*There is more that I want to do in the future to correct any shortcomings: G-Force transmission upgrade, better brakes (which will probably mean new wheels), better engine block (new Boss 302 block), etc.
*Right now I am concentrating on perfecting what I have and tuning the suspension a little with different struts, shocks, front springs, and front sway bar to allow the car to do better at a drag strip without compromising handling (of course on a road course those M/T DRs would have to go).

ABOUT ME
I am a Mustang lover from way back and the fever is still burning. My 'Stang and I continue to evolve...
This is 1987 LX 5.0 Ford Mustang. This car has been a labor of for many years and is mainly a car show participant/street cruiser; it is always evolving into something more radical. Right now I guess you could say that it is a "street" Street Renegade car with road race flavor (strange mix huh?). This car has many modifications and I am only listing some here. I'll just say that A LOT of time and $$$$ invested in my baby and I keep pouring more into it! Just one thing though, my father and I did ALL the work on this car ourselves, and we have enough of a machine shop in our garage that there are a lot of one-off custom fabricated parts on this car.
**Look for the car in 5.0 Mustangs and Super Fords magazine (August 2005 issue) and Mustang Enthusiast magazine (June 2005 issue). It won Editors Choice at the NMRA Ford All-Star Nationals (Columbus 2003), and at the NMRA World Finals at Bowling Green (2004) two feature shoots were done on it!!!!**
