Been shopping around for quite some time for a V8 coupe project car. As is "normal" with "older folks".... we tend to try to acquire the things that we wanted when we were younger. Try to find a straight 83-93 Mustang that is in decent shape for under $5,000.... Not happening in my area.

Target goal was a V8. If I pick 302 to 4.6.... its 302 hands down for me.

Long story short. We brought home a 94 GT Convertible. Its straight. No major rust. There are a LOT of little things that need to be fixed.

Needs a full exhaust from cats back
Power steering pressure line
regulators (or fiddling) on 3 out of 4 windows
top won't function
brake rotors
there MIGHT be a rumble in the rear axle... hard to hear over the exhaust.


But. There it is. Mostly complete. No real damage. Just some neglect.

After downloading an owners manual (for a 96).... Seems that the top works like a champ. Operator error. :)

That looks to be a clean car from the picture. Welcome to the site. Start yourself a build thread and keep us updated with whatever you do to the car.
