Yep, you have the disease... I am sure there are lots of mechanical adventures in store for you and the latest ride. Happy Motoring...Thanks Cantflip, I'll take your advise. You know what's weird? There doesn't seem too be a shoebox ford forum.
Anyhow I'm not planning on changing her body. I'm gonna do a couple performance upgrades though. Disk brakes, wider tires (atleast an inch, I'm keeping the 14 inch rims though.), better suspension that gets rid of the forward rake the car has, front and rear sway bars, and a volvo 160 power steering box.
