I'm pretty sure you can swap the nose out on the SN95s and the New Edge style Mustangs..Since everyone else posted pics of their beautiful Mustangs I figured I post a newer pic of my heap.

All these old cars and trucks are snowballs...some are just on a steeper slope then others!

Heh, thats anything but a heap. Its a nice stang. I am very sure there has been a kit made to do the swap and had i bought an SN95 over TGM i probably would have done that. But i also wouldn't have met you folks. Maybe later on in my life i will do something like that. There was a guy i worked with that had a yellow GT that was fairly new (around 09 i think) and someone hit the front of it in a parking lot. So he went and took the insurance money and made it look like the GT500 front end. It has a huge hood and stuff. It looked pretty cool and if i can find a picture i will post it but i am not sure if i ever took one.

I knew i had a picture.

It looks ok, and he went and stripped it of any badges i guess to try to make it a sleeper or something. I don't know.

I like where this is going!! I just sold my last stang over the wenter. SUPER sweet 98 black on black leather GT 4.6 4 valve supercharged fire breathing money pit. I had six of them from 94-98. If my computer would let me Id post some eye candy!! But anyway, how about a 91 xcab ranger with a 5.8 equipped with SVT supercharger, 373s,and 5speed from a 95 stang? She aint no show queen but she sure is fun!! my driver for the last few years. 20ish mpg and built mostly from junk yard!!

What motor did you swap into your GT? How much HP and PSI? "5 speed from a 95 stang" Why are you using the trans from a 95 stang? How much HP and PSI in the Ranger? Post some pics man I want to see this Ranger.

It takes some cutting and fabricating but you can put everything forward of the windshield from a New Edge onto an SN95. Not a direct swap though. IMO its not worth it and would be ugly. Well I guess with enough fabricating and cutting you can swap a lot of front ends.

GruesomeJeans- I think the front bumper and hood of the SN95 Cobras is one of the sexiest stock fronts especially the hood! I would agree with you on the V6s and GTs though its not really that great looking. I kinda prefer the looks of the New Edge over SN95 stock for stock.

Gruesom,this ranger is a blast!! Smoke the hides at 60mph!! Looks like its stright out the junk yard but it runs HARD! Its running the slighty worked motor from 94 or 95 lightning the trans is out of a parts car I had. I think its running about 345-350 at 20 psi. A friend at Troys auto body outside Warrenton mo built the stang and ranger. The stang had the 03 cobra drive train. Almost compleatly stock just cold air intake and a BBK h-pipe,SLP cat back. I wish I could post pix but this tower is wasted!! I will ASAP! I just hope this Bronco turns out the way I want. I just picked up a totaled f-150 4x4 with a 5speed and perfect running 5.8! Thinking of swapping. Hard decision because my Bronco only has 45,000 on it and its compleatly stock except paint. I do miss my 5speed!!

Having a 5 speed is awesome and i can say i miss jamming through gears feeling like a badass when in reality i am doing 65 in a 60... If i had the patience, money, and skills i would do a T-18 swap into mine which is only 4 speeds but i have never driven something like that and feel it would be kinda fun as long as i am not on the freeway. I just don't know the first thing about doing that kind of swap AND i have a freshly rebuilt C-6 now so i don't want to just give that up. I just kinda miss the stick..
