Default New Member from Tx

New member from Beaumont Tx. I have had several Mustangs, but its been probably 10 years. I sold my last one, 90 notch (unfinished) right before I got married in 2002. Since then I spent some time, and money, in 4x4 trucks and Jeeps. Anyway, I've been wanting to get back into a Mustang for my new project.

Definitely wanted another fox body, and definitely wanted another notch.

Been doing a lot of reading and I'm really leaning towards a LSX swap. I know it makes the Ford guys mad, but I think its definitely the best bang for the buck. I definitely of found a lot of good info on here already, and look forward to a bunch more.

Here are a couple quick pics of the car I'll be working with:

Picking it up to bring it home:

Picked up an extra set of wheels/tires:

Welcome back into the game! Looks like you got a good base, it is in excellent shape.

Good luck on the swap...

Its in pretty good shape. Not perfect, but not as bad as most I looked at. I just got it back from the shop. Had through the floor sub-frames installed, torque boxes welded up, fenders rolled, and a few other small things. Been slammed with work, so I haven't even got the interior back in yet lol. It does already have a full Aeromotive A1000 fuel system and the rear end has an Auburn Pro with 4.10's.

I'm going to start looking around for a good donor for an LS swap and see what I can find.
