I know I know it's a FORD! But it was my grad present (grad of 02) and to be honest i have fallen in love with this car, i have slowly been making it my own over the years and this is where she sits as of now.

the Cobra R wheels look so damn good on the older foxes

That is a fact. Definitely not a F**d fan but the older fox bodies are the exception to the rule and those Cobra rims look good on this one. I love the t-tops too! :waytogo:

those wheels look huge, in a good way
looks good, ive always been a fan of the 5.0's even after we flipped an 88 fastback into a ditch. paint looks mint, wheels look ***, cant ask for more than that i suppose ............have to say it tho, dont care for the t-tops, not my car tho

Looks good! Any thoughts on doing a 5 lug swap with posi?

A buddy of mine did that with his notchback 5.0 (Ex-California Highway Patrol Unit) as well as a full stroker motor, coil over racing suspension, cage and much more. I couldn't even stay up with him on the track in a '05 Carrera Type S

Here's a pic of his beast.

Actually i have all the stuff to do the 5 lug in a parts car i just picked up, has rear disc brakes with cobra calipers, 13" slotted/drilled rotors and 10" discs in the rear, hawk pads, all SS brakelines, 3:73 gears with a supposedly new posi. Engine wise im saving my pennies for the build of a 347 stroker, hoping for around 350hp to the wheels N/A. Then MORE $$$ for suspension to get the power to the ground. It's a money pit but anything with wheels is!

Nice rides though, I love my 4 eyes... thanks for posting them :)
