Another Donor car finds it's way to the project



Ran across a complete 88 GT for a good price and picked it up. The car will make a perfect donor for the fuel injected 5.o, wiring harness and T-5 transmission all in one nice package. This car can be sold complete with some clean up or as just a rolling chassis to the benefit of the Fastback Build. Oh yeah check out those real 93 Cobra wheels on it Schweeet!

Another sweet deal was secured too. The new replacement folding back seat upholstery for the new color scheme and interior plan. I have decided to go with Gloss Black exterior and White Interior with Black accents and carpet (this week, lol). This 2+2 rear seat cover is valued at around 200+ I picked it up for around 31.00 delivered. I love a deal!
