    Just got the stang today!!

    I know. I did some research and these seemed to be the best mods. My goal is to keep it simple. Eventually I will put a blower on it, but that will take some time to get the cash.

    Eibach springs w/ stock shocks and struts?

    My dad has always kept it in the garage as a 3rd car from when it was new in 96. I don't think the car has ever been out in the rain. But anyway, he ordered a new 2010 GT convertible a couple of weeks ago and asked if I wanted this one. :nice: Thanks for the help.

    I ordered the eibach pro kit for my 96 GT convertible. I was going to install them with the stock struts and shocks, but with new bushings. Would this be alright, or should I wait and buy new struts and shocks before putting the springs on, which could be a little while until I get up the...

    1996 GT convertible seat track extender question

    I am getting my dad's 96 GT convertible in April. I am over 6'5" tall and although I have driven the car a lot over the years, I have seen seat track extenders available for mustangs up to the 94' model. Does anyone know if they make extenders for a 96', and if so, where can I get them?
