Awesome. The spirit of "Junior Stock" is alive and well. Can't wait to see more about build.

Alan,

Great documentation!

I'm a huge fan of getting newer cars in Stock. They are plentiful and economical given their level of performance. And if you need a part there are dealers everywhere.

Hopefully this encourages more folks to get newer iron out there.

Re: The newest Ford Mustang GT in NHRA Stock Eliminator-Phas
 

For Pure Stock ..call it a 2005..it fits in the Rules.
Since the Engine is similar in all those years.
IHRA maybe compliant and add those years.

I take it you had a roll bar installed correct?

This is really cool, taking a newer car and doing the "dime rocket" approach as opposed to all the other new cars (mustang/challenger/Camaro) that have massive $$$$ dumped into them.

I hope this works really well for you Alan, good luck. (and chronicle everything with pic's please!)

[quote=ALMACK;502381]Yes Dan, I had to install a roll bar as per the rules.
This was my very first one I have ever done.
It came out better than I could have imagined.
The seats work as normal and even without swing out bars, the front seats can be removed and re-installed easily. :)

I did all the fitting of the S&W 8pt. kit and took the car to a welder and he welded it all up.
I had to turn the headrests around because the seat backs now do not lean back as far as stock with the roll bar.
Someday, when I can afford them, I want to buy the adjustable ones.

AND you kept the back seats...
Just in case someone needs a RIDE ;-)

Can you run VP C10 or C20 or Sunoco 260 GT?
They are all unleaded.

Dan

If I am reading the list correctly, I would say C10 and Sunoco 260 GT are good.
Did you mean 260 GTX ?

Don't see C20 listed:
