No Firehawk..but some of my work!

Post by 223Hawk » Sun Feb 20, 2011 10:09 am

About 3 years ago, my parents bought a car from a highschool friend. It was a 1996 GT Mustang. 4.6, 5 Speed. The car needed some work, and my little sister wanted a Mustang.. :roll: Anyway, she is in highschool about to graduate in May...Well this is her gift from my parents. We didnt go crazy and pull the motor for the color change, but it was a cheap and fun project that I did. For Chirstmas she got a cowl hood, and some other cool stuff. Now with all the parts, it was up to me to finish it. She had no clue what the colors were going to be, my dad and I thought and thought for weeks. One day on Speed TV I watched the "Power Block" and they build a Magnaflow Mustang for Foose..Well we both loved the look, so thats kinda how we came up with the colors. I cant say it was all me but I did all the work. The only thing I havent done to the car is pick out the wheels. (I suggested 18s all the way around) She needs emblems and get the car to pass state inspection and shes ready to cruise!!

Seems like alot of work for a mustang .... Now my question is, you said it wouldn't pass inspection without badges ?? I didn't think we needed any stinking badges!

I think he needs badges AND inspection, not badges FOR inspection.
