Owned a '79 Mustang 302 4 spd Cobra (new, factory ordered) and a '79 302 4 spd Capri RS. Would not recommend the Fox body mustang as a reliable car. Cable clutch, stupid serpentine belt crap, put me off new cars forever, never owned another. Best thing about them was the 302.
However, I would trade in my 16 yr old (firstborn) son in a heartbeat for an '07 Shelby.
Any takers?

Had a 1984 GT350 20th anniversary edition Mustang but my ex tricked me into trading it off. So now I got rid of the ex and am looking for another Mustang.

Thanks for the links, I will check them out
In the short term, exhaust, brakes and a couple of tyres
When I get my 54F100 finished (another year or two) I shall get into the bodywork, repaint, new hood etc.

i got an 83 f 100 and a 66 coupe. drive the 83 but the mustang has a burned out trans now and is in storage, but i just bought a 76 granada for parts for it. my 66 has a 351/c4 in it im gonna put the 250/c4 from the granada in it, and the disc brakes. a 351 is just too much weight on the front end, i got like 7 degrees of negative caster. and front drum brakes suk! but i love the car and gatto get it back on the road soon. they just dont make em like that anymore.

mustang help
A good site I've found is www.allfordmustangs.com/ They are helpful, but some of the forums can be rather juvenile.
