Just bought my Mustang.
As some of you may know I've been looking for a Mustang for awhile now since I've gotten rid of the white'93. Now I am the proud owner of a 1988 black Mustang. It has a BBK throttle body, E303 cam, andunderdrive pulleys. It's not perfect though. Heres a list of what its going to need:
- right mirror swivel doesn't work
- lights won't go off with the switch, wiring's all f'ed up in there so now its disconnected
- tranny pops outta 5th gear every once in awhile
- theres some rust on the bottom inside of the doors
- the paint on it has a lot of little scratches,the hatch is very weathered (hatch door used to be blue and was probably painted very cheaply)
- weather stripping on the back window isn't in very good condition.
- interior is missing some pieces under the steering wheel
-had to buy a new throttle positioning sensor to make it home
That's every little problem with the car so don't be surprised to see me around herea lot more often. Heres a quick pictureI took.

If you don't mind me asking, how many miles and how much$$$? I only ask because I want to see what picking up a car like that is running now a days. Thanks. It does look pretty good though, now the fun really starts.
