Default Just moved back home

Hey all, I'm Scott and I live in Lakeland. I'm new to TR, but a racing vet. I did drags in Jax, both legal and illegal (way back when), and also in Cincinnati. I'm currently building my newest project, which is an '87 Mustang GT.

I was a member of NMRA, Porsche Club America (South Georgia Chapter), and a co-founder of Velocity Mustangs in Kingsland, GA.

I look forward to meeting many of you on the track.

Thanks for reading.

Welcome to TR.
Why did you choose the 87 GT?
Any advantages?-Bob

Well, I built and later sold, a 97 GT, and loved it. But the 6mpg, and suspension that would ratlle the fillings from your teeth.....don't miss that.

I found this one and it needed help. Long story short (not whining), but y wife left and took my son, so on nights I don't have him, I wanted to occupy my time.
Plus, this is a sunroof car, and I wanted a GT. I have an 86 LX I was going to convert, but man....I'm too damn lazy. It's going to be a fun to drive car, not a 10sec monster like the 97 was.
