I was planning to sell the motor and trans out of the parts car but I'm SO tempted to put it in mine..

fancy tubular GT40 intake manifold and larger throttle body

Ford Racing rocker covers

You can JUST see the stainless steel headers in this one

Its also got a t5 manual transmission which would be cool. With a Pro 5.0 short shifter that feels really nice....

Plus all round Koni adjustable shocks..

Yeah but it still crashed

Those wheels do look good, simple but very effective

EDGE · September 22, 2008, 01:11:38 PM

i much prefer the lights too, the cheese grater ones aren't exactly pretty !

Rocky · September 22, 2008, 03:58:08 PM

Are you using the rear quarter windows?

EDGE · September 22, 2008, 04:08:18 PM

indeed i am sir...

Im busy hoarding a huge pile of parts that will go on after you've painted it. There's no point me putting it all on now only to have to take them off so you can paint it..

I have a new windscreen surround, cowl, front trims, wing mirrors and a whole bunch of other bits.

Im ordering some new headlights, new rear lamp casings and one lens, new weather stripping and door trims.. oh.. the list is endless..

I had a call from the soda basting guy too, he's now got a yard in essex and so I can go to him and hi will do all the kit SUPER cheap !!!

Fieldy · September 22, 2008, 05:14:02 PM

so is there any car left for other people to take off it?!

EDGE · September 22, 2008, 06:05:46 PM

well... thats looking like the problem at the moment.... !!!!!!

One wonders how much you have actually spent on this "cheap" car

EDGE · September 23, 2008, 05:38:32 AM

its still cheap really, seeing as by the time im finished it will probably owe me £4.5k... and thats all resprayed, engine tinkled with a little bit, the new wheels etc... they got for £5k mint so I'm ok. Plus i still have what's left of the parts car to sell on top of that.

What about the ruddy Saleen

EDGE · September 23, 2008, 09:16:14 AM

lol... thats a work in progress... i know what im doing with that so i'm happy with it...

but thats another thread...

EDGE · September 23, 2008, 09:16:56 AM

I'm positive actually that it pi55es you lot off me NOT driving it more than it concerns me....

EDGE · September 24, 2008, 09:47:39 AM

hmmmm....

Uh-oh, you're starting to sound like someone else I know who's got a car in bits with no end in sight.

That fact's are the same, though - it's another non-Chevy, so it doesn't really matter anyway.

HardRockCamaro · September 24, 2008, 10:16:01 AM

That *is* a nice bumper.

Fieldy · September 24, 2008, 10:16:52 AM

looks nice with clean lines, would look 100x's better in black too, but what's wrong with the current bumper?

HardRockCamaro · September 24, 2008, 10:48:06 AM

The stock GT one isn't nice.

Too deep.

Pod · September 24, 2008, 10:52:25 AM

That's exactly the bumper I'd like for mine.
Not cheap though, and I haven't even looked into shipping one yet.

its is true though isn't it.... all i ever hear is "when are you gonna do the saleen... aren't you meant to drive it.. blah blah blah....." i mean, yeah, its a car that was made to be driven, but if im not winging about it not being done why should it bother anyone else... I i was always saying "i really ant to finish is, i want to drive it now" or whatever then fine.. but im not....

not directed at you personally by the way... it just makes my dick itch !!!!

There's nothing wrong with the current bumper really, an i bet all sprayed up it would look great, but the rear seems to sqwar if thats even possible....

it's like this one currently..

Fieldy · September 24, 2008, 10:59:40 AM

i think it looks ok to be honest, but that's just my opinion, for the money spent, i wouldn't bother, even though i think it looks nice....

(side note, when the hell did i make 'filthy ho'?!)

EDGE · September 24, 2008, 11:27:59 AM
