Please Graduate FFR# 4671. Finally!!!

Well not quite, but I've ran out of money after bouncing back from my little accident a couple months ago and all the other mods I had in mind are gonna have to wait a little while longer. It's been a long year, but thanks to my family, friends, and the help I received from great FFR members like yourselves I can finally hit the road.....

Hope you guys like it and feel free to ask me any questions, comments, suggestion, or for more pics. Oh, by the way that's not a professional model. It's my little sis who insisted on coming out in the pics.

wow.........

Loving the black, but hot as all heck with that climate ???

Interior is very unique, not my taste for my own car but I like it a lot.

Questions galore if you feel like answering 'em

1. Whats over the headlights? Like wire or something.
2. What are the specifics on the wheels?
3. Where did you get the COBRA letters on your valve covers?? And the snake on the intake plenum? Gorgeous. Never seen them before.

Very very clean build, not a lot of "Look at me" blingy stuff. Sexy paint, and perfect balance between the black / chrome / tan interior.

Really nice job!

Are you sure that sister of yours isn't a model?

Student, thanks for the compliment. I actually got the idea for the interior after seeing the diamond tuck interior on the Spyker and the Lamborghini Murcielago. I couldn’t find a place where I could find it in the size diamond and color I was looking for so I had to do it the old fashion way. My friend's mom works at a place where they use industrial size sueing machines and she did all the stching for me. My cousin and I made the cuts and instalation.

That's one bad-ss car Dave. Since your first post you've been setting the new standard of excellence. Your car is simply perfection. You have some real vision my friend... EASILY the best interior I've ever seen. Uhh...your sis is pretty hot too :0)...no...VERY HOT... Peace...

Dave: Why are you yanking us about future upgrades, that car is stunning in its' current state. I also echo the interior comments of others - just enough pizzazz without being too much. You have talent!!

The picture of 'sis sitting up on top of the rollbar is the first time I've seen that - clever!

Nice job.

Just have to reiterate with the others, it looks fabulous.

I knew I'd seen an interior like that before, when you mentioned you took cues from the Spyker it just confirmed it, I love those cars.

Congrats Dave, the interior is something the judges will be talking about if you decide to enter it into a show. I haven't seen a FFR like that before!

Great job Dave!

What did you use for the chrome intake pipe? Is that a BBK? Do you have a part number? Also, do you have any pics of the filter-end of your intake? Again, great work!

Glad to see you got it back together after the little slip you had, It still looks great as well as the chicka! Looks clean and you can tell real thought was invested in your build.

Headlight covers are from finishline: http://www.finishlineaccessories.com...de7d3273b00dc5
Valve cover COBRA letters: http://www.zzpdecals.com/3d_chrome_letters.html
Coiled snake on intake manifold just picked up off ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/FORD-...2em118Q2el1247
Tires & wheels: Team III Halibrand replicas I got from FFR and I painted them black.
Front: 17x9 wheels, with 255/40z R17 tires
Rear: 17x11 wheels, with 315/35z R17 tires
Tires are Goodyear Eagle F1's
Chrome intake pipe: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BBK-1...spagenameZWDVW

Thanks for all the comments about my sis now she's walking around the house with a bigger ego than me! This is her toy by the way, she wanted me to make sure you guys saw it. It's a 65 VW with factory pop-out windows, sunroof, and some other little mods I helped her out with
