I can't believe the unfortunate luck you've have with the tangerine machine :/ keep your chin up! Aren't you almost done with school now too?Yea it was another deer but it was a lot more damage this time. I was doing about 70mph and saw two does on the side of the road, I tried to slow down which was dumb cause if I had just kept going I would've missed her. It was a smaller doe this time, but her entire body was in front of the car when I hit her. Lesson learned, don't do 70mph on a back road with shitty headlights.I graduated last month! I'm finally done with college! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's just too much stuff I wanna do, and it wouldn't be possible if I was serving. I'm sure that's something you have to be 100% committed to and I'm just not ready to do that.

The way you talked on Instagram I was getting depressed. lol... Glad you're gonna fix it. Congrats on graduating! Military is something that you have to commit to 100%, it's hard, but by the time you're at 10 years, It's just routine! Haha... Make it bigger, make it better, make it faster!!!

fry Posted January 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 Thanks everyone! I got a car to transplant my drive train and everything into. It hasn't been wrecked so no frame damage like the tangerine dream. Since I'm putting everything into a new body, I think itd be dumb to paint it back tangerine since that's not the original color. But I don't like the new cars original color so I was thinking about grabber blue or legend lime? I'm gonna get the engine bay done before I swap everything.

WildWillyWalker Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 I've seen a grabber blue sn95 and I didn't like it much either. Legend lime sounds interesting. I'd have to see it. I know grabber green looks awesome on a New Edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Det_Riot Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 No offense, the only people I see driving legend lime mustangs are people who drive cars that look like this: I say go out of the box and something that isn't done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporting Member fiveohwblow Posted January 27, 2014 Supporting Member Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 I'm planning on a random color for mine as well. One I haven't seen on an sn.

fry Posted March 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2014 The donor car I found didn't work out. Now I'm on cl pretty much all day looking for something suitable to put the drive train in. Its hard finding something for less than $2k that hasn't been wrecked. I couldn't care less about the motor or tranny since I'll be replacing them, but just a good body is hard to find. In the meantime I drove the stang to town yesterday to get wires for the jeep. After not driving it for a month wow it felt weird! I got to get it swapped over asap. My deadline is mustang week cause I dont wanna miss another year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prokiller Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 focus more on finding a clean v6. seems to be more common than GTs. obviously mileage doesn't matter as you'll be swapping in all the stuff that matters. little bit more work as you'll have to switch out the dash wiring but still.

Something that's never been wrecked. I'm willing to travel if its a good deal, but only if its drivable. If I need a trailer to get it, which is fine too, it'd have to be somewhere in SC.
