I picked this up a couple of days ago for $2500....Figured i would post a log as the last mustang with what all i have done to it...going to pretty much redo all of the interior.

Has a built 93 cobra motor..im not sure what alls done but its alot faster than stock

4.10 gears

pro 5.0 shifter

Aftermarket clutch

Roush 2.5" lowering kit

Came with a amp kits allready hooked up and a cheap cd player

Heres some pics of the car:

faster than stock cause the gears more than motor. 93 cobra only had 235 hp. 89 gt had 225hp both rated at the flywheel. 93 gt had 205 the only year that had 205hp and efi.

 
Ok so...so far i have bought:

New exterior door handles, a new cobra shift knob, and firethorn red pearl is the color im painting it....

I know ... its a built motor though...he said the previous owner built it for drag but wasnt sure what all was done... my last car had a built 306 with 4.10 gears and this foxbody is easily faster

 
looks like a nice start.
i dont think its too bad of a deal... i paid $2500 and had my father pick it up in convington, VA.... when i first seen it, it looked to be in worse shape than i thought and i was kinda mad...then i started finding out about the parts he didnt tell me about haha so im ok with it now... it should look good in a month or two

 
well if its got gt-40 heads on it cobra intake thats good start. but if its a "drag" motor it must have dome pistions cause gt-40 heads are 64cc heads. to have some good comp. trust me im on my 13th foxbody.{410w c-4 4.10 gears coupe} runs 5.60s in the 1/8th and runs on pump gas. i dont call mine a drag motor. a drag motor is all some ones opinion. i call mine a pump gas streetcar{tag insurance all lights}

 
Well over the last few days ups brought me some goodies for the foxbody... Im still waiting on my Black interior carpet, Fatmat deadening, 15" DC sub, and my JVC KD-S100 cd player to come in.... Heres some pics of the toys so far...

Firethorne red pearl paint, new door handles, and a cobra shifter which im not sure i want to use ( do yall think it looks tacky?)
