“The Roaring Beast”
Its a GT First of all, Buyed it in worse than average condition for almost nothing the engine was pulling so hard that i needed this car!! mecanicAL CONDITION IS very good tought but suffered from a lack of suspension due to no-maintenance of the previous owners. So, i've renewed all suspension all around shock bushings, tie rods, links, ball-joints. etc. have done many body touchup and ADDED 16 INCHES WHEELS FROM A 1997 MUSTANG GT WITH ORIGINAL SIZE 225-50ZR-16 BRAND NEW TIRES (KHUMO)
added some missing body parts (always in need of a spoiler for 1997 (1996 similar i guess) renewed electronic devices like distributor assy. map sensor, reworked some burned wires from missrouting (heat welded against the other) that almost killed my alternator. Have to change it to have peace of mind (i suspect it to be weak ammeter show lower than abitually when hot) Spend time and money like a mindless guy at the beginning but i'm sourcing spare parts and the car is well 2nd floor dry barn keeped and i drive it once a year for now. as i have many cars (4). only 900 probes of all trim have seen saled to canada so for the gt maybe 450 - 500? What a rare car is why i keep it! not for sale ever too.
