[BLAKE]

I'm gonna guess Trinity Park in Fort Worth, underneath Lancaster?

Correct!

Very nice! Got any interior pics?

Yeah, we didn't take much today, but here are some recent pics.

Well done sir.

We were just talking about that. I'll let you know for sure when we nail down a date.

Very nice. What seats are those?

What did you use for that handbrake conversion?

[Hunter]

Nice looking fastback!

[bubbaearl]

why an 8.8 rear ??

[Gear_Jammer]

Freaking fantastic looking Blake!

What did you use for that handbrake conversion?

'05 Acura RSX seats. Handbrake is from an '85 fox. I literally placed it where it looked right, cut a hole and connected things up underneath. The console is a factory '66 piece that I chopped up and customized to fit the brake and little amp/Bluetooth stereo setup.

why an 8.8 rear ??

3.73's, trac-lok and rear discs for relatively cheap. It would take quite a bit more $ to get my factory 8in up to those specs, and way more for a 9".

very nice!

[QUOTE=BLAKE;1645773]I finally got some decent pics with the new wheels. I'd still like to lower the rear a bit, but it's good for now. A nice camera and even nicer lens makes all the difference.




you really should detail that booster....

[BLAKE]

Thanks for the compliments guys. Means a lot.

you really should detail that booster....

Yeah that's happening with the new brake master cylinder, which is part of the explorer rear swap. Hard part of that is done, just have to finish cleaning and assemble. And then install and plumb the brakes, and figure out the E-brake connection. And whatever else I'm not thinking of.

Looks amazing, Blake. I feel myself really wanting to have an older car with as many modern features as possible.

Thanks man. I do have to say, I find restomodding (for lack of a better term), super rewarding. Stock old cars are their own kind of fun, but constantly improving an old car according to your own tastes is pretty great. I had that '05 last year that was super fast, but I always spent my daydreaming time on the old car. Easy decision to sell the newer one. Don't think I could ever let this one go.
