1988 Mustang 5.0
 
I got a Foxbody about 5 weeks ago and I've been working pretty hard to restore it and modify it to my taste. I haven't done much yet, but I thought I might show some pictures. It's not the fastest out there, and certainly not the cleanest, but it's a fun car for me and I've been happy with it thus far. I worked hard for it.

All I've really done so far is a lot of maintenance with the help of my dad in the garage. The only noteworthy modifications so far are the KYB struts and shocks and Eibach Proline springs. Very happy with that set up.

The day I got it:

About 4 weeks later:

My goal is to keep all modifications tasteful and untrendy, and a car that just about anyone could at least appreciate. I know many will hate my fraternity letters on the back and likely find them obnoxious, but it's an important part of my life and I take pride in representing them on my car.

I'm open to suggestions and criticism, as I have seen so many different setups with these cars that I'm not sure which direction to step in.
