Default New to this forum with 1993 Mustang Convertible 2.3L

Hi, I am new here.
I just bought a 1993 2.3L Convertible.

new-forum-1993-mustang-convertible-2-3l-1993_mustang.jpg
I have already ripped the 14" rims off of her, and replaced them with 16" ponies, changed the stereo from the low end aftermarket one that was in there, to a panasonic that I had lying around.
The car is in pretty decent shape, and has about 108K on it.
There is no rust on it, except for some surface rust on the alternator blade.
The interior seats, carpet and steering wheel need to be replaced, and on the exterior, I will be replacing the headlights, and the luggage rack, and getting some paint.
I am not sure what else I will be doing to it, but that is what I am thinking so far.

I had a 1988 2.3 4 banger automatic, dark blue with white leather interior and white top. Gourgeous car but it was the slowest that I've ever had.

I don't care so much about the speed, it is much slower, and has less than 1/4 the horsepower and torque of my other car.
This is more of trying to make a nice looking, but gas sipping daily driver.
