Hello all. New member here from SW FL. This is my second Mustang, I had an 85 GT vert when I was 17 that I crashed unfortunately but here I am 15 years later, back behind the wheel of a Mustang. My new daily driver is a 98 GT that I picked up a couple of weeks ago. She only has 27000 miles on her and the motor is completely unmolested!! She was repainted about 5 years ago with a mediocre job but all in all its pretty good.

Previous owner did Cobra style hood, Eibach springs, o/r x-pipe, exhaust, wheels, billit grill that I blacked out and horrible halo headlights that I have already replaced with stock. I also picked up a set of factory 17" '95 Cobra wheels I hope to get on this week.

Here is a horrible pic from the sellers ad, I haven't taken any shots myself yet.

Welcome. Car's looking good. I don't like the billet grill though, never really been a fan of those.

Welcome from Orlando!!

Your not too terribly far, I think I will be taking you up on the offer to work on the car soon!

I hear you on the billet! I removed it but it just looked funny to me all empty, so I painted it black! Not great, but better. Here is how she sits in the parking lot right now.

Hood unlatched

Well the hood unlatched somehow while driving home a couple weeks back breaking the windshield, denting and scratching the fender also doing a number on the glass hood. I guess I should have taken the hood pin thing a bit more seriously.

So now after a year I actually have a chance to start doing some mods and repairs. I have a few things in mind and I ordered a number of things for her. Let the fun begin.
