First pics
Ok guys these are the first pics I have put on here. I have been here for a while but this is the first time I put pics on here. They are in my profile in alubm titled MINE (don't know how to put them in a post yet) so please take a look (only three pics sorry) It is my Street Beasts COBRA. I am excited to hear any comments good or bad. I am very thick skined(Jamo has already yelled at me like 3 times lol).and yes Jamo you can look to. One of the biggest things I did was relocate the gas cap. Enjoy!

Sounds like, with the exception of the engine, your drivetrain is set up like mine!
I just finished rebushing the parallel 4-bar rear suspension...it was a difficult job, the first time I have ever done anything like this, but the car now rides SO MUCH better and, wonder of wonders, there are no more rattles. I really like the way the car hooks up with the 4-bar suspension in the rear (I also have a Panhard rod...that was the worst part of the job!).
My 9" Traction Loc is indestructible, Lord knows I have tried!
Without doubt the weakest link in your drivetrain will be the T-5! More durable models are available if yours is a stock Mustang T-5...but, having said that, I have had no trouble with mine (despite having 295/50X15 rear tires that are 11" wide), because the Cobra is so light that the tires break loose before the transmission is stressed.
I well remember your "innumerable" threads during your due-diligence phase, littlewave. It sounds like you were well prepared for the car you eventually bought.
Good on ya!
Cheers!
Dugly

What size wheels are you using? I think 295's will fit on mine.

Any advice on how to relocate the gas cap? What kinda measurements did you use? Did you use any reinforcement when you moved it to the rear quarter?
