Default barn find 89 mustang gt

i just got a 89 5.0 hatchback pony that had been sitting in a garage since 1995 with 77k on the clock. It was in a wreck but no frame damage and the body panels have been replaced. All of the parts appear to be there and most of the work is cosmetic and clean up...i will be looking for pointers and tips. i am new to 5.0 power but have always been a fan and admirer of these cars.

so hello to all
