Few parts I'm still looking for to get the must-stain on the road.
Front shocks
rear 5 lug axles and drums
full length subframe connectors (has to be full length I'm afraid I'll fall through the floor)
5 lug rims and tires
Robs already helped out with springs and rear shocks. If anybody can help out let me know.
Thanks Chris

http://www.americanmuscle.com/bbk-subfr ... -7993.html This is marked down and free shipping. FYI Loren said welded in subframes will bounce us out of Stock class so these are okay. The best ones are crazy expensive.
When you sell this car in 7 months you can sell the rails to me cheap:)
Sounds like you need a $200 donor car for that other stuff. All the wrecked foxbodies in Hernando County were sent to the crusher years ago. Start looking in fields.

Chris, I split your post out of Rob's thread. Your parts discussion is not relevant to his project.

I have purchased several items from this guy in Hudson. Has mostly fox body stuffs. Fair pricing, not cheap. Search him on CL. He usually has a dozen or more posts.
I also have a lot of other Very Nice Aftermarket mustang parts ,
Copy and paste my phone # in the tampa bay area Craigslist search bar 352 584 1523 to see all my listings
Good Luck.
I have a set (5) 16" pony wheels I can let go.

I've actually got some spare 5 lug axles, unfortunately they are still in NC, I'll probably be there for Thanksgiving in a couple months if you can wait that long.

Les, I am looking for an 8.8, hopefully with 3:55 or 3:73 gearsets and disc brakes. What do you have?

I just have the axles, I could potentially get them here the first week of October.

No SN95, though I don't know if there is a difference, splines perhaps?

I have a set of bolt on genuine Ford convertible subframe connectors, not as trick as the aftermarket ones , I wish you had mentioned that when you were here.

just a little update got just about everything I need just need some time to bang it all together. I'm hoping to make an event in the next month or 2. I've been trying to decide if I want to move to a race tire class has any one run the Nitto NT01 tires?

NT01s are ok - what is your priority, grip or longevity?
Also - I have not posted them for sale yet but I have a set of four used 265/40-17 Dunlop Direzza Z1s - at least 4/32nd tread remaining, even wear and plenty of heat cycles left - if you can use them I don't mind discounting them some more for a good cause and getting them to you sometime soon. They are on 17x9.5 wheels right now.
