    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    Thanks Ryan! The Magnum 500's are my first choice if I do a stamped wheel as they definitely keep the classic look. The Torque Thrust's are about the only other rim I have found that compares to the SS's in looks. I am hoping to make it to a car show or two in the near future to feel them out in person.

    A pic of the current rims. As the car will be painted blue, this is a decent example of the SS's on a coupe.

    I love the Crager SS wheels. I had them on my GN for a while. But I kept breaking them. While the look is classic, the quality sucks balls. I had to go with Weld Drag Stars. None of the Weld Drag Star appeal to me. All are to modern looking. Any other suggestions Seth or anyone for that matter? Had the SS wheels on a Firebird... Only time one broke was from the tire guy NOT removing the center cap and blowing out the hub throwing it on the tire machine. Being as the early Stang isn't really build for mad power, I don't see ever having that kind of torque.

    Go with the older stuff. At least it is easier to deal with. J The prick just got back from Rocklahoma. Nothing worse than working with your boss on his monday. ALWAYS full of stupid shit to say.

    Everytime they change photoshop I have to learn it over again. Is a good time saving tool in my trade though.

    If it has titts or wheels it's going to cost you money.

    I made it three years without a crack in the windshield. That's pretty good for Colorado, as they gravel the roads heavy in the winter. Your doing good to make it more than a year. As we call it a Colorado windshield onces it's cracked from side to side. The police won't generally pull you for it, but is a good reason if they need one.

    I think I'm going to be forced to listen to hip hop at work today. My brother is like a human karaoke machine, but he is a terrible vocalist. thought it funny when I was 5, but not anymore. He hates rap/hip hop so is the only solution as I refuse to work in silence. I don't know how I have worked with him almost 10 years without strangling him.

    More power for mids?

    Possibly try to level things out with an eq to tame peaky frequencies. A good rule of thumb is cut the peaks, instead of trying to boost the lulls.

    Am leaning towards SS Crager 5 spoke rims with BFG T/A shoes. Not a fan of chrome but they are about the only rim I can find that I care for the look of on the ol' Mustang coupe's.

    Speaking of brakes, I ordered the disc kit for the front end!!! I am stuck deciding which route to go on the rear.

    I have had the same Verizon plan for like 12-13 years now. No real complaints. They usually give you a pretty good deal on smart phones when you sign up or upgrade. I really miss my bag phone from back in the day. That MF had some mad signal strength.

    Leaning towards the Kelsey-Hayes dual piston for the front, as that was stock on the Shelby's. The rear discs are still a coin toss. Leaning towards the single piston caliper with e-brake lever, or the drum e-brake in the inside of the disc hub. Anyone have an opinion on either setup?

    Ordered the front suspension for the Mustang this morning! Will pull the trigger on the disc brake kit on Monday, IF I can make up my mind. So many choices.
