Im going to be parting my car out soon. I've been thinkin about it for a while now and its the best thing for me to do right now. Im buying a 1990 Taurus SHO this week and will be not driving my baby anymore. Theres way to much work needed to be done to her for me to be happy with it. I dont have the time or money to put into to it right now. Im trying to finish up school and this car is getting in my way. It has severe chassis rust that I could fix but dont have the time to do it. Mostly becuase it has 250000 New Jersey miles on the body. I have rust in the shock tower pretty bad, and a hole in the drivers side floor pan. My rear has slowly started making alot of noise and my clutch is slipping in fourth and fifth if I punch it. As soon as the SHO is legal my stang days will be over for a while. I plan on putting every penny I make off the mustang in the bank towards savings for a really really clean car with no problems that I can start over with next summer. (Possibly a 93 Cobra). I've daily driven my car for 4 1/2 years and I've been through so much with it. Im gonna miss her dearly. I've done everything on this car myself. Been through two cat backs, two clutches, 4 T-5's, two rears, two different sets of headers, rebuilt the motor by myself, put heads and intake on it. Every part on that car was put on by me and I think thats why Im so attatched to the car.
Bought it as a bone stock black gt. Put exhaust on it and bought wheels and a Saleen wing at the end of the summer and drove it like that for 6 months. Cracked her up November of my Senior year and drove it with no bumper, red fenders and a red hood for four months painted it and in which it turned into this
Went to college with this being the best she ever looked while I had her.
It stayed like that for a year and two months and then my wheel fell off superbowl sunday 06 goin up to school and I also got a new front bumper to replace the cracked one I had on there and my friend backed into it looking like this
I then decided to replace the rusty doors with some nice clean ones and that left it looking like this
I got some nice parts together and then got to priming it last year to make it presentable for a while in hopes that it would get painted soon.
Here's what the interior looks like today.
Here's what I envisioned my car eventually lookin like but I guess thats not gonna happen now.
Anyone else have to deal with gettin rid of a car you really dont want to?
