Here is a picture of the daily driver I just picked up for work. It's a '93 lx 5.0 5 speed that I passed for a month without looking at it because I expected it to be too expensive. Then one day a 'stang friend said he was going to look at a blown green stang that evening. I asked where it was and when I found out it was the same car I just had to go check it out. The end result is I got this car for $5,800 with the following mods and only 70,000 miles.
Turned out it was heavily modified by the first owner and the second owner bought it with 14,000 miles and all the modifications on it already. He didn't know much about the car and basicly drove it. Turns out he wrecked it twice and it's been repainted. I'm working out the bugs in the front suspension and some engine gremlins.
Here you can see one of the neat things that sets this car apart. It has the rare SAAC MkII emblems on the quarter windows and the small oval SAAC insert for the steering wheel that covers the Ford oval emblem. Looks really cool. There is a chrome tape stripe on the body moulding that needs replaced and I'm going to keep it on. Under the 5.0 emblems is an extra 'lx' emblem on each fender that I don't care about but isn't coming off either. The tire package is 255/50HR15 Cooper Cobras on the rear and 245/45HR15 Bridgestones on the front. In the background is the Capri on stands awaiting another tranny.
Now what does this picture tell you? Form the top everything on this car was installed back in '93-'95 so it's all old school. Also note that everything on the engine is polished, but the second owner left it fade and it looks like crap in this picture.
FMS strut tower brace, Paxton SN-92 6lb blower, GT-40 polished intake, 65mm 5.8l FMS throttle body, 70mm FMS MAF meter, 24lb FMS injectors, FMS 1.72 5.8l roller rockers, FMS chrome stock valve covers, FMS shorty headers, FMS off road H pipe, Flowmaster 3 chamber mufflers, 3.55 FMS gears, FMS bolt in subframe connectors.
