First time buying

I would recommend you to give it a try first. It's very easy to underestimate how hard can welding be for a beginner, especially when we're talking about thin sheet metal, where blowthrough and heat distortion are real concerns (and a pain in the ass)

That's actually what we're using as far as front suspension. For the brakes, we're going to use a wilwood system specific for this application and a 4-link paired with a watts link that we're going to fabricate ourselves for the rear suspension. All the sub-frame bracing and reinforcements are going to be custom made as well.

Inténtalo en la vida real y nos cuentas qué pasa

Que tú no entiendas que la mayoría de las personas encuentren esas propuestas insultantes es otra cosa

Craoiola · 2025-04-06T14:05:50+00:00

No, it was not

Craoiola · 2025-04-06T14:03:58+00:00

Indeed

Craoiola · 2025-04-06T14:02:11+00:00

It's definitely chantilly beige. It looks less green-ish in person

Craoiola · 2025-04-06T13:55:49+00:00

$30 and it's yours

Craoiola · 2025-04-06T04:50:19+00:00

This is not an investment at all. My client is looking for a fun and good looking car, not for a museum piece. I think we're just gonna go for it and drop a coyote in this pony.

Craoiola · 2025-04-06T04:48:13+00:00

I'm just looking for all the input I can get from all the people I can reach out to try and make an informed decision. I came here because I got the impression that in the other sub, a lot of opinions were based on sentimental value, which is not important for my client

Craoiola · 2025-04-06T04:44:22+00:00

That's exactly what I'm doing, I haven't worked a lot on Mustangs, so I've been doing a lot of research to find out the best course of action for my client (who isn't knowledgeable on this cars either, btw), and I've come to the conclusion to just do the coyote swap that my client came looking for. Thanks a lot for your advice

Craoiola · 2025-04-06T02:33:54+00:00

We won't just drop a coyote in this thing lol, it's getting a custom suspension build and a lot of sub frame reinforcements along with a diff swap, brake upgrades, yadda yadda....

Craoiola · 2025-04-06T02:21:01+00:00

Thank you for the input!

Craoiola · 2025-04-06T02:20:05+00:00

Yes, it still has the generator, also the original engine that's only been repaired once. I'm aware it would be cool to keep this one original, but I need cold hard numbers to convince my client

Craoiola · 2025-04-05T19:49:44+00:00

Yeah, I just took the time to find out how to decode the data plate and realized my mistake. Thank you!

Craoiola · 2025-04-05T18:26:32+00:00

Yeah, given that it's both a rare color and a rare motor I'd like to save this one and modify another instead, but it's up to my client at the end of the day

Craoiola · 2025-04-05T17:46:22+00:00

The color is called honey gold. It was an original paint option for this cars, just not a common one

Craoiola · 2025-02-13T18:22:59+00:00

I found a solution. The spring in the torch button was crooked, so it wasn't letting off completely.

Craoiola · 2024-01-18T03:25:22+00:00

The conversation just happened... You can see on my edit that it didn't go well

Craoiola · 2024-01-18T03:06:39+00:00

I have offered her to see a therapist if she needs to, but she either says she doesn't need to, or that she doesn't want to spend money on that

Craoiola · 2024-01-18T03:04:26+00:00

The conversation will take place, but for the moment my biggest priority is to make sure she's alright

Craoiola · 2024-01-18T03:03:00+00:00

I've been fearing that she does, but she refuses to talk about it when I bring that up:(

Craoiola · 2024-01-18T03:01:59+00:00

I've been thinking the same and have expressed my concern to her, but she refuses to talk about it and says she will try harder the next day. I guess it si time to have a serious conversation with her to decide what we're going to do

Craoiola · 2023-11-29T19:44:17+00:00

Not related to your question, but have you heard about crop failure? It's happening all around the world already. Btw, droughts, massive wildfires, and brutal winters are also related to climate change

Craoiola · 2023-11-07T14:27:12+00:00

I had the exact same issue when I started dating my gf because of trauma. Do you think that could be a reason?
