97 explorer sport
hello my name is steven. i am from new jersey (unfortunately). i am going to be 18 in a couple of days (the 29th). i DO NOT have a car as of right now. i had a 98 nissan altima that i got for 500 bucks from my cousin until that crapped out on me and i should be taking it to the junk yard hopefully tomorrow. im ready for a new car and it is going to be an explorer!!! im going tomorrow to look at a 97 explorer sport with around 100000 miles on it. i really wanna get to know cars and specialize in explorers so ANY and ALL help is greatly appreciated. once i get my explorer my plans are to lift it (not to sure how soon that will happen), my friend totaled his ranger so he is going to give me his old k&n cold air intake and head unit (obviously not K&N) for 100 bucks!! its black so im going to black the entire thing out, tint the windows, smoke the lights, trim, all that fun stuff!! im obviously going to get new wheels with the lift!! not to sure what though (haven't decided yet) going to get a roof rack for a spare!! probably gonna get the rack lights! what would really help me out would be if any one with the same type of explorer im getting could maybe post some pictures of theirs lifted and modded and what not. and maybe give me some suggestions on what to do!! well this post is beginning to get way to long so thanks everyone for posting!! talk soon!!
