Sexy Suzie build thread. Wrecked 09 gt

[muztangman93]

Im gonna call this one sexy suzie. Its gonna be slower then I wished but will get done. Doing everything myself except windshield and glass roof. This car was bought from a forum member and shipped from texas to Indiana. It has a saleen blower installed. Should be a fun street car when done. Plans are
complete repaint. Windhshield Glass roof misc interior pieces and hopefully a lot of enjoyment at the end. Ive cleaned a lot of the parts out of the interior and removed the drivers side door that was smashed and front bumper.

Looks like a fun project, good luck!

Best of luck! I bet you could make a profit selling those Razors!

 

[muztangman93]

Im gonna put the razors on my other car.

Heres the link to the car that was purchased. If you were going to a body shop It would cost a lot. Worst part is the glass roof needs replaced. The rest I can handle.

Been working on it off and on today. Going to put it all back together so I know everything is there. Fix dents then tare it apart and paint it. Got the drivers door on. Put passenger door panel and glass back in cleaned the hell out of the interior still needs shampooed and some dressing applied. Took front bumper off and obviously drivers door sine another one is installed.

Awesome man! Great to see this car coming back to life. Wish I had the space/means to do the same, I'd love to bring an s197 back to life for a second racecar

Sweet project. Is it going to have a salvage title?

 

[muztangman93]

It has a clean title. Was never totaled out. My other car puts out nearly 700rwhp. Im gonna use this one for a street cruiser. The hardest part is putting a game plan together on what to do. I was going to do a color change on the car. I thought it needed more body work then it does. Ive decided Im going to keep it vapor silver so that will be less work. The glass roof sucks going to be expensive. Anybody know where a guy can get one cheaper then from ford.

I don't know for sure but you can try one of the windshield repair outfits.

It looks like a fun project. Put a cf roof on it or regular roof.

 

[muztangman93]

I had pondered the idea of it but a glass roof really makes it.

 

[ZmanM3]

Didn't moderne classics, classic design concepts or someone make a glass roof?

 

[muztangman93]

Ill look into it. Also I don't think anyone makes an actual carbon fiber roof just an overlay.

Nice project, good luck on the build.

If i had the money i would have picked that car up as a project. I look forward to seeing it finished.
