Less things to break and they are lighter
The sensor is for the oil temp gauge and I always weld a "skid plate" to the bottom on the pans on my cars that are lowered.


Just an update on the car....
Its back apart again and geeting all of its pieces painted the right way(spend way too much on paint this time,3 gallons of clear) ana finishing powdercoating the rear suspansion and gas tank and fuel and brake lines. Im collecting as many ferfect or NOS parts to make this thing look as jaw-dropping as I can. Picked up alot more S/S fasteners for most of the undercarriage stuff and engine compartment. I am geeting pretty stupid with this car and I dont know if I will even want to drive it when its done. I am gonna do everything I can(including selling other cars) to finish it for 08 Carlisle. It will be there elevated with mirrors under it

I do need a good factory sunroof thats in like mint condition if anyone happens to have one. I will even rent one for the show if you dont want to sell it

I also need help thinking of a personalized license plate for the car. It can be up to 7 letters and 2 spaces. Any ideas?????

Nice Jackson. That car is going to be the best TD ever!!

jackson, instead of wasting money on overpriced dyno mat, go to home depot and go to the roofing aisle. they have a gutter/valley material that is just like dynomat, a little thinner, but at the price you could do the whole car twice for what dynomat on your trunk would cost.

as far as license plates, sweet16, shelbyx, x model, dohc 16v, proto rt, thats all i got for now.

somebody said they wanted to see jacksons collection, here is the parts collection with 2 r/ts Jackson's TIII Spirit R/T's and TIII Parts Collection Photo Gallery by Ralph Scott at pbase.com
envy, pure envy, lol!!

Some day I will make my R/T look like that. Very nice work Jackson, very very nice.
I wish you where local to me I would bring my car to your shop and get working on it. I don't have the sapce to do this at my house.

That collection is just sickening!! All I can do is say "Good lord!!" and shake my head!

The past two weekends I have been at Jackson's house and .............................................. wow its a two and a half hour drive from my house and I do it with a smile the whole way. A Muslim is required to go on a Pilgrimage to Mecca and every TIII guy is required to go to Jacksons house. I learned so much and the best part is that his daily driver spirit rt will soon be mine. As for his tona the pics dont do it justice and i cant say much more.

Thanks Ryan,I hopefully this weekend the it will be all yours so I can go get my BLUE IROC R/T!!!! Oops,I let that one out to soon......
I should have some updated pics in a month or so after I get the car put back together after the real paint job. Got myself a near mint sunroof today that I have been looking for so I am one step closer to where I want the car to be when its done.

[ryans4]

NO thank you.We got the tranny in should be on the road tommorw.

[ryans4]

should make it clear that im getting jacksos winter daily driver not the one that took 3rd at carlisle.

[Turbo224]

If there was ever someone that deserves a Blue R/T, Jackson would be the guy! The blue one going to be a factory resto, or something you fool around with?

[itsbudda]

as far as it goes for the blue iroc, we know it'll be in good hands

[Blue Iroc R/T]

I knew you couldn't keep a secret very long. At least it is moving about 400 miles closer to me. So, I may get to see it someday. Congrats!

I think so too....a talking xe with a tIII would rule........
