Has anyone ever stanced a Mustang?

2005-up Mustangs really do need an IRS. A little rear camber would really make those cars pop.

This isn't as flush as some, but it's tubbed and will haz low

Can I ask why you wanted the bulging tire? I mean, I know its just the opposite of stretch, but it has absolutely no point for a performance application... The rears should be a 10" minimum imo if you wanted the performance to match the look.

not for performance -I just love the look. The car really doesn't have much performance to speak of -I mean it's faster than your basic commuter appliance, but it's not a fast mustang @all.

I had just seen this pic of that car today and was wanting more pix before I decided to post it in this thread. When you're talking a/b low mustangs it's a VERY small world.

^^^ So sad that this is a photoshop ^^^
I like the amber corners a lot. May have to either paint mine or get some of the ebay ones?
I'm starting to think my cobra would look sick on some te37's

Pretty sure the front tire looks like its where the fender should instead of in it. Prove me wrong, I would love to see more pics and get in contact with the owner about the setup.

His SN95 is legit. ( , ) I work with him at and parking next to him made me want moar lo. Which resulted in me ordering some coils, his are set at the lowest. Control arms also maxed. I would know because I help him work on it.

My buddy Jon has an 03 Terminator Cobra that he is working on the stance right now. I am over in Afghanistan and he isn't done with the setup but once I get back I will get some pics up in this thread. Then I'll hold him at gun point to register and make an intro thread.....lol he's trying to keep it a secret.

Hillbilly, I love the way you are going about your Stang, I can't help but think of the 60's and 70's Muscle Era when I look at your car. Get you a nice bright Red paint job and some adjustable trac shocks with some trac bars(not wheelie bars for those who don't know) and it will look like it would belong right there in that moment.

As for the bulge, the reason why I assume he is going for that look, back in those days it was pretty pricey for aftermarket wheels(it was before knockoffs thrived) and the guys who worked on their own cars(shade tree mechanics) just said eff getting new wheels and would just put big rubber on their stockies. This was what my father told me, he had a 1972 Vega with a 350 running 7.8's in the 1/8 mile running stock wheels with over sized rubber. He also had a 1969 Pinto he was trying to squeeze a 427 Cobra Jet in but I came along and botched that plan......lmao! Now he is a sensible older man who buys what my mom tells him to buy, but he lives out his glory days with me when I work on mine.

Thanks for the kind words -your imagination went the right direction. late 70s/early 80s "street freak" movement is where I got most of my inspiration. Someday I may get my Cragar SS or a set of Keystone mags, but 'till then I'm glad the vw boys made it cool to rock cheapo truck wheels.

RE paint, the color is what brought me to the car, it's a 1yr only color. Aside from the trim holes needing to be patched up, the paint's in pretty good condition for the age (16yo).
trac bars (or slappers) would be cool, but this car has conventional springs, not buggy springs (like the muscle cars had that used the slappers).

Sounds like you'd be with me on my current daydream of ditching the hood and throwing on a tunnel ram intake w/ a pair of carbs.
