Girls fucking loved him, so if you were playing his shit, girls were on you. Hit up the all girls catholic HS dances when they were getting out, playing some Vanilla Ice, chicks would jump in your car with you. Then he busted out that 5.0 and MFers went crazy, everyone wanted one lol.

Looking good FESTER665 !! You know I swing from the foxbody nuts hard.

Side story: one of my old hot Rod buddy’s sister actually won the Vanilla ice mustang from B96 or whatever the station was called back then. It was a huge live giveaway event. I don’t know what she did with the car or if she sold it. I just remember them calling her name live and I was like WTF??!!

I thought VI kept the car himself, and still has it.

I am guessing she sold it or there was a cash option. But she definitely won it. The family moved to Texas right after that so I lost contact with them.
Edit: I looked it up and VI had the car restored from being abused for $150k

Or it was A mustang giveaway like the one used, but not his.

No. It was kinda of a big deal at the time that it was the car from the video. It was like a summer promotion. I had entered the contest too. You had to sign up at killer b van appearance or some crap like that.

I have an aftermarket core support , at least the frame rails up.
if you need it, I remember there was some sort of old repair that wasn't the best.

 

[Jimy Bilmo]

They get paint on this thing yet?

 

[FESTER665]

Havent received an update over the holiday, so not sure. No big rush really so when I hear from them I hear from them. I am sure it will be this week I imagine.

 

[FESTER665]

The Holley Coyote controls just arrived though, so thats always nice.

Need to talk to Motion Raceworks and figure out drive by cable throttle body setup on the coyote intake and order that stuff up.

Let me know what kind of price Motion gives you. My guy is sponsored by them and he might be able to beat it

Go to Accufab, order up the 84.5 for the coyote and choose mechanical option. Depending what intake manifold you are trying to use, the cable mounting bracket will be the biggest hassle.

Just a Gen 2 intake for now, but will likely eventually go to a 2018 intake

I concur

I concur

Eventually would be the goal, just more important to get it up and going first.

I talked to the shop today and they’re still making sure it’s dead flat everywhere, color late this week or early next week.
