Bought my first Mustang!
 
Hey guys! I finally bought a Mustang. I had plans for a 2003-2004 Mach 1 or a Cobra but since I have additions to do on my house this summer, I decided to wait at least one more year but still wanted to have fun in the meantime so I found myself a nice 1989 Mustang GT convertible( the Fox was actually the model that made me fall in love with the Mustangs as a teenager so I am very happy that I found one in such great shape), black in color with white top and white seats/interior. She has an automatic tranny but a week after I bought her, I bought a T-5 tranny and full conversion kit for a great price so she will be swapped as soon as she hit the road.

It is a great feeling to buy a car you have been waiting for 17 years and that 5.0 with a strait pipe after the cats sounds like music to my ears!!

I'll post pics as soon as I'll be home since I am currently at work. Hope to meet some of you guys in Ottawa this summer!!

Sorry for the long post but I had to share!!

And NO, I don't drive her in the snow, I simply didn't planned on buying her during winter so I don't have a nice warm place to store her yet..:)

Hey if you dont mind sharing how many KM and what did you pay for her. Nice car. I am looking for a nice clean vert and the market is way down, just wondering what they are actually going for. PM me if you dont want it on the board.

thanks
Mike

That does look like it is in great shape.
Looks very stock and clean.

Go fast parts are pretty cheap for a fox too compared to the sn95 so if you are planning on modding it you have plenty of options.

Will be nice with the top down in summer for sure.......

I plan on doing my auto to manual swap first then I'll take care of my top( clean and possibly replace), followed by interior( seats...) and when she'll be all pretty, I might mess with performance...I would love to see the magic number 300 whp one day...:biggrin:

This summer will probably be the best I've had in a long time!!:wiggle:

Yeah...it's incredible but also really tough to have the car in the driveway and not being able to drive it...( It's been there for a month now...):rolleyes:
