4EYE3D Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 The Story: Im going to Lincoln Tech. starting August 5th and wanted a project car for this summer. Looking around i became more and more interested in a 5.0 Mustang around the years 1979-1986. Known as 4 eyes for its headlights. Found one for a hell of a deal told the guy iI wanted it and he sells it out from under me for $50 more an hour befor i get there with my money. Started the search all over again and found this beauty. http://picture.vzw.com/mi/416425134_1444409562_0.jpeg?limitsize=580,480&outquality=56&ext=.jpg&border=1,0,0,0http://picture.vzw.com/mi/416424537_1444407329_0.jpeg?limitsize=580,480&outquality=56&ext=.jpg&border=1,0,0,0http://picture.vzw.com/mi/416424013_1444405490_0.jpeg?limitsize=580,480&outquality=56&ext=.jpg&border=1,0,0,0http://picture.vzw.com/mi/416422091_1444398724_0.jpeg?limitsize=580,480&outquality=56&ext=.jpg&border=1,0,0,0 I realized most of my time will be spent on CR talking about my car and realized I would be just another guy with a 5.0 Mustang and decided I could be one of the first guys to have a z31 on CR. Bought the car for $1300 with 110,000 miles on body and tranny and a freshly swapped VG30E with 67,000 under its belt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4EYE3D Posted July 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 LolRyan and I decided to get a little ingenuitive with our senior tag game, some say we took it too far. I say it was just right. 20 Gallon air compressor with 4 gallons of water mounted with bungee cords upside to allow water to flow out through hose to spray nozzle strapped to my seat belt. http://www.ryanhallarn.com/wp-photos/20090521-172315-1.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4EYE3D Posted July 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Just pulled out the motors for the headlights and mounted them to the body so they stay down all the time. http://picture.vzw.com/mi/416421809_1444397702_0.jpeg?limitsize=580,480&outquality=56&ext=.jpg&border=1,0,0,0http://picture.vzw.com/mi/416421195_1444395570_0.jpeg?limitsize=580,480&outquality=56&ext=.jpg&border=1,0,0,0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4EYE3D Posted July 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Strange as it sounds i was gonna ask you when i called you how much would you want to drop one in if i supplied the motor and tranny? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Removed Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 (edited) you want it injected or carbed?...lol if you go injected, make sure you get the mass air stuff... find a wrecked 5.0 95 or down. the 94-95 intake might make it easyer on plumbing the intake in that engine bay.. but not really needed.

4EYE3D Posted July 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 I can pretty much only find fuel injected so im gonna go with that. Im looking at a 1989 grand marquis with the 5.0 in it for $300 tell me what you think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
