Hello all! After lurking for some time I'm in a position to contribute. Unfortunately, this is also driven by my need for help.
Background:
This is my brother's car. He bought it in 2007. This is his third foxbody that I remember. He was very knowledgeable on what to do and not to do. Ultimately, he wanted a nice cruiser with decent power and manners. Unfortunately, he passed away unexpectedly before Christmas. No wife, no kids, just loose ends. After everything was said and done, i felt that the mustang should not be liquidated. I know she meant a lot to him. I would like to finish this project, it would mean a lot to the family.
Current situation:
The car has sat for at least 3 years. I have a pile of parts that he was getting together (more on that later). I was told that there was an issue with the starter, but she just turned over. I've changed out the battery and connections, only. I will be changing the fluids tomorrow and giving it a once over. I do know that he swapped to maf and 3g alternator.
I'm hoping that you guys can take a look at the pictures and let me know if anything looks "off". Do you see any swaps that I may be overlooking? Also, anything I'm forgetting before the startup?
If I can provide any other pics or info to help the discussion, please let me know. Thanks in advance, I suspect I won't be able to pull this off without you.
