First thing I see is how far the rear wheels stick out... I'm thinking getting a different rear offset might help that out a bit. Might need to look into a whole different set of wheels. The others have the tail lights covered. Please if nothing else tint them dark as you legally can. Then go another 5% for good measure.

Mind telling us what you paid for it. It looks fairly clean from the posted pics.

I would lean towards putting the correct rearend under the car; that way he wouldn't have to have a diffeent offset between the front and the rear wheels.

Maybe he could sell that rearend to rtusnake and pick up a fox-body axle housing with that money. :shrug:


. . . and, yeah, if it were me, those tail lights would have to go. :notnice:

Actually,the rearend's are the same as far as the housings go,it's the axle length that's different.

Nope, the housings for the new-edge Mustangs are wider.

Not a bad looking car. Some wheels for an '05+ mustang would bring them in a little but still gonna be wide.

Looks like a nice starting foundation. Now it needs a small motor like a 557 or you could go big like a 609 or even a 800 plus. Lol tail lights look riceee.smoked lx lenses would set it off. If you need my housing its for sale but u would need axles then mine are 4lug I traded the 5 lug mosers off .

Why? Because it won't run and it will still be sitting in the same spot as in all those pictures? :shrug:

Hell, we still haven't seen pics of the front of the car. :p
