I dont know if this is my first car considering the Galaxie, which is in peices and hasnt run in 30 years, but I'll call it my first car. She's an '86 Mustang GT Hatchback with an 88 EFI 5.0 in it. It's got offroad pipes, and it sounds real good. It's been wrecked a while back, and they replaced the driver door and front panel. There is a little damage underneath but it hardly drifts. Here's some photos, not very good just taken real quickly. Im very proud of this car, and glad to be a mustang owner 
and just to show ya'll the Galaxie...here she is, I've kinda started a little restoration, so far not much but put it on jackstands and torn off the front end.

Very nice... how many miles does the EFI 5.0 have on it?

Once again, thanks for all the feedback! And im glad everyone agrees on the wheels, they'd look nicer if it had bigger brakes behind it, but the stock ones look better.

you should go on carfax and check it out... that should tell you wether it was rolled over or not for sure. I love the car dude. I wish you all the luck with it. Make sure that you keep us posted on future mods.

Right now the car is in south oklahoma, and i live in north oklahama. We are going to south OK pretty soon. I'll get some better pics sometime. I'm eager to get it here, but it needs small work to be road ready, mainly power steering, because its leaking.
