Default Yellow H/C/I 1989 coupe

Where do I start. Car has history from 5.0 Mustang magazine for many of the upgrades.
Original 89' block w/ forged pistons. Ed Curtis from (FTI) prepped the AFR 165's w/ springs, Roller rocker's and custom grind cam. 30lb inj's, Trick Flow Track Heat (ported to a 1262 gasket) all stainless bolts, 75mm Accufab TB w/ matching Accufab EGR delete/spacer, 75mm Pro-M MAF, Custom 4" Cold Air, Valve cover studs, K&N Breather element, New balancer, and front engine gaskets, A/C has been deleted for a super clean look but I still have all equipment to go back on. Minus a high pressure hose that was missing when I purchased the car (around $30 from Advanced Auto Parts), Brand new steering rack, Poly sway bar bushings, KYB Gr-2 struts, FMS "C" springs at all four corners. Battery relocated to trunk, Engine bay wiring relocated to wheel well, w/No problems whatsoever. MSD Pro-billet dist. with Crane wires. Hi-flo 180* thermostat, brand new Aluminum Radiator w/aluminum shroud, 3g alt upgrade. Ceramic coated BBK full length's, X-pipe, Mac mufflers. Dummy stainless tails. No smoking, slight rear main seal leak if driven "spiritedly" everyday use/easy driving no issues at all. I have made 3 trips to Ga. in the last 8mos (over 800 miles round trip) and have knocked down over 20+mpg at 70-75mph. Could not be happier with the reliability since I have owned it (a little over a year).

T-5 trans shifts flawless everyday driving, a very slight 1-2 "grind" at "full get-up". Might be a adjustment. I was told it had a new billet flywheel, and clutch (fidanza). It does have a MGW short throw shifter.

SSBC 13" front brake kit w/ SS Brake lines. 11" rear, 5 lug conversion w/ 18" Falken Torq-5's 255-45r & 245-40frnt, fully built (axles, trac. loc)rear w/ 3.73's, fresh 190lph fuel pump, filter, fuel reg, and fuel press. line.

Interior has been converted to black, Front and rear seats, console, headliner and carpet original black. Panels and dash dyed. A-pillar pod with water temp, and a/f meter.

I will include more as I go through it, as you can see it's late (12:15am) and I am bummed as I type this but its a noble cause because I'm gonna be having another boy (#2) and I gotta be ready for that. So I've decided to use the cash from this for that and take a small (hopefully very small) break from my beloved car scene and focus for awhile. I'll def. be back though.

Thanks for looking, and e-mail me any questions or requests to foxnotch@yahoo.com. I will answer in the order received.

More pics are coming, interior etc, and a few boo-boo's (nothing perfect right?)

See what kind of offer's I may get.
Thanks guys, It really sucks to get rid of her.......
