i'm thinking of getting a custome body kit that looks like the on on the 4 door made for the 2 door. i think it'd look cool
 
That looks amazingly good, all things considered! One question - why does it seem like the passenger front side is jacked up higher than the other three corners? Is it just a trick of perspective, or is the car sitting higher on that corner? Ok...so technically that's two questions.

It looks to me like the struts/springs are shot in the back...
 
springs are shot in the back, and the drives rear spring is busted to hell. but i'm suprised you guys like the 2 door better than the 4 door. i like the looks of it, but the condition is no where comparible. when i'm done doin all the body work i want to have the same paint scheme as the old one, but in Tuxedo black (look at the new Ford Fusions if you dont know wat it looks like, its pretty) with the red stipe done in T-Red.
 
thanks guys for checkin it out, i cant wait to see it when i'm done. it looks like i'm gettin a new job this week so i'll be making about 2 or more dollars an hour, so some of the bit work should be starting soon.
