Do we still own stangs?

[AnthonyS]

I picked up a neglected F body and am going to build a drag and drive car out of it. It won’t be fast enough to win squat, but it’ll be fun.

[Juiced4v]

Have an 04 GT DSG....daily my 15 F150 5.0

[GhostTX]

Still have the '05. 148K miles now.

Good, is it running?

Unfortunately not.

[matts5.0]

I have this.

[bird_dog0347]

Still have the stang after all of these years.

Yeah, I was setting it up like I was ditching it but spilled the beans here early. Stangnet still doesn't know and thinks it is just gone.

You had me going. He's pretty good about documentation & pictures. Hopefully there will be plenty of that as the work gets started on yours. It would be cool to see

I misunderstood and thought you sold it. Glad to see that K and K will be doing this over for you. He does fantastic work and will completely transform this into something that you may not want to drive for fear of a scratch. Excellent news!

This place will always have stang on the name just like 7-11 will always be called 7-11.

Yeah, and I'm also leaving time to save more money if we find other problems or if plans change here and there... I'm told it should be under $15k for all of it, but I always bet the over on this type of thing. I've got the $15k set aside for it, but who knows. They also have many customers and are never slow... I've been on the wait list to get in since last May.

Check out how he did his own personal T-Top conversion and the OCD type work in one of his threads here (he has like 23ish personal Mustangs of this caliber or in the works to get there). https://www.stangnet.com/mustang-for...h-build.918378

I'm still rocking my 2013. Turned 150k the other day. 2 Waterpumps and a couple hoses and that is it. Most reliable vehicle I've ever owned and it has the Ford Racing Cam tune as well. What a great platform! Capturecandy.jpg

They do some top quality work there as evident by their pics. That Coyote swapped Fox is kick ass!

I can understand letting primer cure, but the newer catalyzed primer surfacer and sealers don't require that kind of curing time, unless they are using the older lacquer based primer, but I didn't think they made that anymore.
Eh, I've been out if the collision repair business for almost 10 years, but I do know that shrinkage on metal work that requires lots of plastic work (bondo fillers) does need to sit for a number of days.
Hard to argue when you see their work tho and you sending it across the country speaks volumes.
I can't wait to see it when it gets back.

The time frame is more about letting the primer fully cure for 6-10 months as well before the paint goes on it as it will shrink as it cures and can make the paint on top look bad after a few years if done too soon. That and they are pretty busy too, but you can check out the quality of work by looking up K and K Mustangs on facebook or the gram.

Very nice, that estimated time is about right, most shops have a "Get to it" area that they address when the shop gets slow. Though that looks like a nice project and I can't wait to see the finished product.
