'88 5.0 notch back, 5 speed. Purchased it new off the lot in 88. Little done to it except (re-painted): air silencer gone, K&N, Ford Motosport 2 1/4 H-pipe and 3:55 gears, Walker Dynomax 2 1/2 cat back and Ceneterforce clutch. Still a blast to drive!

'91 LX hatch. Fairly uncommon Crystal Blue/Crystal Blue car. Originally a 2.3L auto, now sporting the same 2.3 backed by a T5 out of an '85 Turbo Coupe. The motor was rebuilt 2 years ago and I did some port work on the head. Mostly just cleaning up the bowls. I use a tubular exhaust manifold from a late model Ranger instead of the cast iron manifold. I swapped axles and rotors for 5-lug parts and now run 16" '94 GT wheels. (waffle ponies :) ) and 245/55-ZR16 Goodyear GS-C's I'm thinking about switching over to the later front spindles so I can go up a little bit in rotor size. The car is driven daily and gets 27 mpg with the A/C on and 30mpg with it off.

Fresh paint and interior are in the works right now. After the cosmetics are done, I'm going to start building a turbocharged 2.3 a'la Thunderbird Turbo Coupe, or Mustang SVO.

THATS WHAT FRIENDS ARE FOR....WISH I COULD HAVE HELPED YOU OUT MORE
THE BEST OF LUCK WITH YOU CAR
IF I COULD HELP I WILL;)

I had a 2000 v-6 mustang with a mac cold air intake and a GT take off exhaust system with the H pipe and flowmaster 40 series non delta flow mufflers that car sounded good.

Then I got a 2003 v-6 mustang and put a mac cold air intake and a mac cat back system.

Now I drive a 2005 ford explorer. Towing the boat with the mustangs sucked. But i am a ford man and I stick with them. Not sure if that is good or bad.

I know im going to get knocked for having the V-6. But you come to jersey at the age of 18-21 and get insurance on this car. The average insuarnce price for me was a little under 5000.00 and I have no points on my license. So that is why I did not get the GT.

But ill tell you what the v-6 mustangs are pretty fast if you do some work to them. My friend has a 2000 with gears a shift kit, exhaust, intake, and posi. That car is fast.

holy crap! $5000.00
my 5.0 was 500 every 6months, full coverage, in crowded lake county IL, At the time i was 23, maybe alittle older but still young enough to do stupid things :D

put a blower on the 6'er, power of the gt, insurance of the v6!

[godspeed]

Thats great Ron, trust it was worth the wait.

[81hydrostream]

Well I live in New Jersey. We have the great pleasure of having the highest insurance rates in the country. Lucky me

Use to have an 89GT. Best damn car I've ever had.

Helping my brother build up a 70 fastback. Gonna have an EEC IV fuel inj. 351C2V w/hyd. roller cam/700R trans and 9" w/4.11 detroit locker. One of these days we might actually finish it.

[ShorePounder]

A 700R4 behind a Cleveland? This I gotta see! I don't think I've ever heard of anyone doing such a thing. I've seen AODs behind em but never one of the General's trannys. What flexplate and converter do you use?

[Raceman]

Well, even though it's a really nice car I've decided to take my 67 500 Shelby apart and sell it on E Bay in pieces. Here's why:

Hell Rob, you ain't never had no respect fur me.:D :D :D Even not, I ain't serious. actually I hate car whores about as bad as anybody............. the ones that part out buildable cars for a quick buck, or buy/build clones and pass em off as authentic. The ole' Shelby's safe and the only time it'll change hands is when one of my heirs get's hold of it (assumin' some judge doesn't do it first for chile' suppote' for wunna them college girls I've been stalkin':eek: )

[Hot Shot Merc]

Good.I would have to throw up if ya parted that old girl out :p

[godspeed]

check that link the steering wheel got 4000 bucks for it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :eek: :eek: :eek:

[bahamatrama]

To jump in late here. I have been a fox mustang fan since I was 11. Dad brought home a turbo 4 than later the first 4bbl 5.0. I thought they where the fastest cars ever. Currently I have an 84 street/strip car a 97 saleen cvt and my favorite 93 lightning (mustang with a bed on it) I have owned 15 over the years. Thinking on a new 05

[Bill Schwab]

Don't have a Mustang, but would a Shelby-American CSX 4000 with an aluminum Holman-Moody port injected tunnel port side oiling 427 qualify?

