Car is looking awesome, the kit looks a lot better than I thought.

Lol thanks! I was worried the kit would be too much with my smaller wheels.. but I like it.

Car is looking a lot better, nice work. 👍

Thank you!

Yes the body kit is a huge improvement. Looks a lot better now. That's also a very nice looking Mustang.

Thank you very much! Now that the 240 is almost done I can and should start paying more attention to the Mustang haha.

More update junk. I am proooooobably selling the Mustang soon. I drove an SVX yesterday...

.... and I LOVED it! It was incredible! It's at a dealer near me. It sounds like the bee's nonexistent knees and it pulls hard. It corners like my 240 did before I welded the diff... It seemed really torquey, too. I don't care if it's an auto, I love it. I miiiiight buy it when the Mustang sells. It was a fun car.

I don't know if any of you remember THIS car, but...

... That's the Camry. It's not really that significant any more So I put it up on Craigslist to see what I could get for it.

THIS guy...

... Wants to trade. So I'm looking at that tomorrow. I'm REALLY REALLY hoping I get it. I wanted one of these earlier this year but it sold really fast, and that's how I bought the Saab. But if I could have both.... ooooh boy I'd be a happy boy

I have too many cars.

Mustang needs new wheels.

Like these

Edit : But if you do sell it, you should give it to me.

 

[Sage Ages]

No. These.

Well you're not missing out on much. Lol

9 million Toyotas. A Mustang, and a really ghetto 240SX.

Oh pfft. The Toyota is the ghetto one. LOOK AT THAT HOODRAT CAMRY FRONT END

 

[SVX]

AN SVX?

You now have my attention.

My dad has had a couple of these, if you have any questions fire away. 👍

 

[Thatman]

1G DSM with rust in all the right places. Do it though.

 

[Slash]

Mustang sounds pretty good. You should look into lightly modding the suspension and whatnot for better handling.

The transmission heat issues are the biggest concern, I'd wager. Well that and replacing any cracked windows

And good luck if you get a DSM, those are timebombs.

Already has some sort of fancy aftermarket shocks and springs!

I am aware that DSMs can be bad... But if I can handle a Fiat...

 

[Slash]

Awesome. You should give it a good rip hehe.

 

[Anna+Reece]

Well, guys... WHAT DID I BUY NOW?

This car is great. There is seriously not a thing wrong with this car. It's just so nice. Runs and drives perfectly and it's pretty fun too. I dig it. The guy took the Camry even up (this guy must be mentally insane) for the Eclipse. His gal-pal is pregnant so that explained why he took my 4 door so quickly.

What's the point of this car? I don't know. But I like it and I'm happy.

Looking at ANOTHER car tomorrow to trade the Brostang for. 5 speed 1997 Jeep Cherokee Sport Coupe. Then I would trade THAT one for a different automatic Jeep for my brother.

I haven't driven the 240 in a week

 

[Slash]

Why the hell would you want to trade a Mustang for a Jeep?

 

[Anna+Reece]

JEEPS ARE COOL! I kinda... traded my brother's car for the Eclipse... so I told him I'd find a car for him.

 

[McLaren]

I love DSMs. You can make such crazy stupid power out of them for next to nothing and then it just goes boom with the crank walk. Best yet, they're easy to rebuild back to those levels til' the cycle repeats itself.

I was WAITING for this to happen on the drive home. Lolol

Especially a 1997 Jeep Cherokee Sport Coupe. Those things are known for an insane amount of problems.

If you are going to get a jeep I would recommend a CJ7. The Cherokees are a nightmare in terms of reliability. If you do buy the jeep, hopefully you have good luck with it.

 

[Slash]

I agree on the CJ7. Those things are animals.

 

[Anna+Reece]

The mustang is... Gone. For a Jeep that I gave to my brother.
You can see it in this picture

The eclipse is going bye bye soon. I'm looking at a car to trade on Saturday. I can't tell you what it is. The Jeep is nice.

I replaced my radiator. No pictures because... well that's not very exciting to look at anyway. And I replaced it with a brand new OE replacement so that's not even too exciting. But my car doesn't barf coolant any more.

I went drifting.

YAAAAAH

Then I went to the pressure washer...

... after dealing with wiring issues (my fault)

I drove this car 5 hours to Shawano, Wisconsin. I beat the piss out of it the whole weekend. I blew a bunch of fuses. I popped one of my plug wires off the distributor. I crashed straight into a haybale when I forgot to clutch kick into a transition and it damaged my front bumper reeeaaaal badly in spots you can't really see. My front bumper fits horribly now. I drove 5 hours home. No radio, no A/C (75 degrees there and back woo), no cruise control, stiff coilovers, loud exhaust, etc etc etc. This car didn't let me down once. <3 <3 <3 <3 IN LOVE <3 <3 <3 <3
I learned a lot at that event. DD48 at USAIR. I linked the whole intermediate course, it was pretty sweet. I saw friends. I went way too wide around a corner and almost tore my rear bumper off because I smacked another haybale and blew it up. It was pretty sweet. BUT, this proves that you can drift your car AND still keep it in decent condition and STILL make it look somewhat nice. "Drift missile kids" are idiots. I rubbed reeeaaal bad on my wheel wells. That's alright. My rear tires are smoother than my flow. (sarcasm) That's alright. LITERALLY NO TREAD BACK THERE AND SHE STILL STICKS LIKE GLUE
I'm actually happy the rear tires are sucky now because they were too wide anyway.

Did you see my cool new clear marker lights? Cool.


I bought some canards from Boss! Aero on Memorial Day for like 70% off. I..... I dunno about them on this car.

They are really nice. But they just don't look right on this car. So idk. MAYBE I'll keep them on. We'll see. I thought they would look D1-ey but they are too short. I tried to do this

CLOSE ENOUGH
Some day I will have cool canards. Ugh and the lame thing is he bought these from the same place I did. SOME DAY I WILL "PROCEED" INTO GREATNESS

I'm very excited for this summer because I get to drift more. I'm finally good at it, too. Yay.

[SVX]

What about that SVX?

 

[JrDarknes]

If your driving without those position lights, I'm surpised you haven't got pulled over.

That action picture look amazing.

Sold. </3

That's what I'm saying... I guess I'm just lucky haha.

 

[CodeRedR51]

You remind me of an old friend. Had a Honda Prelude, traded it for a Del Sol. Traded the Del Sol for a Jeep. Traded the Jeep for a turbo Civic. Traded the Civic for a Yamaha sport bike. Traded the bike for 2 more Civics.....then sold the Civics and moved out of state.

 

[Sage Ages]

The canards don't look that good.
Find some damn Lonchamps.

That's gonna be me!! I'm already on the road to another 240... but we will get more into that LATER.

I... I agree I'm not a huge fan.

I MIGHT get more longchamps. I found a set of my dream wheels.... SOOOOOOO
