During the time my car has sat, I have had several other Stangs. I bought a 88GT vert, parted it out, 89GT parted it out, and a 93 Calypso LX hatch, which I sold. I've bought, sold, and traded parts. Now I have begun to stock up on the good stuff for my notch finally, after buying a bunches of stuff for it only to sell it later. I have the help I need, and a wife that supports it. I decided to go back to all LX, no GT stuff or other ground effects. First thing was a new decklid, which I just sold to buy a HO Fibertrends fiberglass decklid.

So here are some pics as I removed the rearend to begin on some new torque boxes. Actually, my friend and I have come up with a custom set up that we will be patenting.

I'm not the only one wanting to see her going again. My parents bought me jackstands for Christmas, my sister got me a creeper, and my wife pushes me into the garage.LOL We will actually totally removing the boxes and, well, you'll see pics in a couple of weeks. I kept the LX rear bumper cover off the 93 I had, and removed the Xenon side skirts. I am now looking for a nice LX front bumper cover.
