Well, since it got lost in the crash, here we go again.
She started out as a 91 LX that I got for my wife, now she wants something else. ( I am not getting into that story) So now it is my daily driver. I like the 4 eyed cars better, so I changed it.

I like it as an 86 better :)
Great mod - love those front ends.
Can you fill in the GT on the side molding?

Nope, I actually paid extra for those. It will make more sense once I paint it next week.

Love those 85 stangs! Looks 100% better than that 91 you had on there. Just my preference but I like the headlight buckets painted black on the 85s

The GT's in 85-86 had no ground effects.

Looks good man! A lot of people have a soft spot for a 4 eye. A lot of people on the internet gave me shit about making my 4 eyed car an 87-93 lookalike, but everybody that sees it in person loves it.

I know that, I'm not sure what it has to do with my question.
I'm asking if he plans to still have the GT on a non-GT car.

Sorry, I thought you were reffering to it stil looking like an LX. And beisdes I think the whole GT and LX thing went out the window when he put the 86 front end on. If it doesnt have GT on the sides the fog lamps are out of place.

Yeah! I thought you might! Your right about the extensions. I could not find the correct one before paint. You probably know you can't say no when your buddy calls and says the booth is open if you want to do this!:thumbsups

Think you can still get the extensions new thru a few of the resto places.
