New guy here in Charleston area, originally from Ohio. I have an '85 Mustang with a stock 302, with headers, H-pipe and Flowmasters. Bought it that way, sounds good but will be changed. Bought it as a project car, runs very good, wasn't a bad buy for $3000. 5-speed manual, T-tops, Cobra R wheels, some overly-huge cowl hood, an updated front end and a slick porno-red interior grace this beauty :laugh2:

The only pic I really have, uploaded by a friend from his cell phone, I currently do not have a camera here on base :mad:

I have owned all types of cars, a 2007 Civic Si, 2000 Dodge Dakota and a 2004 SRT-4 are the ones really worth mentioning, some pics

The Si:

Had some Evo VIII wheels on it before I wasted a stupid amount of cash on the Volk wheels

I bought the Mustang to make a pretty quick street car, it's got some work that needs done, that's for sure. Just looking for some local car people :cheers

it's enlist...:hysterical: that's why you can't join the AF, non-spellers have to join the other forces, the AF don't want no mis-spelled words on their golf score cards.... JK

the AF is a good deal, sounds like some nice toys. i love the civic.

i saw that Mustang on the Lemon Lot on the AFB.

i think you will be amazed at how much work it needs.

LRS sells all 3 shocks/struts in a cheap package.... :boohoo:


welcome!!!

Yeah thats the one! I could really care less about how it looks, I care more of about the go-fast, and it runs great, so it will work for what I want it for

Welcome to the board. I must say, you had a pretty clean Civic, there.

famous last words....my dad's mustang about wore me out.

here's a good kit:
http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/products/Mustang-Shock-Strut-And-Spring-Kits

i bought all my parts peice meal, and it was more expensive, and i had to drive ALL over.

and NO ONE local could find the quad shocks. finally ended up with some weird KYB shocks. but no one REALLY knows what the quad shocks do, so i figured a wierd shock would be ok.

there is a guy on carolina rides who is a Ford Dealer, and he sells OEM stuff at rock bottom prices.


guy on there too, who sells "crash parts" so he has headlight/foglights/tailights cheap.


i really like the look of that civic.

I saw that thing there for over a month....could have sworn I saw it still there a couple of nights ago. I work graveshift, so I stroll by the lemon lot every night looking for fresh meat when boredom hits. Sometimes there are good deals from people PCS'ing overseas and having to get rid of an extra car (their beater).

It's good that you got it for 3K, cause I think he was wanting something stupid like 4.5K. If it was selling for more like 2.5K and was an '87 or newer, I would have picked it up (been looking at Foxes off and on for awhile now).

What is your job (please don't say crew chief or Load-toad)?

Good luck with the car and welcome.
