Just before getting snow, I was able to have my Mustang fitted with new front brakes and suspension pieces. I had to acquire some proper early Mustang spindles, which I found used on Craigslist. I got the 4 piston brake kit from CSRP (I had the calipers painted), and the remaining parts from Virginia Classic Mustang. Glad I have proper suspension/geometry now and a proper alignment. Car seemed to handle quite awesome while I was able to drive it!

There was some slight rubbing on turns between the calipers and my 15x7 Torque Thrusts on one side, so a little grinding was necessary on the calipers. Other than that I'm told the CSRP kit went on great!

Thanks Randy. I ended up bringing it to Complete Automotive in Blaine. I am pleased with the work they did for me on this project as they were able to handle everything at one time/place.

That looks awesome! For winter, I recommend storing it with the front wheels off so you can walk by it and admire it every day. :-)

I still think you need to sell me your convertible and a completely unrealisticly low price. There is no need to own 2. And to be honest, why would you want to drive it anymore anyway after investing in nice brakes like that for the fastback?

OK Dan, you can have my convertible for the low price of $75K.:D
I'm sad to report that the convertible will not see any action for a while. I put it in storage in ND this fall. I'm going to spend some quality time with the fastback, which you can also have for the right price.:spin2:
