Put my original post over in tech and the guys told me to drop in here. Just purchased my first Mustang, I have to say couldn't be happier. 1995 Convertible with 48,000 miles!!! Don't know how many mods I'm going to do just bought it for a summer toy. But who knows, I already have the itch to start buying stuff. I attached a link to a picture of it.

Nice! Sweet ride!!!! Welcome to :SNSign: !!!!


To answer the question you were just about to ask...

1) Tune-up/fluids. Use synthetics.
2) 3.73 or 4.10 rear end gears.
3) Aftermarket cat-back exhaust. Heightens enjoyment.
4) Wash. Wax. Etcetera.
5) Apply miles, vigorously!

Is it black or DFG?
Post some more pics if you have them, with 48k on the clock the interior and engine bay are probably spotless! Nice find
I wish my interior was black too

The car is Triple Black, and if I told you guys how much I bought it for there better be a smiley that pukes cause you guys will get sick. I am planning on a Flowmaster Catback and haven't decided on the gear thing yet I've taken a look around and don't want to do a ECU upgrade or lose any reliability so not sure I'm going to do it. Lowering spings will be in the future soon as I get the money for it. Already order the BlueOval smoked front with full Silverstar kit up front.

well sounds like you have choosen a good headlight and bulb combo!! its what i want to get lol and the cat back is a good one i got it in my livingroom i got a 2.5" american thunder with stainless tips i recomend getting the stainless tips it makes the back look better then just the plain steel.... and it looks like the previous owner really liked the 96-98 stangs by the wheels and taillights

I did the wheels myself he had the ugly double tri-bar factories on there. I picked the wheels up on Ebay for $250.00 for all 4 of them. What a deal. I'll put some more pics up when its nice, Cleveland's weather sucks right now!!!

Welcome and along with what reddy351 said our harmonic balancers are notorius for going bad. Budget yourself for a aftermarket replacement, Professional Products makes a nice non sfi replacement. They are around 85-90 dollars and work great if you don't plan on heavy mods.

Don't fear the gear... Chant this until you beleive it...

I am one of the ones that put gears in and the miles on. I did 19k miles on my 3.73's last year... Looking back I should have gone 3.90's or 4.10's...

Lower it too.. that is worth the $150 for some FMS springs...

Looks great though... wish my car was that clean...
