That is definently the Mustang and it looks like they are in the middle of installing the supercharger. I don't see the belt or and piping but you never know?

SICK SICK SICK!! I 've been waiting for weeks.
How did you decide to go inwards with the wheel well? Wouldn't you want to go half in, half out to keep the same offset on the wheels? Or just wider for a better stance? Interested to hear your thoughts.

you always want to go in unless you plan on keeping the same rear end and flaring the fenders. that rear end is the stock one and its gone. im using a narrowed ford 9" so i went in im using weld draglites 15x10 with a 4.5" backspacing.

the camaro is blown too but i couldnt get an engine shot. the photo *is* of the mustang. the head unit was just there for mock up. the only thing mounted today was the intercooler. the camaro has the same setup just the intercooler is different. that camaro yanked a 1.40 60 ft this weekend in vegas on the brake. thats what im hoping to get with the colt

Poor John and his mini tub. Real old school cars dont need mini tubs. The factory engineers them with wheel wells that will fit 8 inch wide tires. Its a sign John.

[peregrine]

John, won't the shoulder flares touch in your car. Stay old school man, avoid adding neon...

touch is a strong word. id say more like graze

Tell me this thing dosent make a ton of money.

Unlikely. Most states in Australia have very tough anti-street-drag racing laws.
Get caught once - car gets confiscated for 24hrs + big fine.
Get caught a 2nd time - confiscated for 3 months + big fine.
Get caught a 3rd time - lose car permanently with no compensation + big fine.

Subsequently most drag racing is done on the legal track. Boring eh!
Another view. I'll try and dig up some pics of the Galant wagon running similar times.

[peregrine]

got my rims today. car is starting to come along nicely now. the mini tub should be finished within the next two weeks. i figure im about 2 months out for it to fire.

 

[GalantGSR91]

all hail draglite's and B&M!

 

[talon94es]

nice. Can't wait to see it when your all done. Those are some sweet galant launch pics! Kinda strange that almost all of the launches shows the cars leaning to the right pretty heavy.

 

[white98gst]

[ryu]

bored off my ass on a sunday afternoon. heres a pic of the car loaded going to get the rear end work done.

[peregrine]

Wow, all I have is ugly stock rims. With the money you spent on those rims I built 50% of my junkpile and it unfourtunatlly shows. All hail the big ballers.

yep. sure is nice to have about $2000 amonth in disposable income

 

[peregrine]

that grass is unreal!

you have no idea how right you are

 

[Stock Josh]

Justins stock turbo engine handed it to Jay by about 3 cars. Its uglier than we all imagined. I for one am disgusted and hate my life. And no I'm still not putting a 4G63 in my RX3.

 

[Snobordin8]
