Debuting my new Mustang!

Loco5.0 · Mar 2, 2008

Some of you may remember my immaculate '93 GT. I still regret selling that car, but there's nothing I can do about it now!

I picked up an '89 LX last month and have been taking care of a few odds & ends & changing some things to my liking. Still a million things I want to do, but one thing at a time.

306 w/ C4 trans & a wet shot.
Also has H/C/I, full exhaust, 3.73s, aluminum rad w/electric fans, cage, drag springs & shocks, etc etc. It went high 10s on spray and mid 12s on motor untuned. I'm planning on taking her to the track soon to get some times w/me behind the wheel.

Here are pics of how she was when I got her:

No clue. Some building next to a library in VA. I stopped on my way home to take pics.

Everyone has Draglites on their Mustang. I didn't feel like being a part of the masses

Sweet car and I love the star wheels, but how much do they weigh compared to the welds. I almost ordered a set, but heard they were a good bit heavier than the weld wheels. I have a 92 LX hatch that I want to put them on. Did you get your from Summit Racing

Not to hijack your thread but can anyone tell me the weight difference. If were talking 5lbs more per wheel well then Im buying some.

where did you get ahold of 4 lug pro stars?

They are heavier, but by how much I do not know. Yes, bought them direct from Summit.
