Hey you guys I just purchased my first mustang! 1987 5.0 GT! I'm pretty excited because I love the foxes by far and have had plenty of dreams owning one.. Now it's come true. She is rough right now but in good condition considering she is an automatic and hasnt seen too many doughnuts! Original spare +jack cargo cover pretty clean besides the flame paint job from a previous owner! Not bad though I've seen worse in terms of flames IMO! But anyway I'm here seeking the guidance of all you experts I've been reading for a while now browsing this site and have learned little things but I didn't want to subscribe until I became an official mustang owner! Lemme know what you guys think about her and all opinions and suggestions are welcome! I do need help with a timing issue to pass smog but I can get into that next post if anyone wants to listen!

As you joined the site before me, it may not be my place to welcome you, but welcome.
Good luck with the new ride.
I can't help you with the timing, but I'm sure there are people on this site that can.

Weekends are a little slow around here. Most of us are out either enjoying our rides, or wrenching on them!

Welcome to the site, and we love pics!

Hey I got action! Haha thanks just making sure you guys are still alive in here! I'll be in the fox section from now on thanks @madspeed. What do you guys think of the flames? I'm not a flame guy and all my buddies get on it but I must say it has grown on me! Thinking about painting them a different shade of black so they aren't so flashy though.

Thank you. Yeah I wasn't a fan either but whoever did them took their time! Believe me I've seen worse. Right now my main concern is to get it running strong again. Fix suspension and upgrade tires. After that I'll worry about the cosmetics haha

Yeah I'm the same about my hood. I wasn't a fan on the one that came with the car but they more I see it the more I like it. Maybe it'll look better painted. Maybe...

Helps that's it's actually a mustang. So when I get out and look back I get all hyped inside and look past the flames haha. If I want driving it I'd probably have more bad things to say. Lol
