Well now that I signed up to be one of the Elite I'm going to start a registry, and keep this going as a running blog of sorts.
I see alot of new guys and gals joining the site and asking the same questions over and over again. So instead of having somebody say "USE THE SEARCH BUTTON DUMMY" and driving a new member away, I hope that those members out there that help instead of criticize, link back to this registry as well as other Elite Member's registries showing the knowledge we have gained being new to this place.
I myself am your typical shade-tree mechanic. I don't have a lift, or a welder, my air tools and compressor are cheap Wal-Mart value. I work with hand tools and good old elbow grease.
When a project becomes too much for my small arsenal, it goes to a professional. The X-pipe and cat back on the Mustang Stand out the most in my mind. I got as far as the cats and said "Yep, time to go to Meineke" and drove it 10 miles at 7a.m. on a Saturday running just about straight pipes
)
My best friend is a mechanic and he's pretty helpful at times ("You break one header stud, and I'm outta here")
I'll add more to this as time goes on, but for now I think this is pretty good.
And, now on with the show:

This is how it looked when I first brought it home. It was in the driveway only 10 mins. and I had already installed a Lund hood deflector and AVS window rain guards.
I started with this POS. A '98 Sport 4.0L OHV with 108K on the odometer.
AND JUST LOOK AT THIS NICE INTERIOR:
I got rid of because it always had a horrible thump while driving which was later found out to be the CV axle, that and every other week something else broke on it. :thumbdwn:
I also have one of these on the side. 2002 3.8L V6 auto - I rescued it froma Chrysler dealership.
