Default New Stang 1990 LX

Well I needed to get a winter car so I could park my 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix Top swap'd and cam'd GT.
So I wanted something that my GP did not have so I really wanted a rwd car. I found this 1990 Ford Mustang LX hatchback 2.3L for 1K I ended up getting it for 825$. It has goodies such as very nice Sony CD player, remote starter, and some snow tires in the rear. I like the car a lot. I plan on starting a project out of it this summer when I get the GP back out.

So far I have started to tint the back 3 window, and installed my HD radio adapter. I plan on repainting the rims and painting all the black on the front and back bumper before this winter.
Heres some pics














Car that is is saving

Don't think so. I will either put a 2.3L turbo engine in it or I will leave it and just use it as transportation or just do some simple 2.3L NA mods and do some suspension mods

Ya my Grand Prix is my big project but that is mostly in a straight line because its too heavy and FWD sucks for road and autoX racing. So the Stang might be used for in the summer if I have the money for it.

Well for now it going to be a driver and do some little things. After thinking things over if I keep the car my friend and I are going to make it a little auto X car out of it. And maybe one day put a different engine in it.
