Default The Plan

Ok, so - what is the plan?

Overall - build a zippy street oriented mustang that handles and brakes well enough for occasional track days, is comfortable and maintains the classic 60's Steve McQueen esque look.

Body -
LH and RH Torque boxes
SubFrame Connectors.

Suspension -
TCP Coil Overs and a Power Rack up Front.
EVM 3Link/Watts over a 9" out Back

Power -
This is where it gets dicey. Originally I was planning on a 347 bottom end using
my existing SD EFI and Trick Flow Heads in front of a nice T5. Recently, however,
I have been thinking GTO LS2 in front of a T56. I touch on this topic more later
in the series.

Wheels -
17" Torque Thrust/Max Tire Sizes.

Brakes -
Undecided. Baer or Brembo. BIG. No Wilwood due to backspacing complexities.

Comfort -
AC of course.

Paint -
Factory Dark Green. PPG.
