Ain't finished yet.

Did you buy it in Culpeper, VA?

If so, I believe I recognize the car.

HAHA I figured it out, the link is a Mustang, took me a bit but I got it :) Looks like a tough project. Why don't muscle car dudes ever lower there cars? They are always stompers. Cool build though, I still haven't let my balls drop and cut the front off a 510 and tried to do a better suspension setup. The day will come though :)

Jeff, I always figured this would be the way to go as well - I just don't have the time for "another" project at the moment. I just think of the possibilities that are open if the strut towers were not there! :D
