My 98 GT Convertible

I posted about a month ago about possibly buying a 98 GT vert. Well I bought it and I finally got around to taking some pictures of it. They are terrible pictures, but hopefully I will get some better ones soon. This is my 11th mustang, first 4.6 GT. I've had a bunch of 5.0 foxbodies, a 96 cobra, and a 97 cobra and so far I can say I honestly like this car the best. It has the following mods are in my sig.

Basically I plan on keeping the car very streetable. I don't plan on ever really racing it. Right now it's my daily driver, but I want to get some type of cheap daily driver in the near future. As far as future mods go, it definitely NEEDS to be lowered. I plan on doing the suspension and gears and then maybe a few other aesthetic mods like a chin spoiler and hood.

The last pic is of my 90 GT vert that I've owned for 9 years. I don't really want to sell it but I think I'm going to have to after the winter. I really don't have the room for it now and I can use the money from selling to put towards saving for a house.

I just added the S281 spoiler yesterday. It's hard to tell in the pics, but it's actually made out of carbon fiber. It was cheaper than unpainted ones so I figured if I didn't like the carbon fiber look, I could always paint it. I think I'll leave it as is.

.... you say you like this car better than the 96 and 97 Cobras you've owned? Why?

Well for starters i love convertibles and the cobras were hard tops. The first one I had was the 97. It was pacific green (I love that color on a Cobra). It was stock except for exhaust. The 96 was black and had 373s, exhaust, and was lowered. I just felt like for the type of driving I do, the GT has more low end grunt. The cobras screamed and pulled much better when at WOT obviously but I rarely drive my cars like that. Honestly the major reason why is also probably because the GT is very clean and the cobras I had were nice, but each had their own minor issues. Not to mention I would feel kind of guilty about modifying a cobra

Well I guess my luck with cars continues over to this one. Something from the valve train broke last night. It's making a really loud tapping sound. Sounds like its coming from the top of the passenger side cylinder head...
