Hey i am looking for a 1987- 1993 fox body 5.0 mustang. i would really like it to be a manual transmission car i dont want a auto. i dont know if you guys are willing to sell them but if you are near VA, and are willing sell it i would be willing to buy it. all it really needs to have is a good body, the engine could have as many miles on it and the interior could be crap :hammer: all i need is the chassis and body to be in good shape :dance: :worship: . if you have one and are willing to sell it please post in here. just post what price you think and please puts up pics.

I have a '67 mustang thats in good shape... wait, I'm not getting rid of it... sorry.
 
I have a 90 GT about half torn apart right now. Price would depend on what goes back in as it has a 306, Tremec, bla, bla, bla, I also have a 91 GT from Cali with all black interior that I am going to keep, so I wouldn't mind selling the 90 as a shell, mostly stock (if you are willing to wait on the work to be done), or shell with a 5.0 short block, and T5 that need rebuilt. I'll try to get some pics. Interior is pretty hit, and it could use a paint job, but it isn't rusty. Just oxidized, and someone befor me wrecked it in the front end. Let me know if it something you might be interested in, and if you need it to runn, or would rather go for just the shell, and/or engine, and tranny that need rebuilt, and I'll work on those pics, and a price.
 
hypedonrc once you get the pics and price i will take a look
 
I've been looking for a 1993 Mustang Gt 5.0 Convertable for like 10 years and the only ones I can find have had the poop beat out of them.. Would be alot easier just looking for a shel I guess.. What are your plans for the car? Please tell me your not making a drift car..
 
I had a 88 5.0 GT..black on gray. I sure miss it. I sold it to get a new 2000 chevy silverado. I sure wish i would have kept my stang tho. That reminds me...if anyone is looking for a 87-93 K&N airfilter for your 5.0 i will let one go pretty cheap. Its in good shape...can take pics if need be.
 
I'll try to get you some pics, but price depends on what you want. By the way, I'm just east of Columbus. Maybe 2 miles from I70, and SR 256.
 
Hypedonrc If this is possible i would like to buy the shell( car ), 306, and the tremec. that would be awesome if i could get pics and a price. thanks keep me posted
 
Yeah, I'll work on those pics. Like I said I have it torn apart right now.Last time I had the clutch apart I replaces the flywheel, and didn't put those little pressure plate alignment pins in the flywheel, so it had a little vibration at 3500 RPM. Needless to say I didn't drive it much last year. I also put new discs, and pads in the front last year, and just put new drums, and pads on the back last week. The 306 shortblock is set up. Clevite 77 bearings, forged .030 over pistons, B303 cam, heavy duty distributer drive..... The heads are stock, but I took them apart, cleaned them up, and put Comp double springs in them. Intake is also stock with a BBK thottle body, cold air induction that goes to the fender with a K&N type filter, and Holly 19Lb injectors. I thought I had a problem with the stock injecters once. That is why I replaced them. Also replaced about every other sensor trying to figure out a intermitant spuder. The shop with a computer told me it said all the sensors were bad according to thier test, but with the cam it was probably wrong. Ended up being the fue pressure regulator, which is now a adjustable BBK. Also has MSD 6AL ignition box, and coil, I can't remamber who makes the plug wires, but they are bigger, and underdrive pullies. No polution pump, or AC anymore. It has an electric fan, and relocated overflow canister. Centerforce II clutch, with an adjustabe clutch cable. Tremec 3550, and bellhousing with Hurst Billet Plus shifter. BBK shorty headers, off road H pipe, and 2 chamber flowmasters with dumps. NIB Ford Motorsports 410 gears uninstalled. Body is in pretty good shape, but could use a paint job. It is black. The interior is grey leather. Well what is left of it. All the plastic is in pretty good shape, but whom ever had it before me didn't take care of it at all. The seats are torn up, and the front ones are duct taped. I have seat cover on the front ones. The carpet is also stained. I'm sure I forgot a few things, but that the most of it. Oh yeah. It has panies with good tires that are a little big on the sidewall for my liking, but I'm sure you will have those burnt off, and replaced by the end of the summer. LOL!!!! I'm thinking if you showed up with $5K cash it would be yours. I have to get serious here for a minute. If you are a minor, I can only sell it to your parents, they will be told all about it just the same, and whom ever buys it will have to sign a waver knowing it is not street legal, and is ment for the track only. So don't show up here without them knowing what's going on. I can't have anyone coming back to me with a ticket, and quote for all the polution stuff, or worse should you go out, and kill yourself. Hopped up Mustangs are alot of fun, but there isn't anything more dangerous than extra HP, and stock brakes at the control of an inexperianced driver. I've about lost control of it a few times, and it isn't fun. This car isn't even safe in the rain, and impossible in the lightest of snow, and it still has stock gears in it.
 
Sweet, I'm really interested. Get those pictures up ASAP. Could you tell me how many miles are on the chassis and how many miles are on the motor and tranny? That would be great. I really want your car just post some pics so I can show my dad. For now that is all the questions I have, I'm sure there will be more thought. Now if only I could get this I can give my brother some competition in his modded 2004 mach 1. Thanks.
 
You put those gears in it, and you will have to look at your brothers car in the rear view mirror. LOL!!!!!!! The car has 180something , and the engine/tranny was rebuilt at 164K. I'll borrow, or buy a digi cam soon.
 
I was going to post my Mustang is for sale too, but I reread he wanted a stick, and it sounds like he's looking for a project anyway. My car is all done except for paint and some tuning....

Good luck with it...
 
hypedonrc do you have pics yet if not could you hurry. my money supplier is going to change his mind ( my dad ) hahahahhaha i am really intrested in your car thanks. i would relly like to see these pics your car sounds awesome.
 
Just bought a digi cam this evening. I'll get it figured out, and get you those pics after work tomorrow.
 
Here are a few pics as it is at the moment. I have some more, but I don't want to wait on uploading them to http://imageshack.us/ any longer. Keeps bombing out, and I have to upload them 2-4 times before they will show up as hosted. I'll E-mail you wome more if you want. I'm busy this week end, but I'll probably put it back together next weekend, and test out the brakes. As you may recall I just put new brakes pads, and drums on the back. Also wanted to mention that the passanger side door lock has been broken into since I have owned it. I have two new door locks from ford with keys, but I never got around to it. Let me know what you think.

 
Just tried to upload the engine bay again, and it said website not responding. Again! Maybe I'll try again tomorrow.
 
hey hypedonrc i like the pics so far so once you get the pics of your engine up that would be great and maybe i could get up there some time and check it out in person alos i was reading the list of what you have done to it and it doesn't matter about the track use only. i am going to do some minor things to it anyways so you need to worry also i was wondering what a pollution pump is? i know alot about cars but i have never herd of it i would really like to know thanks for the update

It is also called a smog pump. It pumps air out of the exhaust from infront of the cats to the back of the heads for reburning. On a 5.0 it is the bottom left pully if you are in front of the car looking at the engine. It only robs power, so I took it off, and sealed the holes in the eshaust, and heads.

I'll try the engine bay soon.
 
I don't know what is wrong with Imageshack, but it won't upload that pic. If not I will try again Sun., or Mon. when I get back in town.
