Dynamat sound deadening liners were used throughout the car. Professionally painted in PEPPER GREY (PPG base coat/clear coat) w/ Black stripes. The original front & rear bumpers were completely sandblasted and painted to match the car, a cool added touch. The hood scoop is and side-mounted air-cooling ducts are 100% functional to help keep the brakes nice and cool. A set of running lights were custom installed in the center below the front bumper, & headlights were upgraded using Halogen bulbs. This PONY sits on custom 17” Shelby aluminum wheels tires (245/40/ZR17 up front and 315/35/R17 Extreme DUNLOP Drag Radials on the rear).

There was a complete rebuild on the short block, the rotating assembly came with the motor. A hydraulic roller comp. cam was installed and the degree was set.
