96Stang

Well, to start this all off...just letting everyone know that im not just stuck on mustangs or american cars haha...but I started off with my first car being a POS 91 Dodge Shadow...I payed for the car and it lasted about a year till the tranny went and it wasn't worth fixing. Looked around for a while and got a good deal on a 96 Mustang with the v6 in it. Wasn't much for power but a ton more than my Shadow of course and this one was 5spd. Fell in love with manual on this car and can't imagine driving auto ever again. For some reason I decided to sell this car and purchase an 82 Mustang GT. This car was too much for me to handle. I'm still learning alot about cars and the knowledge and money wasn't there for me to fix this car to what I wanted.

And it was yellow too haha.
After I finally realized I couldn't drive that car daily, I decided to start looking for something newer and more reliable but still with some decent power. I started looking into WRX's and some other things but everything was a tiny bit out of my price range. Finally found a 98 Mustang GT that reminded me of my first Mustang because it happend to be the same color and styling. Only huge difference was the condition of the car and the power. I found it at a dealership and got a decent deal on it. Brought it home and have kept it just as I got it since then. I was pretty broke after I purchased the car being that I am still paying it off, but after I started making some money I decided I needed a short shifter. Got a steeda tri-ax and it feels amazing in the car. Became broke again after that because of other financial things, but just got underdrive pulleys waiting to put on the car and I am about to buy a mid-pipe for the exhaust and maybe intake. Here are some pics from a day me and pete (teh dirt) went out and took some shots...hope you guys like...even though its stock right now, more pics to come with more mods:
