I was just wondering if anyone here is my age? I'm 14

[heavy metal]

i am your age times 3,lol...glad to see you starting out with Mustangs,your a smart kid!

[red102793]

My dad owned so a 69 hardtop for his frist and my brother owned a 89 hatchback ( now mine) so it runs in the blood

I was your age 3 years ago lol! Keep that blue oval in the blood! I was also raised in a ford family, I bleed ford blue. And that's a good car to start out with. Be like me, keep it for a while, do the work on it by yourself and with your dad, brother, or anyone who knows cars in the family. You will learn a bunch from that car and doing so will give you skills you can use for the rest of your life. Not only skills like how to work with engines and such but when you get your permit, it's a fun car to learn with, gives the skills of driving. Play around with it and learn and have fun. Learn how to change oil, do tune ups, etc. A lot of fun and useful. How do I know? Because I was in the same exact boat, '90 2.3L convertable automatic, first car. Bought her wrecked, almost totalled, and fixed her giving her a new life and me new skills, a lot of them, such as how to burnout lol (not to incourage you to do so) but eventually, and here in a week, my first engine swap . Glad your interested in mustangs and the world of automobiles. Be safe and have fun with the pony!

Yeah I'm pretty close to your age. I am 17. My Grandpa drag races mustangs. I loved mustangs before I was even hatched LOL! When my mom was pregnant with me my dad had a 79 mustang I think it had a 5.0 in it. But every time he would stand on that thing I would go to kicking and I would also go to kicking when my grandpa would start up his 84 mustang dragster and it had a 460 in it. I started liking mustangs very early in my life. Ne ways... Yeah I'm close to your age you may add me as a friend if you would like.

Ya about a year ago my brother put it in a ditch wrecked the whole front nose and fenders but me and my dad rebuilt her and sent it back to him and he abused and gave it to me a weel ago. I paid 10$ for a junkyard bumper instead of 250$ from foxbodyrestortion. It only has 67,000 miles on it and was in florida for 10 years. I have to go back and refit the nose and fenders (rushed it the frist time) and redo the exhasut ( I'm thinking header in to a flowmaster cat and into a Y pipe and 3 inch all the way into dual exhuast with two flowmaster 40s').


P.S I just changed the oil about 2 hours ago

Keep up the good work then guys. Hey red I know how you feel about fixing the front end, cept mine was messed up because the guy who owned it broke up with his girlfriend who went nuts and for revenge decided to drive her dad's big jacked up early '90s f-150 pick up both into the front end and then eventually OVER the front end, had tire marks on the hood! Crazy women drivers

HAHAHA! Thats the truth! Wemon are crazy drivers . Well at least she didn't take a Louisville slugger to the stang.

[red102793]

That sucks must have been a pain to replace luckly my brother just cracked it off a tree so just it and the bumper had to be replaced. I hate crazy women drivers especially in giant trucks or chevy's
