TORN BETWEEN TWO PONIES
Ok here is the deal I have a 90 LX 5spd 5.0 hatchand it is very clean and my brother told me about his GF's brothers stang it is also a 90lx hatch
I was told that the car was going up for sale b/c she had spun out and ended up bending the r/s axle and her mom didnt want the car in the family any more
b/c it was useless as a family car. Here are the following mods that this car has mac cai,mac shorty headders,mac H pipe, flow master 2 chamber cat back, and it has 373 gears installed and the trans was rebuilt in 04 and has a trans go shift kit and here is the kicker thay wanted 1,000 b/c it was clean
so i thought wow it must be junk for that kinda money causeI paid 2,500 for mine and itis realy cleanso Ill just buy it fix it and sell it. well when I got there there was a stang in the driveway that was show quality and thought to my self that is F!@#$ sick [sm=yikesomg.gif][sm=yikesomg.gif]any ways I knocked went in side and squared away the paperwork and thought hay its in thegarage Ill see it in a min or two well we B.S for a little while and proceded to walk into the garage and wow there was nothing in there she handed me the keys and said there it is and pointed to the car in the driveway and my jaw dropped[sm=jawdrop.gif] I mean this car is is prestine on a scale 1 to 10 this car is a 9.5 and mine is a 6 only bad part is that I dont like autos .is it possible to put a t5 in it BTW Ill put up some pics on sunday

RE: TORN BETWEEN TWO PONIES
Well congrats on the good buy!! Yes you can get a T5 in there with no problem, just make sure that you get all the parts off the donor car to do the swap. If possible have the donor car in the drive way to save time from running back and forth. I had an 86 that I converted to a 5spd. Since you saved money on the buy why not put a T56 in there??
