well ge didnt.. he put 350 miles on it.. he told me its not going anywhere.. he gets offers to buy it daily from what i hear.. had a older fella, about 65 or so tell him it looked like a brand new mustang (in person it really does from how clean it looking it is). offered him upwards of 10k for it.. beats me.. he's my best friend though, so hes priceless in my eyes

Why can't he get into modding? WellI guess I amkind of hooked up too, but here is what I have done inthe last couplemonths:

70mm TB polished PP=5 bucks (I bought a set of tires from 88GTtreetrod for 75 and I had 4 20s I told him tonot worry bout the change lol he was given me the damn TB!!)
65mm EGR (I gave it a lil porting tomatch)= free Wythors sent it to me for free, he even paid shipping!!!
Explorer upper and lower=100bucks I bought a explorer motor and parted it out
70MM maf= 20 bucks pulled froma lincoln towncar at the pull a part.
I spent a total of 125 bucks and freed up my whole intake tract, I am gettin restricted bad by the e7s though

So I'd say a cobra intake is roughly 350, TB andEGR about 210, MAF about 170 depending. I'dsay I came out pretty well!

Edit: well I also bought the 255 lph, an a9l, and the NOS!!!for a total of roughly $585

GT seats.. hood.. tons of new stuff on that car.. 3 core radiator... it's worth it in the end

Man,your car looks like it sat in saltwater for a while.J/K !! Don't know if you tried this,but take your seats and carpet to a carwash and pressure wash everything with soap,rinse,then let it all sit in the sun to dry.Trust me this is the easiest way I've ever done it.They will look real good and clean when they dry.Try it!!Oh and good luck with everything..

 

[Boss 351]

more pics please... That car isn't in bad shape, just looks like a diamond in the rough.

I'd rent one of those steam cleaning things to clean the seats... you can also pay someone to do it. It would cost me 60 bucks CANADIAN to get someone to come over and clean my seats.

Ryan, It took me 3 years to finally do motor work to my car, someday buddy, someday. lol
