wow that's looking really nice Sazxus. I had a maroon 90 mustang GT (hatchback) until 3 years ago. I stopped at a Chrysler lot to check out the PT Cruisers, and the manager of the shop there fell in love with my mustang at first site, and they literally kept me there until I got the tradein offer I wanted, and 6 hours later I cleaned it out and drove off in a new car that I didn't really intend to buy...

But I love this PT Cruiser every day. I do miss the power sometimes (and the Alpine stereo), but I enjoy having more space cuz I travel out of town with friends and family sometimes.

Good luck with rebuilding your stang.

I had an 89 LX 5.0 back when I was in the service. I got a good deal on mine at a police auction ($3850 in 1990). And like you, I tore the engine apart. I put TFS heads on it, roller rockers, an off road 3" H-frame exhause with 2, 2-chamber borla mufflers, and other goodies. I was looking at getting a powerdyne supercharger but I ended up going to a flea market and found a 9psi K. Belle supercharger (conventional hp) for $1800 - no way I could pass up a deal like that. I put a GT-40 intake and ported exhaust manifold - on the dyno WITHOUT catalytic converter, I was pushing almost 440 bhp. That car was creepy fun but scary. If you decide to do all of that (meaning what I did), just be careful. That light rear-end you hear about mustangs having - it's the truth and unless you are thinking about adding wheel weights in the back, I'd be very careful about "punching" it if you know what I am saying. Unlike the GT, I didn't have the heavier sway bar kit. Heh, just be careful with all that power man. I say that because I almost killed myself in mine.

I had one of these (1987 Monte Carlo SS) ... it had been very well taken care of and had super low mileage.

It was my "other" car so when I wanted to buy my first condo I sold it off for a down payment on this:
