Quality 5.0

Casper98GT · October 10th, 2007, 11:08 PM

As a normal customer, we treat him like everyone else and service his car in the normal intervals. Being that he has 454,942 miles, things tend to get changed. Just did the wires, plugs, coil, dist. and starter/flywheel. Wanna know when a flywheel really goes bad...at 450,000 miles.

This may be the longest living Mustang 5.0 ever im not sure. But if anyone knows how i can find out the most milage for a 5.0 ever i would like to see more miles that this ..

MATT02GT · October 10th, 2007, 11:33 PM

baine21225 · October 10th, 2007, 11:34 PM

Timm10221 · October 11th, 2007, 09:07 AM

Holy crap... i was think my 95 @ 95400 was getting up there... does the car still pull hard

Speedstang302 · October 11th, 2007, 09:46 AM

wow..he has 8 times more miles than me..+1 for a nice 400k mile mustang

Casper98GT · October 11th, 2007, 11:05 AM

I dunno about Pulls hard because its one of the only Mustangs i have ever driven thats stock. But yeah still has the 5.0 performance.

notsoslow50 · October 11th, 2007, 01:19 PM

damn i think you just met the guy that traveled the world in a car.

ryans88gt · October 11th, 2007, 01:30 PM

the world is approx 25,000 miles in circumference, so he actuall traveled around the world about 18 times

orangeRcode · October 11th, 2007, 01:53 PM

Very impressive especially for how clean the car looks. What does he do to rack up that much mileage?

Casper98GT · October 11th, 2007, 02:18 PM

Traveling Software something or rather. He lives up here in New Hamsphire and trips to Florida and california are usually part of a normal week. I guess he doesnt need a nice car even with the money he has.

notsoslow50 · October 11th, 2007, 02:50 PM

i wish he kept track of all his gas reciepts so we could know how much he spent in gas over all those miles..i know hmusn or ryan is going to figure it out mathematically. i love smart people.

40thmustanggt · October 11th, 2007, 04:24 PM

my cousins 91 ex police 5.0 has around 300,000 hard miles on it the gauge cluster went out on it around 240,000 when he change it out with a used one.. those motors are built like tanks gotta love the ole pushrod motors

Casper98GT · October 11th, 2007, 04:27 PM

95opal · October 11th, 2007, 04:51 PM

Thats fawking amazing. Any rebuilds during its life? Got to love the 5.0

Speedstang302 · October 11th, 2007, 06:32 PM

^ yeah thats my question!!

Casper98GT · October 12th, 2007, 10:34 AM

No motor rebuilds. No head jobs, stock valve covers that look like they are going to fall off or crumble into pieces though.

rear end was done 3 times in its life because the teeth broke off.
