New to Mustangs
My name is Sawyer and I live in the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota. I'm just about to pick up my first Mustang. '89 LX notchback. Specs on it:
Bout 25k on the rebuilt 302 bored .30 over.
25k on a rebuilt T5.
GT40 Heads
Trick Flow intake
75mm throttle body
FPR255 Walbro fuel pump
A/c eliminator
BBK long tube headers into Flowmaster mufflers
Centerforce clutch
4" cowl hood
17x9 Cobra R wheels
Fresh paint a year ago
Pics the seller had in his ad.
I just sold my GSR swapped EF Honda. It had loads of goodies. But I quickly realized FWD=Fail Wheel Drive with decent power in such a light car. About 200HP in a 2100 pound car.
Also got this for poor weather. '78 K20. Hasn't even had a hiccup in my year and a half of owning it. I'm sure its well past 200k. The odo doesn't work and looks like there's dust on the numbers.
Had this scooter for awhile this summer. It was badass. Big bore kit. Bigger carb. Pipe. Trans upgrades. It hauled the mail for a scooter.
Sold this to buy the scooter. '82 K10 lifted 4 inches on 35s. I realized I didn't need it 'cause I already had the K20
Traded my Talon projects to a buddy for that pickup. Both AWD TSis
'93
'91
And my favorite vehicle I've owned was the first. 1975 Jeep Wagoneer with a 401 big block. Went ANYWHERE.
I'll have more pics of my new 'Stang when I pick it up this weekend.

And I'm only just 20! Just having a hard time finding something I like. Always loved the look of Fox body notches. And have always wanted a RWD V8. So this popped up and at the same time someone offered to buy my Honda. Broke even on that and have some cash left over to get the Mustang and home. And get it registered and insured.
