Default My first father/son project!

Here is my 1984 Mustang L that I acquired from a cousin of mine who had deserted it. It came in a ridiculous blue color inside and out and a 2.3. My goal is to have this up and running by June for me and my son to go cruisin' around in.

First thing is to get the engine compartment cleaned up so I can put the 302 I have had stashed away in.Any suggestions or constructive comments are welcome.
