    Ok Pictures of the 90 GT I just bought...

    Wow, lots of math- though none of that ever made my car go anywhere. You don't need any adder to make your 5.0 run high 12's, just choose your h/c/i correctly and do some chassis work. It wants to breathe so let it.:nice:

    245/45/17's rubbing hard

    Maybe its an age thing, but why does everyone think they need these huge ass rims and tires on cars not ever designed for them? Are Hot Wheels that cool?:shrug: Just wondering, I don't understand, my 86 went 11.40 on 15x7 Ten Holers with 9 inch M/H's and looked plenty cool.

    Nice car!:nice: You only overpaid if you find a nicer one for less money- your car looks good from here, if it doesn't give you any problems, you'll surely get your money out of it. GT's had GT taillights. If you wanted LX tails you shoulda got an LX. Those cheese graders while maybe not the...

    Price check on an original-owner 1987 LX 5.0

    Very sweet find!:nice: 3K and unmolested by the usual teenage butchers is hard to come by anymore! If you're not in love with it, give it a detailing and Craigs List it, you can make $ on that! If you are in love with it, you're right!

    My 89 Hatch resto build thread

    Your "friend" is why Fox guys have had to fight 25+ years of bad reputation. Good luck, he left you about 5 times the work you needed to do before he destroyed what was left. Keep us posted!

    update on the Cobra

    Where'd it go? Ifn thats the one you want, go and get it an option? I sold my first LX in 90 to get married of all the dumbass reasons. I shoulda kept it and not the now exwife. I spent 15 years after trying to put that 1 mistake right so when I found my current one, its so close to my first...

    Safe way to remove hard water stains from windows?

    The Works shower cleaner eats the lime off the faucets and shower heads at the house really well, and it cleans it our drinking glasses too, like brand new. Not the white one, the purple one. It should do a job on your windows, just don't get it on anything else!:nice:

    New guy with a few questions

    Nice car, welcome brother! You will need a couple parts catalogs- Year One, 5.0 Resto (also known as Latemodel Restoration Supply), Texas Mustang Parts to name a few. They haver the tools and the talent.

    The 5.0 Mustang is Back!

    Reading more of the new info on the new motor with lots of numbers crunched together is like some serious bench racing. I will reserve my opinion til I see it go. Nice to hear about the whole 'twice the power of my old 5.0' thing-again, but we heard all these same stories when the 4.6 came out...
