Hey I am proud to say that I am now the owner of my first mustang. I recently traded even a 1995 honda civic for a 1991 Mustang lx. All of the work was done by the previous owner. He told me it is a 331 stroker motor with trick flow intake bbk headers off road h pipe and also has an e303 cam, msd distributor 4 inch cervinis cowl hood eibach suspension and 15 inch centerline wheels. I think I got a good trade. What do you guys think

the interior needs some work like a new shifter it has a hammer shifter but it is wedged in there and barely works. And it is having some tranny issues but i was already planning to get a built aod with a manual vb. Was thinking about going with lentech. The console is missing pieces. The seats are black leather but i am not sure what year they are out of maybe you guys can help.

Im wondering the same thing it had 265/50/15 tires on the back but they were bald and rubbed the fender lip and quad shocks. The only tires I could find in stock were 225/60/15 I am hoping to go to a 5 lug swap and 18 inch cobra wheels. The guy wasnt even that young he was 27 and just got out of the army.

I like those Centerlines...Billet Sabres if i recall correctly they had a couple styles that were similar. I would prefer them in 16 but they arent bad in 15"

If that was a bone stock 5.0 that needed TLC you would have made out in the trade...but a 331? the motor alone is worth more than the whole civic...ok maybe not because people are stupid and pay ridiculous amounts of money for hondas but even so...you got the good end of the deal...i think he will regret it as soon as he pulls away from a light and says...

How
Odd
No
Damn
