Hi, new here but not to mustangs and other cars

[CassieL]

Hi, I'm Cassie and I live in Tyler Tx. I have a 1989 gt that I'm fixing up to make a good daily driver.
I have 20 years experience working on cars. My dad and brother ran a shop. Dad was a Ford master tech and my brother was a GM master tech.
I also worked in their shop and have some certifications.

It'll be a pleasure to join in here.

Didn't read the rule book (or page in this instance) otherwise you would know we are picture oriented, actually some of us don't read too well so we need visuals so let's see 'em, you don't want a visit by 'Da Janitor'.

I can't read so, I have no idea what this thread is about.

Nice that you know what your doing for a daily driver. Its gonna be a while to get the 89 running perfect.

Welcome to StangNet.
Post some pics of that 89’. We would love that!

 

[CassieL]

Sorry about that. I did read the rules but my pictures didn't upload so I'm trying again.

She's a rescue, don't know what happened to let her get like this but some people lose enthusiasm. I bought her for 500 with a clean title. Motor turns but full of crap since the intake was off and the hood was up for i don't know how long. Right now I'm stripping the interior for cleaning. No rust and all the doors shut with good gaps, plus the hatch supports are still good. When i first looked at the car i was amazed that the hatch stayed up so i said I'll take it. I'm attaching a picture of what it would have looked like new. Someone painted it purple.

Don't take the 'ribbing' seriously.

We really are mostly a gathering of Neanderthals here. If you've worked in a shop then you understand.

Welcome glad your fox will be a daily as mine has been since I got her on7/7/07. Most think I'm nuts driving a 31 year old car everyday but she's my girl and what I love to drive/work on.

For the past several years my daily driver has been an 88 full size bronco and an 86 grand marquis. i like old cars better.

I had a Bronco ll(said in my best Opie Taylor voice).........lame I know

 

[CassieL]

By the way, I'm well versed in computer and driveability diagnostics. I have a snap on modis scanner which also has a four channel scope.
My bronco had a mustang 5.0 with GT40 top end. Ran a 95 mustang ECU and a 4r70w.

 

[CassieL]

The 94 mustang was the first to have live data available instead of just codes
So fords had that in 92.
