Default New from Wisconsin

Hello everyone,

I am Troy, I am 45. I have been into imports for many years. I recently purchased a 1982 Mustang GT with Tops. 302 v8 4spd with 106,000 miles on it.
It needs a front windshield, exhaust from cat back, heater fixed, and new clutch. The seems to also need a paint job maybe later. The cars run excellent.
I will looking for some help with some upgrades in the very near future. I do not know anything about these kind of cars other then when I was younger I rode in a turbo'd version and it was brand new.

Here is a picture of what i have to work with.

perhaps some of you may give me some ideas on what i can do.

I am looking for about 400-450hp maybe even supercharging it.

I look forward in perhaps meeting some of you some day.

Thanks,
