    The stock Mach/Cobra brakes are actually very good. I have a set retrofitted to my 67!

    Looks great. Love the hood Scoop with the black & how you incorporated it in, like the rear spoiler. I'm not a car man anymore. But back in the 70's I had a few muscle cars. Sweet Tang

    Yes, 13” fronts. Add some aftermarket pads and you really don’t need a BBK unless you are tracking the car and have heat soak issues.

    Thanks for all comments!
    Unfortunately I have yet to drive the car. It sat for so long the gas went bad and the battery took a sht. Before I received the car I was told it ran some but never well. I replaced the battery but at this point only got crank with no start. I had it towed to my favorite shop and they diagnosed that the fuel pump died. Probably attempting to run with a dying battery and pumping crud. Should get it back later this week.

    Had to laugh at that, as I was just thinking of similar knuck-knuck-knuckery :D

    That paint though... friggin' liquid. I'm a little jealous in an inspired way, but your patience man, jeez...

    Paint is one thing about working on vehicles that I wish was easier and less invasive, or I'd have had a few vehicles done over the years. Mechanically, they're awesome, they just look used.

    I just don't trust anyone to de-trim my vehicles and put them back together properly, but that's why some guys do that part themselves I guess. Missing or extra parts after reassemble is just the first stage of sloppiness to me.

    Ton of work, before and after even considering the talent for the bodywork, prep and paint. And like anything else completed by the artisan, completely worth the time and money when done well with no bs or questionable work ethic/character.

    There's a lot of stuff I pride myself on being able to learn, do and excel at myself, but paint and bodywork is not one of them.

    Neither is the patience for tracing weird #&*% electrical issues.

    Also on that list is metal fab. I hate you guys the worst, but in the most brotherly of ways.

    It’s a 50/50 mix of Mach and Terminator! My dad had a highly modified 04 Mach that he just recently sold. I wanted to buy it but having three toy cars is a bit ridiculous
