I have been putting together a vert for her to drive and finally started it tonight. I bought the car in primer and Plated put some paint on it for me. The car is a GT40P explorer motor AOD with a shift kit, shorty headers, off road H pipe, 4.10 gear on 17 inch bullets. This should be a fun car for her to drive this summer and I can take her escape to save on some gas. I also fixed my 86 today so I have 2 running mustangs :bigthumb.

I will get some more pics this week with the interior in it and back on the ground.


Thanks again to Todds86 and 93hulk for the help on this car

Did you do the 5 lug conversion if so did you have to do anything special for the 17"s to fit.?

I have the same car (color and all) but an 87 and want those wheels!

Ok I said something for her to drive this summer but I was running a little behind on it :lol: The car is 99% ready I have to fix a broken wire on the alternator, put the passenger side door handle on, bleed the brakes, and put the rear window back on track and its on the road. I'm hoping to have all of this done by the weekend out cruising it
