Yeah, it cornes just a little better, and seems to brake better, doesn't feel like you're on a teeter-totter if you gotta lock 'em up. And the straight SECKS of sittin' low helps get the girls to thorw 'em pannies atcha when you roll by :)

On our way to the National in Denver last year. My son photoshoped the pictures so only the car is in color. Pretty cool if you ask me!!

And Zoli wonders why I give him crap about his "Trailer Queen!" It's even his favorite picture of the car...:1poke:

Here's how they're supposed to look.... AT SPEED.

What did you do to get the stance? your color also look much like what I am putting on mine. Your car looks Great!
That is Deep Jewl Green Pearl Metallic, has a blue tint to it, it is a factory FoMoCo color from '95 up.

The suspension is actually pretty cheap (under $300) if you can find a vendor to piece it together for you, 620 1" drop springs, SHIMMED lower ball joints, and I made a template out of an old road sign to raise the upper control arms 1", gave a total of 3" drop. I got all the stuff from Dallas Mustang or Branda I think, takes a whole day if you're nursing your beer. Be sure to get the shims for the BJ's, failure to do so putts a hella sideways strain on them. I also switched to polygraphite bushings and slapped a 1" sway bar on it I picked up for $20 at a swap meet. No squeaks and it goes where you point it.
