I've always liked Ford Probes.

Great looking build!

Yes shaun, iīm on stock wheels... i canīt afford to change wheels and tires right now ((8



Can u tell me what method did you used to rolling the fenders ?

I used an Eastwood fender roller to do the rolling and slight pull, when it went in for paint I had the body shop smooth out the fenders cause they were a tad wavy after I did it.

theres prlly about 10 of us probe guys that actually have good taste. Its frustrating because i think the lines of the car are beautiful and they right on per performance wise as the other sport compacts of the day.

Every time I see your car out on the road (I pass you every once in awhile on Bardstown) I almost never recognize it at first. lol I don't know, it just looks so much more exotic and not like a Ford Probe. lol

so beyond done with this car at the moment...the trans/clutch has been a nightmare. the further i get into it the more i realaize that the previous owner did some things half way. half of the trans bolt holes were re tapped and done very poorly which resulted in more stripped holes once i took the bolts out. The intermediate shaft bolt holes were this way as well.. Once i got the trans up and in place is when i realized all this because the bolts wouldnt go in and tighten..

I basically spent the whole day yesterday re tapping holes and buying bolts instead of putting everything back together. so fingers crossed today will go smooth and ill get it running and shifting correctly, wish me luck.

Good luck=) Previous owners can be the devil sometimes=/
