Hey guys,

I just figured I'd post some before and after pics of my car just so you guys know what it looked like when I got it. I figured this would be a good idea for members on US to show the progress of the four eyed stangs. I hope I'm not putting to many pics in the thread:snicker:.

Thanks Dean:mick:

It took me seven years to find it. I actually found it by mistake when I was looking at Capri's for sale. I couldn't pass it up.

I'm telling as many of the 4 eyed crew about the site as I can. I expressed that 4 eyes are very popular here and that they even have their own section!!!:marc1:

I told our friend with the mint black 86 Capri about US as well. He is the original owner of his 86 Capri.

Wow Paul I never knew what your 85 looked like when you first got it.

What's funny is that Fred didn't know the Notch looked like that either lol...It's come a long way.

I also love that pic of our cars together! Both of your cars are awesome!

Thanks for the compliments and again thanks to everyone else as well!:awsome:

I hope the guage set up works great for you. I really like it a lot and love the fact that it utilizes the factory guage bezel, which I really like.

Thanks guys!:awsome:

I appreciate the compliments on the car. I really love my Notch and over the winter started to clean up the engine compartment and take out all of the old emission controls that weren't connected. It's looking better already. My plan is to pull the motor in Sept and have the engine bay sandblasted and painted now that I have an engine stand and cherry picker. That will definitely put some finishing touches on the car. I also have to change the intake gasket, but I already have everything to do that. I just want to drive the car for the cruising season and enjoy it.
