Hey All,
I am excited and glad I found this forum .. with that being lets get to the important stuff. This is my first Mustang that I have owned even though I have been a Ford enthusiast since I was a young kid. I have always been into car's and modifying them. I first picked up my 1982 Ford Mustang GT from my girlfriends father. He has owned it since 1982 and it has been in a barn in Wisconsin since 1996 under a tarp. I have been trying to pick up the car since 2015 from him. He finally got some time and I went and picked it up in Spring of 2017. The car has been so much fun. The car was factory 4 speed SROD and I swapped that to a WC T5 which made a great difference. One day I found the car was leaking from the rear main and began replacing the rear main seal and found the main bearing was going bad, I then decided to build a motor. I then went and picked up a 347 stroker and started assembly I am currently almost finished with building the motor, the car is also now getting a built C4 transmission with trans brake. I will also be upgrading the rear end this winter and installing a cage and all the necessary suspension components.
When I first picked it up from the Barn:
