I recently bought my sisters old Mustang that has been sitting around for years. She is a Mustang fanatic and bought the car when it was 3 years old. When her daughter was born the car became a second vehicle and sat around until she got a 2013 convertible. That's when I told her if she ever wants to sell the 5.0 I would like to get it for my boy Dan. It doesn't run as it is now but I am hoping to ask some questions here and get some feedback. Got to get this thing going cause I told my sis that she could take her nephew to Mustang shows with her. Thanks
-Tried to upload a pic but I couldn't figure it out.

Ha. Guess I should check my spelling before I post. I always did spend more time working on cars than doing my homework.

Very nice!

Welcome to stangnet.

It's good to have another fox fanatic to be with us.

I'm thinking you won't have to do a lot to get it running. When's the last time it was started and how did it run at that time?

I'm going to move your thread to our fox general talk subforum to get you hooked up with all the guys.

Glad you joined.
