Default Bought my first Stang!
Sup guys. My name is John and I am from the McKinney area.

I recently took the plunge and bought my first 5.0 Mustang.

I have a 1989 LX 5.0. She needs a little love, but is a good platform to start. I plan to make it a strong street daily driver/car show worthy car. It will take a looong time. The previous owner took a lot of short cuts and I am trying to figure a lot of things out right now

I was out at the Coffee and Cars this morning and saw a few of your members so I thought I would look you up.

As soon as I get the Stang rolling I would like to meet up and check out some rides!

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.
