    I like the factory paint scheme as well. If I decide with the stock GT ground effects look, I will keep it two-tone. If I decide to go with the Cobra kit, it will just be twilight blue. I've had silver, red and black Mustangs but never had a blue one. ;)

    I was hoping to run to the salvage yard over the weekend to look for a dash but life got in the way. Friday I got a new fuel tank (JEGS), fuel pump and sending unit (LMS) and was hoping to get a hard copy of the 1991 Ford Mustang shop manual but unfortunately I got a copy of the 1996 Ford...

    Thanks @LX1993 and @TIGGER for the replies. As far as the dashboard goes, it's off to the salvage yard for starters (unless karthief has one hidden in his pile-o-parts LOL ). I may try to play with the trim pieces and see if I can clean them up but if not, I'll get new ones. Paint./Body work is...

    I spent a good part of the afternoon in the garage but damn this FL heat can wipe you out. I did get the hatch support struts installed so no more custom broomstick support now. I also started disassembling the interior. My plan is to take everything out and either repair, repaint or replace the...

    Haha, Yeah it's a limited edition. I think there's a certificate of authenticity somewhere in the glove box. :D But..... It was "IN" the car when I paid for it sooo, possession is 9/10 of the law. He did hook me me up with a couple of ratchet straps/pieces of wood to help hold the engine in...

    Thanks everyone for the suggestions on the upholstery although I've never heard of using Windex on it, what the hell it can't hurt to try. I plan on pulling everything out this weekend and will give them a good scrubbing. I figure I can do that and move the engine off the hoist onto the engine...

    I tried the floor jack and block of wood but the lower support is bent upwards and towards the front of the car. It was worth a shot so thanks to you and Stanglx for the suggestion. I'll start looking around for a support locally. There used to be some pretty decent salvage yards over by Orlando...

    Interesting thought. I'm going to be pulling them out this weekend so that I can pull up the carpet and take a look at what's underneath. It might worth a shot trying to clean these one way or another why they are out.

    Yeah I'm planning on that. I've been making a list of all the stuff I need to replace and will definitely shop around before I order anything. LMR is a great one-stop shop but some of the stuff is a bit pricey.

    Unfortunately I don't know how to weld. I was pricing the support on LMR last night and it's not too bad, I just need to find someone to weld it in for me unless I want to do a crash course on welding. I'll have to think about that. I have always wanted to learn so maybe this will be my...

    I spent most of yesterday afternoon after work in the garage going over my new toy. I know this is going to be a big project and there are quite a few things to tackle that I havent done before. It's going to be a challenge but I'm looking forward to learning some new things. I think when I'm...

    Right now the plans are to restore it. It already has some basic modifications like off-road h-pipe and there is a set of shorty headers hiding out in the hatch. I figure since it has the stock intake (also hiding in the hatch LOL) I'm going to put that back on for starters. There may be some...

    It's time to start my first build thread on the Forums. About two weeks ago I got word of a 1991 GT roller that had been sitting for a couple of years with the 302 that came out it wrapped up. It was a Twilight Blue 1991 GT that was straight and rust free. The interior needed work but it was...

    Fox Rusted out strut towers

    That's a nice looking ride. I hadn't thought about FB marketplace. I've been looking at Craigslist, Autotrader, Autotrader classic, Ebay, etc... Thanks for the tip! I also need to lookup some Mustang clubs here in Central Florida and start hitting the meet-ups.

    Fox Rusted out strut towers

    Good question, So ideally what I'm looking for is this (in order of priority): * A 1989 - 1993 5spd 5.0 coupe or hatchback (Verts are nice but not sure I'd prefer one over the other 2 body styles). * I'd like it to have minimal rust, give these cars are 30+ years old, surface rust is expected...

    Fox Rusted out strut towers

    Thanks all for the replies. I did decide to pass on it. I'll let someone else tackle that job. I can do mechanical, interior, etc... but paint/body isn't something I've learned to do. I have a soft spot for Fox body Mustangs. My first at 16 was an 84 GT, later I had a red 89 coupe, and finally...
