I got a 91 GT with a 100k. It's my DD and will be for a while. The body is in awesome shape with no rust at all. Im just wondering where i should put my money. I don't want to put a few grand into a car that may not last 5 more years. Its practically stock, except for exhaust.

complete fluid change,oil,coolant,tranny and rear differential and brake fluids, complete tune up including replacing all filters.clean iac and maf sensor part 1 and part 5 in the link below will help you dio this.a 100,000 miles is not alot of miles on these cars and they will last a long time if you follow ford factory specs meaning change intervals for the above listed applications....i would also have autozone pull any check engine codes even if light is not illuminated and post results if any codes are retrieved... all the above can be done yourself with the aid of a chilton manual which can be purchased from a local auto parts store.
