well no updates yet, but I should have some good ones next week. I've been working so much that I haven't even had the time to wipe the dust off. My body guy brought over another customer today to see the car. I thought it was cool having people I don't know drooling over my car. It's going to be even better when it runs under its own power.
And just to remind everyone where it started, and how far it's come........
and here is a quick shot I took tonight, this is what I see every time I open the garage door. I love my life!
Wow! This car has come a long way. Keep up the good work
Any progress Matt?

the car still lives in my garage. After some hard goings, i finally got the bumper reconditioned, and as soon as I get new bumper extenders, they will be painted and put on the car, new trim is about to go on then pictures will come.
one last deal to make.
Updates?

thanks everyone, this has been by far the most ambitious project I've ever tried. But its actually well on its way. As far as the engine, I'm keeping it simple, and staying as close to stock as a horse power junky like me can. It's getting a stock bore 302HO and a T-5, a edlebrock intake holly 650, and maybe a pair of GT40 heads. I want this car to be kinda low on power, its a peace of history not a racecar. and the bumper is coming soon. I had the original cover restored, and according to my body guy it looks brand new. A quick question, are the bumper extenders different from the 4eyes to the aero noses? The only nice extenders I have are off a crashed 88 coupe.
one last deal to make.
How did I miss this thread???
Mine is in the garage, but doesn't nearly as sexy as yours. I love your interior, that very cool and one I've personally never seen before.
Here's 4S-0130:

I've never heard of a predator before, is it like saleen/roush/shelby? Someone takes the car and builds it to there specs and sells it on the market? What is the value of something like this?
That Roll cage is SWEET!
It's awesome to see where it started and where it is now. Wish I had more money so I could fix mine to its original glory, atleast paint and interior...
I wish I had more money too! lol If I did it would be done.
Squirrel, seeing as I wouldn't have her if not for your vast knowledge on such things, I will have to make that happen when its done. I owe you that.
one last deal to make.
Look another predator owner^^^^. Im just glad I shared my knowledge with you. Anyyhing to save a car and help a friend own a super sweet ride from the grave yard

word, I'm still waiting on the bumper to come back from paint. but this summer I will be heavy in this car, and Plan on getting it running this year. I mean heck! theres not much to an old carbed fox.lol
one last deal to make.
Did it come with the hood or did you "make" one? That is coming along nicely. Slowly, but nicely..... LOL
Thanks for preserving her. Just curious as to the story. How did Mr. Squirrel know it was a Predator?
