Operation: Stocker??

[WICKED50LTR]

ok guys and gals heres the deal. i just bought a clean unmolested 1990 GT convertible 5 speed. White with white top and bone stock to the T. Has only 60k on the odometer and is the original owner for $4000. Car is straight as an arrow and has all the orignal sheet metal. Still has the air silencer. The car is clean was garage kept. the only think done was LX lights were installed and Chrome Pony wheels replaced the turbine wheels. Now that this is my first convertible after owning about 12 GT hatchs im kinda split on what to do if anything? Any suggestions or ideas on what to do or were to begin. Im all ears and open to any comments.

Go straight for a supercharger, and leave the rest alone. At least, that's what I'd do.

F2R procharger that is.

full length sub frames, strut tower brace and k member brace to preserve the chassis.

if you cant decide what to do you could send it up to CNY and park it in my garage!

Holy ish man!!! That car is nice.

Keep the Pony's, and no luggage rack FTMFW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would leave it bone stock. For 4K, you could turn around and double your money.

 

[SVT32VDOHC]

WAIT!!!!!!!

I lied....

It needs a cheap 79.95 economy headlight kit with CLEAR CORNERS from 50resto.

Keep stock lights in garage, in boxes.

yea i had a set of new fog light lenses at home already changed and it needs new eyes!!! they are kinda yellow!!

+1 on the subframes and keepin it stock. if you do mod it check the gears, i think that most verts came with 2.73's, but i could be wrong. sweet find!

 

[Makdaddymac]

self oiled blower at like 6-9psi, new clear headlights,subframes and thats it.............
maybe gears....

That thing looks good. What's up with the gap at the front edge of the hood though?

 

[WICKED50LTR]

well i got my "Bush" check in the mail so i had 1500 to spend. So i figured i buy the stang a few new goodies. I got a set of Magnaflow mufflers on ebay for 50 bucks, MM subframe connectors, 4 point K-brace, new headlights. and i fixed the hood the release was to far low and wasnt sitting flush with the bumper. But man i gotta say this 4x4 look has got to go!!! I gotta do a lil research on what springs to get cause like i said this is my 1st vert. and as for gears shes got 3.08

Fix up a couple little things and flip it. You could make a couple grand on that car.

+1 These are the ONLY mods I would do to that beautiful stocker.

As far as other stuff, the headlights/foglights and figure out why it looks like the hood is kissing the Ford emblem.

 

[WICKED50LTR]

I could sell it but i want to feel it out a bit. this is my first convertible and i honestly kinda like it. Ive had 1 to many hatchs and dont get me wrong i love em but i needed something different.

 

[BDASPNY]

thats a damn beautiful vert. you def stole it for 4k. like the other guys said basicly brace it , clean up the headlights. then cruise the hell outta it.
