Hey guys,
I have been on here occassionally, reading and what not. Been wanting to buy a mustang for years but the marriage, baby, house, you know.........
But first off...is this is in the wrong forum, please feel free to move. I think it is in the correct area.
Anyways, I found one that I am going to look at and wanted to know advice on it.....like is what has been done good?
Also, just wondering what to look out for. And then I have to figure what to offer! I really want to get a mustang into the 12's and have it as a strip car with the occassional one day a week driver. I found this one local and the guy seems to want to negotiate. I plan on going to look at it this week and asked about a test drive and he is said it is neither registered nor insured so he is not keen about it. But I think we can agree on a few blocks, hopefully, cause I won't buy without a test drive.
It is a 1988 mustang GT.
The engine has been bored over to be a 308 with new pistons that has not been driven yet. It is a 5 speed with new clutch, flywheel, pressure plate, throw out bearing.
It has trickflow heads, ARP head studs, Scorpion Roller Rockers, 24lb injectors, and GT 40 upper and lower.
Also has new BBK equal length shorty headers, catless X-pipe, subframe connectors, new water pump, power steering pump, alternator, power steering brackets, walboro 255 fuel pump, 31 spline strange axles, eaton posi, and 4:11s.
