should be admired not blend into the tires like you are trying to hide them.

Did everyone see that the Hot Rod power tour is coming through Rockingham and Concord June 14 and 15? It came through Raleigh a few years back and it was a rolling car show. Definitely worth seeing.

As it sits today

I tried I tried those, meticulously cleaned the coil covers after paint, put gloves on and cleaned with isopropyl alcohol. I then applied them and let them sit overnight. The next day used clear coat to seal them. They lasted about 2 years and started bubbling up. Before Mustang Week this year...

I live in NC, land of the Southern pine. I know acetone will take off pine tree sap. My Super Duty F-250 has had this done to remove tree sap many times. The key is as previously mentioned dampen the cloth and use sparingly do not get the rag wringing wet and bathe the car in acetone. You will...
