Hey y'all. I'm here to learn and connect.

New to StangNet and looking forward to my Fox journey!

I recently acquired a mostly good, 1990 LX 5.0 convertible. Triple white, with leather interior. Low verified miles, previous two owners.

I've owned a few other 5.0-powered vehicles, but this is my first Mustang.

Mostly stock, with the exception of a Hurst shifter and a custom exhaust. Needs a few fixes, but glad to have this car in my modest collection.

I need a marti report, would love to know if this is all original. With 62k verified miles, I tend to believe it is original.

Look on e bay for a car like your with those miles. If you paid a lots less you should be smiling. Keep it clean, and mostly stock
