I am just happy I finally got some pictures up lol and Mach1Club gave the site for what he uses to resize them so I dont have to bug him every time lol but there will be more to come soon probably before this weekend..... I am going to clean her up even more and go to a car show this weekend since i have not been to one in a while and see how i do.... plus got some more parts yesterday to include new brakes (rotors / pads) to give me the stopping power to accommodate the new power i will get pics of before and afters lol

There is nothing like seeing your vision of a ride becoming a reality to help bring a smile to the face!
That is part of the pleasure of ownership and free expression.
Looking forward to the continued updates.

OH BOY !!!!!!!!!! man the car feels great !!! clutch is soooooo smooth and man she gets up ..... but there is a 500 mile break in period on the new rear end so im not gonna get on it too bad but man I cant wait for that run once its broke in to see the difference between stock and now
but its even more of a pleasure to drive now everything was serviced from the motor, tranny, rear diff, you name it along with the new parts !!!
Up next will be brakes install then suspension and i will be lowering the car exactly 1.2" to give it a slightly more aggressive look
I will be taking lots of pictures at the car show this Saturday and if i find any other Mach 1's ill definitely get some pics of them too and invite them to the site !!!
For those in the area >>>> This car show proceeds go to support Diabetes and thats one heck of a good cause!!!
