88 lx 5.0... the modding begins
My car is a piece lol. Just bought about $1,500 worth of parts on day one. I just ordered:
a new cooling system(water pump, radiator, fan and assesories, and hoses) New one piece smoked headlights and bi-xenon 8k hid kit new door handles wiper blade motor billitt a/c knobs new plugs, wires, and distributer cap used t-5 transmission (aod went out) Next week I'm gonna finish the parts for the t-5 swap(if someone could give me a list of parts i would appriciate it) 5 lug conversion with sve front and rear cobra brake kit new 5 lug wheels (probably sve wheels) That should get me buy for a while. I may look to do a vortech kit after that. don't really know what direction i want to go with this car yet. It's supposed to be my daily driver. Here is how it sits for now... ![]() ![]()

Good to see you’re starting under the hood. Don’t forget to replace the thermostat. Did you replace the stock fan or go electric? I would get the battery and alternator checked out if you haven’t yet. Since it’s your daily driver I would do the suspension before the 5 lug conversion.
Late Model Restoration has everything you will ever need. CJ Pony Parts is good also but they always seem to mess up my orders. I see you getting rid of the 3V and getting the new 5.0. You know Fords changing the mustang again in 2014.
