LOW BUCK MUSTANG!! 93 notch 5.0
I just bought this 93 notch 5.0 automatic from a friend last week .He slid it in a ditch and they totaled it. Tweaked the core support a little, scuffed two of the black cobras, and put a dent in the front bumper. He decided he didn't want to buy it back so he gave me dibs. I got it for $1200 and he sold me the ponys for another $100 and the in dash cd, dvd player for $50. I pulled the core support out with my giant pry bar, pushed the dent out of the bumper and you cant even tell it was in the ditch. I put the ponys on it and painted the rotors and drums from red to black. The red paint with black wheels was too much of a contrast ,I didn't like it. Looked like rice. I want to paint the black cobras silver and put them on my 88 gt vert. That along with the aftermarket 1pc headlights made it look like an import. I pulled the 1pc headlights and put on craigslist and sold em same day for $70 bux. then ordered a brand new 6pc set of oem headlights with clear corners from late model resto for $105 with shipping. They should be here in a couple days. A week before my friend wrecked it, we put a 3:73 rear end in and a set of bassanni equal length shorty headers with OR h-pipe and flows. Sounds good. Not fast but is nice to drive. It has tweed grey front seats with a blue cloth back seat. Not sure whats going on there. Also door panels have been spray painted and its like the paint never dried so they are sticky. I plan on fixing the interior up, buffing the cheap paint job and swapping a bunch of stuff from my 88 GT convertible to this. I have a 88 gt convertible with a bunch of work done, 5spd swap, maf conversion, 373s, short shifter, e303 cam, too much to list. This car I have had since college. I had a injector stick open and hydro lock the engine and I think it broke a ring because ever since it has smoked. What I would like to do is take the sweet running 5.0 and auto from the notch and install in the convertible with the original rear end making it a nice drivable car again like it was when I bought it. It was originally an auto anyways. I would then like to freshin my motor from 88 vert and install into the notch along with the 5spd. making it a more fun car!. I have edelbrock upper and lower, bbk TB and egr spacer, 24lb injectors, afpr, bbk cold air, underdrives, too much to list and a set of dart heads. like I said, should make the notch FUN. along with the required little bit of NOS. ANYWAYS these are the only pics I have of the car with my cell. If there is any interest in this thing I will take good pics and follow some of the process. I am going to run the ponys for now but I would like to install the chrome cobras from my black 88 onto the notch. But that wont happen until I can afford some tires for the chrome cobras, The fronts are good but the rears have BFG Drag radials and I plan on letting the wife drive the notch so the drag radials have to go. anyways enjoy! Now you all wonder why I dont get anything done on my trucks. I have 4 project threads going just on this forum. Let alone the ones I dont talk about haha. its automotive A.D.D.
