My 87 mustang ideas


So as you can see I started posting a lot of my ideas for my 1987 hatchback.
Truth is the engine is done, I have a suspension, and I have no exterior or interior.
So my exterior ideas are... I want to put a 86 gt front bumper on the car with some 87 gt ground effects and rear bumper, a gt wing, 17 inch aluminum cobra rims. I have 1.5 inch lowering springs. I want to paint it black or midnight blue metallic.

Getting black interior with black leather seats and brushed aluminum trim.

What do you think?

That is a poorly photoshopped picture of what it should look like

I was thinking about just throwing on the 87 ground fx and leaving the 86 gt rear bumper on. Then i looked it over leaving it straight like you said would look better. It looks to cut up with the ground effects. Thanks.

Here are some engine pics. The engine isn't anything great I am just making a sporty little car for now but I will have either a 351 or get a new cam heads and pistons in the next year.
I am going to take more pics on wednesday with the headers oilpan the manifold bolted on. It needs pulleys and a water pump I just bought a chrome alternator for it.
