My second Mustang
Hi everyone. My first car was a '66 289 auto back in 1977. I paid $75 for it and it was a mess. The trunk was held shut with a coat hanger, the front trans seal leaked onto the exhaust pipe and filled the car with smoke, it had bald snow tires year 'round and the only brake that really worked was the front right. I loved it. Now that all but one child is out of the house, I picked up a '95 5.0 convertible a couple of months ago. I think this was in worse shape than my old one. I bought it dirt cheap and plan on making a 10 footer (in my eyes) out of it. My youngest seems to be interested in turning wrenches, so we have a lot of fun with it. Here are some pics.

The last pic is after I put it the big pieces back together. I still have loads of stuff to sort out.
I've been a mechanic for a while and an aircraft mechanic for 30+yrs, but there's a lot I don't know. Forums like this are invaluable. I look forward to getting back into the Mustang.
