1965coupe Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 While I'm in the mood to post pictures, here you go: Before: And $40 later (signals on eBay plus bulbs): Yes, the edges of the new signal are cruddy looking- that is clear silicone I put on just for extra security against moisture. The signals are identical to the ones AmericanMuscle sells for $100.. Lower Grill: $20 Scott Drake Shifter bezel: And finally, a billet antenna: If you need any more pictures, let me know. Next mod: Pioneer Avic-D3 with NAV, XM, B/U camera, Bluetooth, etc.. I know there will be mixed opinions with the smoked marker lights. Truth is, they can be swapped in an hour, and I think orange turn signals on any car are fugly... Enjoy! :shades: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SGT2666 Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 i would asume it give you directions on how to do so and parts needed for instalation I wouldn't make that assumtion They included none of that, on the shelby forum there are instructions for a number of the Shelby bits pinned at the top Bud's instructions. I bought rivets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMCVette Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 Nice work! Regarding the "GT" lighter plug (I like it), does Shelby make one with his initials or a cobra on it? That would be way cool.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be way cool.... There are many options for these plugs on eBay, I have yet to see the CS logo. Here is one with the cobra: Link to eBay seller with other options: http://motors.search.ebay.com/_eBay-Motors...0QQsassZ3ducks3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1965coupe Posted November 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 how do you incert the lower grill??? :wacko: how long does it take??? No, instructions are not included. Get them from the other forum.. As far as the installation, pretty straightforward--although it is impossible without the car off the ground. Bud's instructions call for one rivet on each side, although seeing as how I'm OCD, I put three rivets on each side. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azquadz Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 Nice Work, turn signals are sweet! Here are some of 701's home grown mods: Steeda Intake Elbow: Did you notice any difference after adding the Steeda Intake Elbow...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGT0701 Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 Did you notice any difference after adding the Steeda Intake Elbow...? Yes, I did notice a difference. More than enough to justify the $109 for the elbow. It really made a difference over 3000 RPMs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just asking because Steeda site recommended one... Do you have a Costco or manufacturer model number on the jack? Anyone interested in the lighter plug - here's a link to where I purchased mine: http://www.mgwltd.com/mustang_2005-present.shtml SEF AKA: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShelbyPilot Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 WHERE DID YOU GET THOSE GT40 WHEELS AND HOW MUCH DID THEY COST.I THINK I LIKE THEM THE BEST.THANKS I bought them through Evolution Performance and had them shipped to me from the American Racing factory. They were $4200 for the set, not including tires. I have been told by others that they have been discontinued. However, I also heard from a usually reliable source that there is an inexspensive one piece with a very similar design coming. I don't have independent knowledge of either things though.

greaser Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 yes did the steeda elbow require a tune as that is the only thing keeping me from doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
