so i bought a Ford........., 1989 mustang LX 5.0 Options

[95st-celica]

not a ford guy by any means...more like a die hard chevy guy...and of course a toyota enthusiast...but i always, since i was little, loved the fox body style Stangs.......so i bought one about a month ago...CHEAP

i went down and took a look at it...didnt look too bad just really dirty, car started right up, ran good, but needed a few little things, nothing costly though. the only real problem the car had was that it would bog out when you gave it a little too much gas. I took a look at the carb and it was a edelbrock 750 cfm...WAY to big...so i picked up a 600 from my buddy, put it on in the pouring rain last friday night, and the car ran freakin awesome.

basicaly its an 89 with an 85 5.0 carburated motor swap. The car was oroginally a 4 cyc. car, and the LX body style makes them the lightest of the mustangs. No ground effx. no fog lights, none of that bullcrap. 5 speed. black on Red.

next up for it is an 8.8 posi, and eventually i would like to pick up a set of gt40 heads and cam the bittch.

heres a couple pics, and of course 2 vids of me driving it the way it should be driven...









Her first wash..

Hahaha I beat a Fox body 5.0 Mustang at the dragstrip in my truck once (Don't ask why I was running my 5.9 liter Dodge Ram at the drag strip.)

One of my friends used to have an '89 Mustang, 4 cylinder turbo. I have to say, it was meannnnn..... He has an '03 Cobra now. Meanerrrrrrrrrr....... I don't have respect for most Mustangs or Mustang owners. But they do have potential. Enjoy
