Just found the first picture I ever took of my 5.0

I have a bunch of 35mm black an white pictures of my car when i first bought it, stock down the the cheese graters (didnt have a airsilencer) I wanna scan them an get them up on the net. I will post up when i do.
 
My car the day I bought it. Bone stock but super crappy.

This is why sometimes it really pisses me when ryan bitches about his car. Sometimes he acts like has has it so bad and that he's going to give up. I didn't give up or bitch, and look where my car is now.

Thanks for the complements guys.

Yea really your car has come very far, I never knew it was in that rough of shape. I need to shut my mouth about even doing mods now, seeing how some people have risen from the ashes. :hail2:
 
I don't have a pic of when I first bought mine, I already took off the mudflaps, pinstripe, and tinted the windows by the time I got to take pics. It's nearly stock '88 with 37k original when I bought it in August.

Mustang5, can you please post a current picture, for comparison?


Major mods were new paint, Saleen wing, 5-lug conversion, Black Interior conversion as well as engine mods.

I don't have updated photos as the car is sitting in storage along with all the new goodies i have been ordering for it. The pile is almost as big as the car. :D

Not a dramatic difference, but then again i started out with a mint car to begin with. Some days i wish it was stock again, but i like where i'm taking it.

The ONLY stock part from my car that i ever saved....was the air silencer!!!!


EDIT: Just found this pic taken around 2000 after a paint job and Saleen wing. Still had stock 10-holes and stock ride height :( Pretty clean car though. I would have not done the Saleen wing if i could go back. Next repaint i might put a stock LX wing back on....depending on if i do a Saleen GFX kit or not

Mine is a totally new car except the paint from when I bought it. Everything is new!

Heres just a shot of the motor when I bought it and the new one now (dont mind the bypassed heatcore)
