After almost 10 years (received kit Dec 20, 2016) it's finally licensed and registered with the state of Louisiana to legally be on the road. Still have some things to complete but it's at least drivable.
Color is 2024 Mustang Dark horse blue with added copper flakes and a very subtle more copper ghost stripe.
Engine is 2015 crate Coyote from Forte with a TKO 5 speed.
Independent rear suspension from FF5.
Bigger Wilwood brakes from Gordon Levy with electronic parking brake.
Quiet Pipes side pipes from Boig.
All chrome painted or powder coated black.
No gauges...just a AIM MX Strada display.
Seats and door trim from Intatrim.
Don't know why I bought the full kit when I replaced most of it.
I had a lot of help along the way...my friend who is a mechanic opening his first shop soon....Jimmy with Accelerated Automotive.
Troy with Geaux Moto did body work and painting among other things.
And thanks to my wife for not killing me on spending too much and taking so long....
Attached are some pics....hope y'all enjoy.
Thanks.
Paul Mastio
