This is my car a 1994 Mustang GT. It’s been my first and only Mustang. It belonged to my older cousin who I was very close with and sadly he lost his life back in 2009 in a car accident. When I found out he wanted me to have this car I decided to restore it back to its former glory. Here is a little background on the car. He bought it back in 1999 with 53k miles on it. As a young kid whenever I would travel to Washington for family gatherings for the holidays I would get to go cruising in it. Basically, I felt like the coolest person on the planet and I wanted one just like it. But he moved on to bigger and “faster” things and the car got parked in the driveway from 2003 to 2010. I almost bought it from him when I was 16 but I couldn’t afford the insurance, I almost bought it from him again in 2007 but I couldn’t afford what he was asking for it and it needed some work. I found out after he passed that he was planning on giving me the car and I received it in 2010. I felt it was my duty to restore it because it was looking pretty sad after sitting for so long in the Washington elements.
When I got the car it had 94k miles on it and the interior was in pretty good shape. The engine bay was pretty dusty put was in pretty good shape as well. The paint was starting to peel off and it hadn’t had a bath in who knows how long. I sold my 1998 VW GTI VR6 that was my first car to put together some money to get it back on the road. The very first thing I did was changed all the fluids and get it started. Luckily all it needed was a new battery to get started. The car didn’t feel like it had much power and the check engine light get coming on. I checked the codes and it said it was running lean. I bought some new oxygen sensors from Ford and it ran perfectly. Here is a list of things I have done on the car.
