Welcome! The car looks clean -it should be an excellent starting point. What are your performance goals and plans for the car?

Well its already fast enough for now. its a built 5.0, 3.55 posi, bassani shortys, x-pipe to Mac mufflers. I think if i ever have enough money i'd like to paint it, the primer was shot with a high-pressure gun so you can see the stripes on the hood. But its more my style, not too flashy just fast. I'll tint the windows, and im lookin at puttin a vortech on it but im not sure yet. Im still learning how to drive the car lol the clutch is really stiff

The stripes don't indicate a high pressure gun. In fact, they are more indicative of a tinkle can. The stiff clutch could be an old pressure plate in need of changing, or worn clutch cable. Given the amount of power you have, the clutch should not be hard to push down.

The last two Car Club races (bracket racing for team points) are this Saturday and next Saturday at Bremerton Raceway. Gates open at 8 AM and eliminations usually begin around 12:00 ish. You would want to join the Ford Drag Team (five dollars for the entire year). There are many foxbody cars on that team.
