Hey, welcome to my little corner I'm making for my Mustang. To be honest, my first love is not Rangers, it's Mustangs......but I still am a huge Ranger fan. Anyway, I've owned this Mustang since January 19, 1995. Needless to say, I have PLENTY of stories about it. It honestly still has the original motor with about 187,000 miles and the T5 trans has about 1,000 miles on it.

It has GT-40P heads, a 5.0 Explorer lower intake manifold, a Downs Ford upper intake (breadbox style), Explorer 65mm throttle body, Accufab 65mm EGR spacer, Crane Cams/FMS 1.7 ratio roller rockers (93 Cobra factory part), 24 lb. FMS injectors, 73mm Vortech/C&L mass air meter, Air Charge Temperature sensor relocation kit, BBK Underdrive Pulleys, MAC Headers (for now), MAC O/R H-Pipe, MAC Flowpath Catback, FMS Aluminum Driveline, Hurst Shifter (same as Saleen), FMS 3.55 ring and pinion, and an FMS King Cobra Clutch.

A little over 5 years ago I started this restoration project. Please enjoy the ride.

Moving right along, this was one of the cars that the paint flaked off. I literally quit washing it because paint would fall off every time I washed it.






This little spot is the only rust hole on the car. There was some surface rust, but this was the only official "cancer" in the car.

I am really really looking forward to working on it some more. It sat all last summer, and I only started it 4 or 5 times. Poor thing.

Gotta get my left leg feeling better so I can push the clutch though.
