Rename Super Beateriful !! Damn , Blacksheep 1 , you are going to get questions if your nickname BS1 stands for " Beautiful Stang #1 ! " This thread has no longer got the right title, but it sure shows what elbow grease, vision, and a plan can come together for a spectacular finish. Fun thread for everyone on TMO and simply stunning!!

Installing the brake ducts and hoses, in retrospect, I should've used 3 inch, getting the 4 inch around the A/C condensor was quite the PITA.
The bodywork in front of the air duct along with the grill had to be cut out with an air saw.
When I do the ducts, I also either use a pop rivet or a sheet metal screw to secure the steel ring in the hose to the duct, then place the hose clamp to secure the rivet/ screw

Project " No Longer a Beater ," has gotten more and more interesting , but as the months go by it is becoming " Project Credit Card Beater , " ha. The car keeps getting nicer , but it also acquires more and more very necessary equipment to be super safe and quite fast. Any timeline for it to be finished ???

On paper, it's finished now. But I've yet to find time to track it or autocross it. Kind of busy in IMSA and prolly with the runoffs
