Default cousin died and gave me his stang, tell me about it

hi my cousin committed suicide on january 1st this year and i got his mustang. i would love for anyone to help tell me about this car. i dont know much about mustangs only 4x4 jeeps so now im getting into mustangs. it is a 2001 gt. so im assuming it has the 4.6 sohc 2v modular engine. it appears to have an 8.8 rear axle. and i would be guessing but i think it is a tremec tr3650 transmission..the interior is gutted and the carpet is gone. i have all the interior pieces though. also the hood doesnt latch. if you could help me that would be much appreciated

oww, that sux, really sorry to hear about that.
as for the car, i'm not 100% sire but i think ford started to put tremic on 03 and 04 models, so yours is probably T45. the hood latch might just need to be lubed.
