| Well, heres the stang...still tranny-less sitting in the driveway:
But some good news. I just picked up a little 'beater' to drive around. It's a 1994 Ford Explorer. It has 173,xxx miles. Auto, 4x4. This older lady who works with my dad let me have it at a steal ($1500). I could easily sell it for $3k-$4k. It is extremely clean, and I already pretty much fixed it up as much as I want to. I put a new Fram filter in, new plugs, new oil, black floormats, and a cheap little JVC headunit. Other than that, this car will just lug me around until I can get the stang up and running:
Hopefully by the end of this year I can order the tranny/blower cams and get the stang ready to see the road in 09.

| thanks a lot man...as to the rims/tires:
I used to run 18x9 saleen rims all around wrapped in Kumho Ecsta MX (245/40/18 front, 275/40/18 rear). I now run the same setup in the front, but in the rear I use 18x10 saleens wrapped in MT ET street radials (315/30/18)
