Default New guy with boosted coupe

Hey guys im newish to the mustang world. I had an 86 back in highschool; but never did anything with it. For the last 4 years ive been building and tuning Dodge Srt4s. Well long story short my last one spun a bearing on a $6,000 engine and I threw in the towel.

This is my previous monster, It made 610Whp/548Wtq on 112 and a 62mm turbo.

And here is what I picked up. I honeslty bought it for how clean and rust free the body is. Everything else was a bonus and im still learning about the car and whats into it.

Wow sweet find! You're going to have a lot of fun with a turbo Fox. Do you know what cylinder heads and camshaft it has? It looks like a good start for a track car, what were your intentions for it?

Also what's your plans for the exterior looks? Any changes, or just paint the hood? We've a ton of odd and ends restoration parts, if you need any. Let me know!

Good stuff! Looks like the top end was really well built with high end components. Any plans for building the block down the road or upgrading the block for more boost?

Love the grabber blue paint scheme idea. Should turn out to be a great project!
