my new lights-- on the first pic, the lights were to high to fit in the garage so i got a bracket that dropped it down about 1.5''. now i can stay inside.
BTW, got my 3'' body lift in my room, so that will go on soon when its time for bigger tires. Also got my flowmaster with the dump infront of the rear axle. sounds good and gave some nice power back.

That looks good to me I know I am going to feel really dumb when You answer this, but......Whats the pipe that runs across the engine bay for?
 






i had to cut out my upper shock mounts to fit the bigger shocks. The hoops go up into the bay then that brace goes across to distrbute the load as the shocks move.
 






I knew I would feel dumb. Thanks for clearing that up. It looks like its where the shock tower braces are I have seen on mustangs (clue huh? :rolleyes: )

I wish I had all those tools to work with at home. I have some, but not enough. keep up the good work. :thumbsup:
 






looks great. you going to do the SOA in the future? i suppose your going for the pre-runner look though.

looks very very nice!
 






No SOA. By end of June will be Camburg 6.0 (pickin it up this weekend), LT deaver leafs, glass, new tires, and gears. I love my car.

I just finished fabrication in the garage. I am dirty. :thumbsup:
