Default Mustang side project

Back in January I found my way to this site courtesy of a pile of snow and some galvanized steel signposts. Some of you may remember the carnage that was once a highly customized 1995 Mustang...

Goodbye Mustang, hello Nismo

Anyway, I was left with a lot of spare parts and apparently too much time on my hands. Now that my sister will be 16 this coming February I've been working on a 1998 GT for her first car. It needs a lot of cosmetic work, but the driveline is tip-top and I was able to salvage lots of my performance mods. The paint and body work will be entirely new and custom. Performance-wise, I'm giving it basically every chassis/handling mod I can and leaving the engine bone stock since she doesn't need more power as a new driver. I may even give it a "nanny" tune to limit it to 70mph and 4k rpm or so until she learns what she's doing...

So far it's got my 17x8" Bullitt style rims (had to buy 1 new one after the wreck), 1" rear spacers, my Steeda Tri-ax, full Prothane poly bushing kit, my MM steering shaft, custom fabricated sail panels and integrated trunk wing (will look similar to the Saleen wing when done), my old drilled and slotted rotors + ferro-carbon pads, fully boxed rear control arms, my Flowmaster 44 cat-back system, a welded-in shock tower brace, SR strut tower brace, all new rear dampers, new carpet, truck bedliner on the floorboards, lowering springs, my leather shift knob and boot, Bullitt style pedal covers, rubber Ford floor mats, and probably a few more things I'm forgetting.

She doesn't know anything about it... should be a total shock.
