hey guys, i know i was'nt her long , but i got a fair offer for my 97 sho......long story short...
i was diagnosed with cancer again , and i decided to splurge alittle on myself...i still have chemo and other treatment to deal with , but i beielve i will be ok in time....
it's been fun the short time i have been here, and i appreciated all the help that was given....

i'll still stop in as i can't wait till the new sho rolls out, the dealer told me it is happening when i bought this car, who knows maybe they did'nt know what they were talking abou t, but here is my new toy....

yep, some tastefull mods, i did not want to buy a modded 1 as you know what that means, paid 10800 for it...69k 03 gt
it is lowered
magnaflow mufflers
hurst shifter/kit
tint
mach 1 lip spoiler in front,
car is mint other than a light condenstion in the pass light, no big deal as headlamp sets are cheap, but i'm going to try to fix it first when it gets warmer....the car looks and runs like a brand new car...i love it.., but i truly miss my sho on the comfort side..

yeah once you drive a SHO its hard to not want to drive one again, buts its a great feeling when you have been driving a ************* for awhile and then you drive your SHO it feels amazing

but nice GT not to heavily modded but it has what it needs to look good and sound nice

i really like the mach 1 front lip it looks really good

Id drop my DD SHO in a second to get a car like that, no way I could afford it though, so rusted pos SHO it is. Nice car though man, I have to say if I was going to get one that's pretty much exactly what I would buy, I love that color on that year it looks awesome :thumb:

Being a cancer survivor myself, I feel your pain. There's nothing wrong with a little "self" medication.:sun:

yeah, but one of these reason i use to drive the twin turbo vr-4 was the fact that they are alot more scarce than mustangs, but hey who cares..i got a newer car and it's not a pita like the vr-4....motor shot of the vr-4 as you can see what a tight fit, at least i can put a sc in there, and have room to spare..:)

sold that one for 10k to a kid in wisconsin....hopefully he took care of it, as you can see i did...but like i said if you don't have deep pockets stay away from them as you can't get tranny parts, which they eat
they love to spin bearing,drop valves and leak fluids, electrical problems and more.....they are very high maintanence

btw, that was a 91 with 137,000 iles on it..the red one with the black wheels had 160k on it...both original motors..
they just don't take well to beatings :)...i got lucky, i am a member of 3si as well, and there are many horror stories about them .

I just got my first SHO a week ago, and the engine blew up in my driveway...I actually traded a 91 mustang for it...I just got a '68 mustang project, so I'll be back in a mustang soon enough. Mustangs are like a snow flake, they all look very simular, but each one is slightly different, yours is a good looking one compared to most...congrats with the horse trade...
