Well since the 1mz has been giving me trouble an i needed a break from it before i just threw a stick of tnt in an walked away i desided it was time to start fixing lizs old car
 Little bit of a backstory. Shes been a big mustang fan since forever thanks to her mom the loves them too so when she finished basic training for the army the first thing she bought was this mustang that a friend of mine She paid 2000 for it (witch looking back was probably about 500 to much) it was in fairly desent shape other than a slipping tranny ok before i go any farther Car specs 91 mustang lx hatchback 2.3l 4cyl nonturbo Auto trans When she bought it the stang was bone stock. The first big thing that was done was the rims were changed to the ones in the above pic I traded my old 90 ford festiva for them an 3 radios. -------------------- 95 gt coupe, v6 swap weekend toy

The plan is to fix all it little problems an get it back to its former daily driver status Then from there new springs, shocks, intake, header to match the 2.5 exhaust thats on it already Upgrade to coil packs fix the body work an get her repainted black If i can get it off my buddy cheap enough one of my friends has the 2.3 turbo motor out of a t bird i might try an swap in with a new header fmic an a desent bov an hopefully rt un ok on the stock turbo computer But thats along shot -------------------- 95 gt coupe, v6 swap weekend toy
