Well I can't recall if I shared this or not, I have a 93GT. It's not pretty, it is my drag car though. After trying to build a classic drag car I always ended up having way too much bodywork and never got one far enough along before someone tempted me to sell it. So I got this sad and ugly thing!
It has Strange 8.8 31 spline rear with a spool and 5.14 gears. C-clip eliminators. longer studs. Adjustable Drag shocks on all four corners. Aftermarket upper and lower control arms. Welded-in sub-frame connectors. Was a T5 but is now is a Art Carr C4 with reverse pattern manual shift valve body with a trans brake. 4,000 stall converter. Anti-sway bars removed. Inner bumpers removed. Rear seat removed. Still need to pull dash and remove all the HVAC stuff. AC under the hood is all removed. Has a Cobra top end on a stock short block and a mild cam and roller rockers. I have some long tube headers I haven't installed yet. The TB and injectors are larger, I can't recall at the moment what they are. I bought some donut spares for the front, very light. Need to get some front runner tires. I do have slicks on the rear. I haven't made a pass yet but this summer I will be doing a bunch of test and tune to see if I need different gears or whatever. I don't expect it to be really fast but I am hoping it will be consistent so I can get into the local bracket racing. Anyway, this is the closest I have had an actual drag car. My wife and the race track won't let me race the 67 anymore (needs a cage with the 502).

If I can ever clear out a few projects I’ll be coming to get it. I miss having a mustang in the garage. Everyone that ever looks in my garage wonders why I have all this ford and mustang stuff everywhere with a Chevy truck and boat sitting in it...
