Default A Better Introduction

Ok, some of you may have noticed that I am having a slight overheating problem with my car which was how I came to this board in the first place, but as a better introduction, I thought I'd throw up a link to some pictures and a little info on myself.

My name is Mike, I found this mustang on E-bay and kinda sniped it. I called the guy that was selling it and offered him $8500 cash, and flew out to Seattle the next day with a friend to pick it up and drove back. Here's the auction I found it on (donno how long e-bay will keep it there though)
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1996-...QQcmdZViewItem

So far, I've changed the rims up to 18's, tires to the Kohmo Ecsta ASX 18's, new windshield, new thermostat, new waterpump, and new back ceramic brakes. So far, total investment in the vehicle would probably be about $12,000 and I would say it has been well worth it. The car is blazingly fast, and if I can get the overheating thing licked, it will be perfect. I don't know what mods I may do in the future, but I'm massively into electronics so in the future you guys may get pics of in-dash TV's, DVD players, killer sound systems, alarms and more, kinda like the car that I sold to semi-finance the new one - > http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=180015729379

Only the future can tell where my Cobra will take me!

- Mike

I didn't see some subframe connectors. But other than that, enjoy it, she's a beaut.
