Whatsup guys my name is josh and I just bought my first mustang and I'm stoked, it's not my dream 67 Shelby, but it's still beautiful, I got a 2.3L 1987 LX. I bought this car after it sat for 10 years and the guy pours three gallons of gas into it and it fires off time and time again. (Besides the basics: full flush by firestone, full tune up and I changed out the radiator with one from an 89 5.0 because the one it came with looked like the inside of a freezer....... Any other thoughts ?
