heres a couple crappy interior pics. like i said i took it all out to put the sound deadener in. also i think im going to repaint the back panels. the rear deck panel was done so crappy so im going to have to remake that, (the kid used easy board and it looks like he chewed the speaker and brakelight holes lol.)

i think im going to just buy a new console instead of repainting.

Looks good, and the price is fair enough. Sounds like you've got a good plan laid out...

yeah $3500 is a good deal, i guarantee you could flip it for 5 grand if you tried to

congrats..... and my '89 was my favorite notch i ever had, seemed to run a load stronger than my '93 or '88, but it was unmolested as well

Finished mounting the battery box. what a pain it was to run the wire. I also installed a 255lph fuel pump while i had the tank down.

The coupe looks great. Glad you found a car.

Not sure if you remember me but you contacted me about buying my old 87gt from the new owner.

well i got the tko 500 trans in with an sfi billet steel flywheel, mcleod clutch, alum d/s, steeda quadrant, firewall adj. and cable. replaced the heater core and lined the floor with dynamat. i have to borrow a camera and i will take some pics. o i also swapped to the shortie headers with stage 8 hardware and a upr catted x-pipe.

i gotta say this thing moves out with the 5sp now. feels a lot faster and its way more fun to drive. ive missed my old 5sp mustang.

i just bought an aje k-member kit, with a-arms and spring perches.
