Default I'm Back

Sorry I have been gone so long. I was sidelined with a lot of health issues, that my wife,doctors, nurses have been helping me with. I am almost back to normal.
Unfortunately I lost the 84 Mustang GT and the money I paid on it, but it was worth it for health reasons. Now I am I have a physical therapist coming in twice a week to help me get my legs back. I'm getting there slowly.
On to some better news my neighbor is selling me his 2 Mustangs 1 is needing a few repairs the other is a parts car. 2 to make one which I can deal with. I think they are 2000 or 2001 models and both droptops. Now I have a lot of catching up to do.

Wow Man,

Sorry to hear about this!

I'm glad that you're on the road to recovery and I would love to help you get back on your feet. Let me know when you pick up the new 'Stang and you'll have a $100 gift card in the mail to start moddin'!

Hope this helps.

-Will

Thank You Sir. I will let you know when it happens. I should be healed up and completely walking by the middle of Aug. Your gift is much appreciated.

Thank You. I know what I would like to do and what I can't afford. The car is more of needed repairs then I will be able to do some modding. It's a V6 car would much rather have a GT bit they are not in my price range. But I am studying up on what can be done to a V6 to make it more fun to drive.

Apparently you can make quite a lot of power out of those 3.8 engines with a procharger. Quick search had about 290 at the wheels on a fairly stock setup. Get some mac long tubes and convert to duals (should be able to find some gt takeoffs for the exhaust and valence), find a gt 8.8 with tloc and hopefully some better gears for pretty cheap too.
