However, fortunately for me -there are so very few dings in the body. I originally thought there were only two total -but after giving it a good shine -I found a couple more that were less obvious. -But still very happy.
I can't wait to darken up the faded plastic wiper cowl, re-paint the wipers, tint the windows and spray the rear center reflector (all but the GT lettering) and light it OEM looking (if Ford were to light them originally -as they should have).
And I think this will end up being the first MegaSquirted car for me unless I can find a 97 engine harness. They aren't coming into the yards any more and I don't have a 97 harness to replace the modified one in this car -unless someone reads this and happens to have an un-needed one laying around for me to buy. So it is most likely going to get MS. That is OK though because it is likely to get boosted later on.Last edited by KLZE Porsche; December 7, 2015, 10:22 AM.Success is a measure of determination!

I never looked into the switch until you just asked. It is definitely aftermarket because it is a separate rocker switch. It is still done very professionally. Since I have seen 3 of them now in this area -I am leaning towards the thought that Southern Comfort Conversions (now defunct) was who was doing them for local Ford Dealerships: http://blog.al.com/businessnews/2009...ersions_b.html
Does yours have a rocker switch? I never took notice of where the switch was in the other two that I saw.Last edited by KLZE Porsche; December 8, 2015, 08:27 PM.Success is a measure of determination!

I'm a little confused. It has GT Swirlies and lower GT badging below the doors, a GT Rear bumper and Center Tail Reflector but the CLuster Reads 120MPH top speed
So I'm guessing this was a GT with a SE or Base Cluster installed (which I'm not sure why you would do this as the MPH would be off due to gearing etc.)
Makes me wonder about the mileage since the cluster has been changed out from another Probe.
At this point not sure it matters it just caught my eye. Something is up with this part of the vehicle.Last edited by Ryan96se; December 8, 2015, 08:37 PM.1993 PGT 342K Miles - Sold

Sorry KLZE. I looked at the pictures more carefully and came to that exact realization of it being a GT. Wouldn't the MPH be off on the cluster due to different MTX gearing and VSS gearing? He might not have been doing 70 like he thought. Probably screaming that car way faster than what he thought...
I'd be worried about the tranny also...lolLast edited by Ryan96se; December 8, 2015, 08:42 PM.1993 PGT 342K Miles - Sold

Any chance you could post up some photos of yours and also the rocker switch? I will get some of mine this afternoon when I get home. If we can compare photos of ones that have been done -perhaps we can track the lineage. I also have a top sitting aside somewhere that I pulled from one of them in the JY. I can get photos of that as well.Success is a measure of determination!
