no I wish, that car was straight killed, the whole car was bent over to the drivers side about a foot and a half, the drivers door frame was broke and one of the hinges broke clean off, the top broke on the drivers side, we had to jump on the top halfway letting it down because it was hitting the outside of the car like a fat guy with a tight belt lol, and both of the rear 1/4's were wrinkled, the drivers shock tower was pushed into the firewall etc.. it was killed no amount of money could have fixed it unless I bought a new car lol, but im fixing rpm182000's reef blue/titanium 93 vert I got off of him, I ended up not buying the core support, but I will soon, I found a brand new front bumper cover for $120 so im gonna jump on that while I can..

well..... dont expect to see any progress on my car for a long time. i started it up today to set the timing and something happened , but havent figured it out yet and it started spraying fuel everywhere and caught fire.

i cut the car off as fast as possible then ran to my water hose which is a mile long so it had to push out all the air first, and by the time i got back it had burnt my entire wiring harness down, all of my vacuum lines, melted the tops of my injectors and destroyed pretty much everything under my engine bay that was plastic or rubber. it even melted my brake softlines in half.

slow95gt has a pic on his phone i will post it up later.

I have the soft break lines I can send you bro..

I saw one mustang spray fuel and catch fire. The oring on the injector blew out and he was setting the timing. He had the #1 plug wire off the cap and the clip was on it. It arced and the spark ignited the fumes. We got it out in quick order by smothering it.

from what I could gather the 91 harness is unique to itself and the 92-93 are interchangeable. I could be wrong on that if we are just talking the engine harness for the injectors and mass air.

i thought the fuel rail might have lifted but upon further inspection it looks like that plastic divider line on the front of the fuel rail has a crack in it. so whatever. **** happens. this is just a minor (2 month) setback. i will still be back before the end of the summer.
