Project Bob
Since the MS project has fallen by the wayside I guess a build up thread on Bob's heart transplant is the next best thing...
Specs..
88 cop 5.0 mustang cop motor/c6/203/split tcase...
I guess I'll have to remove the 2F sticker from the rear window 
Start pics
Bob...
Nice clean 302..
auto.. (I still can't believe how clean the inside of this auto is... )

At the risk of sounding like Nolen ( ), aren't the Ford's the lightest domestic V8 around, too?

Buick all aluminum and some of the chevies (LS6???) that are totally al are lighter.
But a 302 is one of the smallest and lightest V8's out there.
Course, it is still a ford motor so it will suck the big donkey penile enhancement

It's got a cop motor, a 440 cubic inch plant, it's got cop tires, cop suspensions, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas. What do you say, is it the new Bluesmobile or what?

Yeah but nobody outside Nevada would even think once that it was a cop car. Half the time I don't even notice real NHP cars. 
Black with white doors, is the universal cop car paint scheme.

Paint it black and white, drag it to Katemcy and I'll bring the red and blue LED's. Or are they just blue down there?
Very cool rig!
