Hi all, long time lurker, anytime I had a question, I just did a google search, and found out what I needed on a forum somewhere, so I never felt I needed to join one. Then I found this one
.
A bit about myself, I'm not going to tell you my age, you do the math. I was 6 when the Mustang first came out, one of the cereal brands, I don't remember which, had little model mustangs as an in box premium, mom went nuts buying this cereal, because I wanted all the variations that were available, and have wanted a Mustang ever since.
My first car was a 1963 Galaxie 500 4 door sedan, talk about a boat, but when it was time to go somewhere, all my friends that had Mustangs, Camaros, and Dart sports, rode with me, 3 friends and a cooler in the back seat, whoo hoo, or out with the girl friend, who needed a back seat.
I finally purchased my first Mustang in 2001, when I bought a 95 GT, Dark Tourmaline Poly, about 105,000 miles, I still have it, looking close to 180,000 now but still runs great (Castrol Syntec ever since I bought it, (person I bought it from claimed he also used synthetic oil).
Front end has been rebuilt, Summit Racing lowering springs, KYB struts, new control arms, hubs, rotors, sway bar end links, Maximum Motorsports CC plates, J&M lower control arms in the rear, yea, I need to replace the uppers, kyb shocks. Bilstein shocks & struts waiting to be installed, have everything needed to upgrade the front brakes to cobras. Drivetrain is completely stock, 3.55 rear gears, 5 spd T-5. Interior redone, went from black & tan, to black & gray, custom rear seat delete, (the back folds down, so I have full use of the trunk), Corbeau gray cloth seats, nice seats, but the fabric sucks, I'll re-upholstery them some time in the near future. Seriously needs paint, who knows when that will happen, got a $2300 estimate from Maaco, ouch.
