My New addition/Driving project

97GSTANG · December 24th, 2011, 04:48 PM

I just picked up this 1997 Mustang Gt 5 speed runs real good and strong.. It has quite a few bolt ons which include accufab TB and Plenum,BBk CAI,BBK O/R H-pipe with Mac Cat-back,373 gears,Cobra staggered wheels and a NOS set-up with bottle heater and purge hooked up through the hood.... It does need some work mostly small stuff but does need a new core support which I have already ordered and have a shop thats going to do it for me then Im going to have it painted.... I've been looking for months for a decent mustang for months and besides the core support its a straight car def a pretty clean interior... When I start the work on it I'll post it up on here....

How much you pay for it miles? Already has the cobra front bumper nice find from what i can tell.

97GSTANG · December 24th, 2011, 04:57 PM

Paid 2k for it and it has 102k.. Bumper is going to be replaced with another cobra bumper its got a pretty good chunk of plastic missing from one of the top tabs...

projectGT · December 24th, 2011, 05:53 PM

Nice!

97GSTANG · December 24th, 2011, 06:30 PM

Thanks I'm pretty excited... Ready to start getting her looking as good as she runs...

number1gt · December 24th, 2011, 07:52 PM

Looks really nice! 2k? That's a damn good deal, what color are you painting it? I would get new headlights to lol

97GSTANG · December 24th, 2011, 08:06 PM

I'm going to stay white and going to sell the wheels to my buddy and get me a set of anthracite FR500's... I like those wheels had them on a 97 I owned a few years back....

glittle75 · December 24th, 2011, 08:35 PM

very nice. Favorite body style and favorite color. Keep that nitrous, start collecting parts for a PI swap then really roll out in that thing!

97GSTANG · December 24th, 2011, 08:51 PM

Yeah the nitrous is not going anywhere and the engine and suspension is the next to work on after the cosmetics...

96-GT_Josh · December 24th, 2011, 09:38 PM

Why does it need a core support? From the pics the front end minus the passenger headlight looks pretty damn square and solid.

Nice find btw. Wish I could find just a decent roller for a good price.

97GSTANG · December 24th, 2011, 09:49 PM

When the previous owner put the nitrous on it he used it and he punched it when he was behind a semi and wasnt prepared for the nitrous and tried to go around it and clipped the semi which pushed in the middle of the core support... So he decided to try and fix it so he cut it and pulled it back out now its ugly and the hood latch doesnt line up and i want it structurally sound... and I want it to look nice....

97GSTANG · December 24th, 2011, 09:58 PM

The guy that wrecked it was a idiot that car was prestine when he got it not one thing wrong with it and he modded it,wrecked it and tried to paint it and it looks like crap glad I saved it...

darkmajesty · December 25th, 2011, 12:21 AM

Nice find. I really like those rims.. I think i will go with those for my car.. I have a set of saleens but just decided not to go with them as everyone has them.. plus you cant beat a set of dished rims on our body style. Nice buy!

97GSTANG · December 25th, 2011, 02:21 AM

Exactly I only like the 94-98 body style for me it the only one I wanna own at this point..

blakenel1122 · December 25th, 2011, 06:52 PM

Love those wheels! i wish i could trade you mine if your looking for some FR's

97GSTANG · December 25th, 2011, 06:57 PM

I would but already promised my buddy the wheels but if he ends up not buying them I'll give you a shout....

blakenel1122 · December 25th, 2011, 07:40 PM

sweet! i have been looking for your wheels for a while! just not looking to spend the full price on them

97GSTANG · December 25th, 2011, 07:57 PM

I hear ya these wheels are not perfect but I should have all the curb rash fixed before I replace them... I can get them fixed at my job for next to nothing.... Never have actually seen these wheels deep dish....

blakenel1122 · December 27th, 2011, 02:38 PM
