TW/FT: 88 Mustang LX 5.0
**Pic Below**
I have yet to make a final decision on whether or not I want to get away from my Mustang yet, but I would like to see what some of you might have to offer as far as a trade. The biggest reason I'm considering getting rid of my car is largely due to the amount of driving I do and the money I end up spending on gas (93 octane ain't getting any cheaper).
The car is stock for the most part. I'd rate the interior 9/10, and the exterior 6/10. The paint isn't bad, but the hood could use a repaint and the roof has some peeling. The car runs very very well, it has yet to fail me up this point as my daily driver. A/C works great, power windows/mirrors/locks. Oil changes and maintence done regularly, the only thing I haven't done on a regular basis lately is wash it. =)
Mods so far are:
-FMS Shorties
-King Cobra/FRPP Clutch
-FRPP Adjustable Clutch Quadrant
-Mac O/R H-Pipe (not yet installed)
-Intake (K&N)
-Flowmaster Mufflers
Interior changes
-Panasonic Touch Screen CD Player
-Cloth SN95 Seats (out of a 95 Mustang GTS)
-Sunpro Tach
Mileage 108,xxx
I took the car down to BMP for the last TR track event and ran a 14.6 without any of the above mods except the muffs, along with a bad clutch. I'm sure with a good driver, the car can put down a better time now.
Suspension & brakes are stock, but the car is sitting on Weld Draglites w/ 95% rubber in the front and about 80% in the rears. Rear tires are BF Goodrich Radials. The Welds are in good shape, just need to be cleaned up and polished.
Bad things:
-Brakes need to be replaced. I have new rotors, pads, bearings for the fronts, I just have to keep a weekend open one of these days and get it done.
-Fuel Pump sounds like it needs to be replaced (whines)
-Tires need to be rebalanced
-Passenger Side Door has no door handle (original plastic one broke), simple fix via a door handle out of a junk yard.
As far as trades are concerned, I'm open to anything that can save me some dough on gas as well as being something I can tinker around with. Show me what you got!
I would prefer to go wih a straight up trade at this point in time since this car is my only mode of transportation and I don't have time to go hunting around for a new car during the day.
If I see something interesting, I'll consider setting up an appointment to come check out the car and can have a carfax report presented to the potential buyer/trader.
I only have one pic of my car, and its at home on my computer. I'll add it on here when I get home tonight. I won't be able to take more pics until this weekend when I get my camera back.
Thanks for reading
