93 Coupe "Shadow"

Finally got the 5-lug Cobra brake Conversion done! It was a bit of a thrash to get it done last minute before the annual Easter Race at Roxboro Motorsports Park. But it's mostly done. All I have left is to install the parking brake cables and modify the handle.

While I was at it, I also installed new Strange 10way single adjustable shocks and struts, and got the Line Lock plumbed in.

Here it is with the RaceStar wheels at the track.

I also managed to get a new best time of 8.35 in the 1/8th mile at 80mph.

I converted my drum to disc on the front of my 66. The Force10 kit I used was a perfect bolt on kit I got from eBay.

While I had the console out, I ended up doing quite a bit of cleaning and detailing to the interior before MustangWeek 2017.

Don't you just love how easily the Fox coupe rear seats can be removed?

Cleaned the upholstery. Here is a comparison. The right side has been cleaned and allowed to dry.

Got a new arm rest pad from Fox Mustang Restoration. I was missing the pad altogether and the bottom plastic piece that it attaches to was broken. Got both replaced and ready to go back in the car.
