Re: 84 SVO project resto-mod

just machine the hubs of the wheels down a little on the inside, there should be plenty of meat in those wheels.

Re: 84 SVO project resto-mod

Nice SVO, I always really liked those.

There's a black 85.5 or 86 SVO with FR500's that I see around here from time to time. The wheels look alright, but do stick out too far.

The un-numbered speedo is about the coolest thing I've seen Ford ever do.

Re: 84 SVO project resto-mod

yeah, I plan to do an sn95 brake/spindle conversion on the front to get the wheels to sit in flush with the fenders.
The rears sit just right to me with the stock rear end

Just a quick update...
Yes the car has been sitting in the driveway for the last 2 years. Since selling the cobra I have got a little more motivated and started working more overtime at work to buy up a few parts. I am waiting to get a few more things before we take it out to the shop and start on it.
So far I have..

3" midpipe that splits into 2.5" duals
2.5" polished stainless tail pipes
Bob's log header ceramic coated on order (should be here this week)
MGW shifter
Kenny Brown SFC's
Kenny Brown jacking rails
ALL new a/c components and lines

I still have the nitrous kit from the cobra and it will more than likely end up on there with the 100 shot pills in it. Also have boost and fuel press gauges that need to be mounted. I have read up on a new cam that is out so the ranger roller will be coming out this summer as well.

Still need to get wheels and tires to make it road worthy. I know what I want but may have to settle for something else cheaper first.

Hopefully will finish my parts buying by the summer so I can get everything going on it by the next dragon run

Btw, here is the link I was telling you about the other day.

http://mc-machine.com/79dash/79dash.htm

Not sure if it's a look you'd want, but it's an option. . . although, it looks like they are currently sold out.

This arrived today, it should help the turbo breathe some