Sandi just picked up her 2006 Mustang GT Premium. Really nice car, loaded too.

[E-tec1]

2000 model, got it for my kid as his first car(figuring a V6 would be safe) squeeks them in 4 gears, lots of power over three grand, he never got a ticket, every time I drive it there's a cop watching me. They are definatly awesome cars for the money.

[AlaskaStreamin]

Just finished repainting the engine compartment, engine, etc. and added a bunch of chrome and aluminum. http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/8/web/2132000-2132999/2132855_16_full.jpg
Don't know what I'm going to do for the rest of the winter. :confused:

[THE HOSER]

god speed love the hood
heres mine

[ShorePounder]

We got her an '06 in Vista Blue with tan interior and the Pony Package. she fell in love with it when she saw it. It's got the 4.0 V6 and automatic trans. While it doesn't quite have that V8 tone, its no slouch from stoplight to stoplight. It makes her happy and that's all that counts.

[ShorePounder]

We're not into leather(for any reason :) ) so cloth it is.

[Scream And Fly]

Brian, that's a sweet lookin' Mustang. I like that color a lot. Sandi just picked up a loaded GT Premium 5-speed, and I've been having a lot of fun with it. Awesome car. I want to run it against my Z28 or SS to see what happens. :)

The V6 is a very potent package these days. They did a great job with it.

[ShorePounder]

Thanks Greg! I was impressed with its performance as well. That's a sharp GT too. I'd be curious to see how it stacked up against an LSx powered car. Joy toyed with the idea of a red one, she liked the darker red but when she found the blue one and it had the different grill and wheels (she didn't care for the Halibrand look-alikes that are standard on the V6 cars) she was sold and soon thereafter so was the car. Judging from her recent road stories, she's getting a radar detector for Mother's Day. :)

[Scream And Fly]

The new Mustang really impresses me. My family has had MANY GTs over the years, including a Cobra, and I have to say that the current car is the best modern Mustang yet. The V6 car would probably run good against a 5-liter IROC or Trans Am 3rd Gen - maybe even beat it.

Good luck with the new ride - it's awesome!

Greg

[ShorePounder]

Now I gotta find a bigger turbo for my little 4-pop fox body. We drove my '91 to the dealership that day. When we were waiting for paperwork to be processed I jokingly looked over and said "I'll race you home" She didn't hesitate or even blink and replied "I'll win" Can't argue with the truth. Oddly enough, my '91 was purchased by my mother new at the same dealership.

[Scream And Fly]

Oh man, your wife has a faster car than you. Not good Brian. :D

[godspeed]

gotta have the gt big differnce in power but the v6 has improved , plus it has the good tone (gt) did you see my exhaust??

[Mr.Rude]

I have an 03 GT with a 5.4L DOHC from a navigator with a 2004 Cobra blower, Accufab 100MM throttle body, 90MM mass air kit, 60LB injectors, DiabloSport tuner with MAF.IA adjuster, and Comp cams custom grinds. It has a 4R70W trans with a man rev valvebody, 3500 stall converter with 4.10 gears! Not sure of power yet, still in the build up stage of getting it sorted out.

[Mr.Rude]

Here are some pics that I took during mock-up, they are the most recent that have.

[godspeed]

should fly , doing any head work ???

[Mr.Rude]

No, probably not. I have to sell it when it gets going again. Was building it for a serious street/strip car. I lost my job a few months ago and the income is WAY less than before. Fortunately I have all the parts, just gotta put them on. The goal for the car is to be in the 500RWHp range after custom tuning.

[Ted Stryker]

500 rwhp should be obtainable, but the low to midrange torque shoud be very refreshing...

[Noah1]

04 Cobra
470hp and 482tq blower only
576 and 618tq on spary

I, too have a '67 fastback. She needs total restoration, but is a solid rust-free car to use as a platform to build a nice car. This is the replacement for my first one (my first car), which I was forced to sell about ten years ago.

The "new" one...
111733

The "old" one...
111732

I also have a '65 fastback. Not nearly as nice, but definitely fixable. The '65 will be a GT350 clone when finished. Both will have big inch stroker small blocks, 5 or 6 speeds, and some serious chassis/suspension upgrades.
