Hey guys! I'm a new member with some basic questions regarding my 97 v6 Mustang. The car has 117k on the 3.8l, 5-speed. This car is my daily driver and is totally stock except for some 03' Cobra wheels/245-45r17 Fairyears. The car has been nothing but reliable, only stupid stuff like original radiator going out and the timing cover leaking. Routine maintence is definetly my friend. Thanks for the welcomes!
Welcome to the site, Mike! Let's see some pictures of the pony. Also, let me know if I can be of service.
Dontcha know what a stock '97 v6 with Cobra wheels looks like by now?? Welcome Mike, totally agree with the reliability of the v6!
Sorry about delay. Here it is in all it's glory! Like I said before, car has 117k on it, still looks pretty good(except for rock chipped/faded hood) and gets me to work everyday. It is completely stock, right down to the 4x4 stance, air intake, exhaust and plug wires. I Tried putting MSD wires on it and it missed horribly! Livin' in Las Vegas, you gotta have tinted windows and a good coat of wax at least once a year. The short e-brake cable broke about a year ago, easy fix. I put a clutch in it two years ago, radiator-hoses-tstat 3 months ago and try to keep it clean. I am the second owner and the car has never had anything but Nevada plates on it.I have sick dreams of a 8point cage( I'm a chassis fabricator by trade), subframe connectors, Paxton SC, 4.10 gears in an 8.8, 2" drop, rear CA's, bigger brakes, etc. But the car keeps me out of trouble as-is and is fun to drive. Mileage is good(25/34) and the car is forgettable by the cops. So my little Mustang will probably stay stock for a while. Enjoy!
hey, all right! Another rio red one, like mine. I like the chrome wheels.. I want to get some for mine, with red bullit brake calipers.
