New guy from WA state

[ironhorsewayne]

Hey all, new guy here. Just picked up my 2nd mustang. A Tropic Green '01 GT convertible. Never was a convertible guy before but this thing came with a laundry list of mods at a great price so I couldn't turn it down. There are a few things I want to add (and a few things I might remove). Anyway, I'll do my best to be active around here.

Edit: as requested here's the mod list.
Nitrous Express NOS setup
SR Performance coilovers
UPR A arms
Maximum Motorsports Strut tower bar
Maximum Panhard Bar
Unknown catback exhaust
Short Throw Shifter
Unknown cold air intake
3.73 rear end gears
Ford racing diff cover with bearing support
Bama tuner
Staggered wheel setup on Nitto NT555 g2
Sequential tails
Mach1 lip
MMD styling bar which I installed last week...NEVER AGAIN
Aftermarket headlights and yellow fogs

Thanks! She has most of the mods I would have done if I was starting from scratch so I'm super happy. I've always liked green even though I've never wanted a green mustang. It is a very nice color.

Beautiful vert! the color is really nice. Feel free to post the mod list, if any place would be interested in the nitty gritty; it's here

Thanks! Edited original post with mod list! I will, admittedly probably be removing the NOS kit. I think I want to add some sort of Carbon fiber ducktail spoiler and a carbon fiber cowl hood. Termi bumper (sooooo original) Eventually change the wheels to something a bit "cooler" (even though these are very nice wheels), possibly air ride and maybe even paint it Gulfstream Aqua (in a very unrealistic part of this dream)

Edit: also would like to boost it someday but that's probably faaaar off. I really wanna hear that whiiiiiine

I really like the yellow fogs. What type of driving do you do with the car? It has a pretty cool suspension set-up. The carbon hood with the green or aqua would be raw as fuck. Huge fan of colored cars with black carbon hoods. Also a fan of super chargers lollll
I have 2 of those wheels, what are they?

 

[ironhorsewayne]

I just like cruising but I could see myself auto crossing it. I also think the carbon hood would look sick on either color. Those wheels are the American muscle bullit style. These are 17" and I don't know the exact width. I'll have to measure. Surprisingly the guy gave me a spare front wheel. This whole car was a killer deal hahaha.
Edit: it also came with a beefy aftermarket sway bar that I haven't installed yet

Thanks for the welcome! The body/paint itself has some issues but the color hides it well.

Looks for the "build ups & projects" thread and create yourself a build thread. Its a great way to track your progress, its your thread, and we all get to watch your car evolve

 

[ironhorsewayne]

Will definitely do that. Might be slow going at first but I'll put some work in on it for sure

Done and done!

Wayne's Tropic Green New Edge GT

My Vert GT. I have a few plans for it. Installed the styling bar in the first week of owning it. Hopefully I'll be able to keep this thread exciting.I think the first thing on my agenda is to remove the NX NOS system. I just don't honestly see myself using it enough. Selling it to fund some...

Nice convertible for sure. I've always liked mine too.

Welcome to the unofficial green mustang club! Nice car and color.

 

[ironhorsewayne]

Thanks guys! You know, green wasn't my first choice but after owning it, it's a really nice green. I said the same thing about my laser red back in the day. Bought it on a cloudy day and it just seemed like a boring red (but the price was right) the first sunny day BAM that color just exploded off of every corner.

You gotta love Ford painted vehicles for that!
I get what your saying about the green. I wasnt a fan of my Cobras paint mostly because it sat inside for most of its life and I never seen it outside.
My Performance Red cobra is red with a shaded sun shine. When the clouds part and the sun shines, the paint shifts to a brilliant orange. Makes looking at the car more interesting
