It is kinda old and most people think its ugly

0 To 60 In 1990 — It goes fast and it was cheap....It makes a good platform for a drag car and thats what i intend to do with it....it does start to suck down some serious money when you start modding though. go get one

Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

1990 Mustang Gt 347 Stroker — My 11 second flat Mustang. 347 Stroker fully built to the maximum & Giggle gas for those times when you just need to outrun the piggly wiggly's ! Fully SN95 four wheel disc brake conversion with proportioning vlave. 17" Black Bullit wheels, 4 corner adjustable coil over suspension with tubular K member. Meticously rebuilt with the highest standards. Next winter she'll get her body done and some more interior work too!

V8 in light car

Cons

Nothing

Very Quick — Quick car. Who wouldn't want a small light car with a V8 in it. It's a mean looking car that moves with a quick step down on the pedal. Black on black on black looks amazing. Sounds gorgeous too. Bottle fed baby.

1991 Project Lx Hatchback — One of my favorite cars I have ever owned. Lots of fun to modify. 200,000 + miles. Bolt on heaven the car was lost to a house fire with my 1966 Ford Mustang Fastback 289 Hi-po 4 spd. Replaced it with a 91 hatchback that was once a 4 cylinder but converted to a 331 stroker, 5 spd TKO, 8.8, and Aerospace Engineering 4 wheel disc brakes. Griggs 4 link and Coil over + tubular a-arms. With Sparco blue/black bucket seats. It is a work in progress and will post pictures

Mustang 5.0, The Best Never Rest! — I have owned 3 other Fox body Mustangs prior to the one I currently own, I have always been a Ford fanatic, and have always been in love with Mustang 5.0's. They are the fastest cars you can buy for the money!! My current Stang is a mint condition Lx Hatch, I bought it 5 months ago. It has great performance/handling, it's rock solid, it's a very hot looking car inside/outside, the insurance rates are decent, the gas mileage is great for a performance V-8, it's a blast to drive.... Faaaassssstttt... I recommend Mustang 5.0's to anyone who is a American Muscle car lover...

Cheap perfomace, very reliable, realy fun to own

Cons

Bad paint, could use better braking.

55

It Cant Get Any Better. — I love my Car! The Car has seen mid-low 13 seconds in the quarter, braking could be better along with an addision of some new paint. Its fairly cheap to own as far as cost of replacement parts, and the actuall purchase price of this era of mustangs are really cheap. Gas milage ussally sees between 15-22 depending on how I drive it. Over all the car is a very fun car to own and drive!

1990 Ford Mustang Gt — This Mustang has Been bored out 30 over, heads ported, bumpstick, intake, shorty headers, crossover pipe, flowmaster mufflers and eibach sportline handling kit. It will put you in your seat and corners very well. The only down side its way to loud to sneak up on anybody!! Invested around 7K in it. Cheap thrills!!
