ThatOneEuro30- do you mean you wouldn't change a thing? ;)

I also actually thought of adding black door pullers/ pockets. Maybe I should test my black set from my coupe. Also, yes I do have the H&R sports in the back. Could it just look a ton lower because the rear fender arch?

Lol yes wouldn't. except the motor. I'm not a fan of m20's haha

The newest addtion to the collection

I do have the stock rear pads installed as well. I think I'm going to order thicker rear spring pads to raise it up a bit, such as the ones here:

I'll just have to measure and see how much I want to raise it.

Rear is really low.

Car looks great.

The black seats with white cards is good. I say do not do the black door pulls and pockets. Too much stuff going on then.

No, that seems abnormally low. Do you still have the stock spring pads installed? If not, ad them back in. If they're already there, double up on them. You can also remove that 50lb weight from the trunk on the passenger side.

Thumbs up for white on black

Wow, what a score! You've done a fantastic job bring her back, nice work. The rear seems very low, are you running the H&R springs back there too? Something looks fishy, H&Rs shouldn't ride that low.

Very nice car!
I like the white on black, especially with the black hard top.
Maybe black door pulls and pockets to pull it together?

[ThatOneEuroE30]

Personally would change a thing

[KIRIEIW]

Figured I'd share pics of the ride height. e90 drop hats wouldn't fit correctly with K-Mac Camber plates so I ended up reusing the stock ones. I think I'm going to raise the rear up a bit, any opinions?

Also I'm sure some of you are wondering what Black seats look like with White door panels. I'm not so sure If I like it myself. I'd really like to hear your honest opinions on this one. I'd throw in black cards but the convertible boot lid has white vinyl and I don't want to paint it. I hate half ass work... Oh, and the new dash is looking great compared to the cracked dash the car had on Day 1.

Thanks guys! I have yet to throw in my rebuilt steering rack and new control arms. I'm also considering putting in black door panels, right now I have 2 sets of lotus white (4x front and 4x rear), and I think the only ones I'd even consider selling are the ones in the car right now :D. The Originals are just to cool of a pattern for me to let go and I hope one day I'll have a use for them.

Nice eye on the mustang! It's actually my dads. He has the 65' convertible in the pic, along with 65' Fastback. There all fully restored, those where his projects a couple years back when mustangs weren't outrageously expensive. I think we got his fastback for $2500? Runner and we drove it home!

Nice work! hope to continue to see the updates!

[ThatOneEuroE30]

lookin good! Is that your mustang hiding in the garage?
