1966 Coupe, '93 Fox seats, Three point belts, stock 289 C-code, 500 Cfm Edelbrock carb, Weiand 8011 intake, 351W exhaust manifolds, 2" duel exhaust (no H-pipe), WC T5 trans (not Cobra), Pro 5.0 shifter, 3.40 open, KH front disc, Porterfield R4-S pads, 1 3/4" drums rear with stock shoes, Braided steel hoses, Wilwood proportioning valve, 10 lbs residual valve to rear drums, 1" front sway bar, Stock upper and lower control arms, Rebuilt stock steering box (19:1), Shelby drop, Spring perch relocation, Shelby quick steer, (the steering is 4 turns lock-to-lock) Pro-Motorsports GT progressive rate coils (1/2 coil cut), 4.5 leaf mid-eye springs, Stock bushings and shackles, KYB Gas-A-Just front & GR-2 rear, Export brace, Monti-Carlo bar, Global West sub-frame connectors, Performance alignment (+4 caster/-1 camber), 16x7-4" BS wheels, 215/55/16 & 225/55/16 BFGoodrich g-Force Sport comp-2 tires (340 TW), 1/2” rake at the seam weld, Ride height 7-3/4” front and 8-1/4” rear to seam weld.

I try to get out to our local tracks twice a year - Pacific raceways and The Ridge. I like having the goal of track performance as a target as I install parts or modify the car. Next project is to install Opentracker's roller idler arm kit and up the caster to 5 degrees.
