Small update

Fixed the bad caliper a few months ago. Still need to replace the dry rotted rear tires and recharge the a/c refrigerant. Car hasn't been moved at all for almost three years.

New edge brakes.

Those twin piston calipers made a huge difference on the car. Very good feel and awesome stopping power over the stockers. Can't wait to later put hawk brake pads The lancer has hawk OES pads and felt better than OEM, so the hps or hps 5.0 should be even better for the mustang.

Been driving the Mustang these past weeks and has worked pretty well. Just had the drivers side window mechanism locked itself on the down position without any aparent reason once. Was a PITA to get the window motor out with the glass down. The motor was ok. I gave the glass a nudge and got it loose. It has been working well ever since

Just this morning I recharged the a/c with some refrigerant and it's working as cold as it was before. No more foggy glass during the rain or getting swamp *** in this hot weather lol.

I'm also trying to stop the rust from spreading even more. Applied some goo on the top to try it out.

Thanks! I'm on the fence of the power adders for now. Would love to boost this thing or go with a 351w. But right now, I'll settle with getting it re-sprayed and fixing/replacing the front seats.

Update

Been using the 94 as a daily for two months now and has been doing good so far. But as you may know with old cars something will always fail. Yesterday morning I started it up as normal an a burnt wire odor surfaced. Noticed my car phone charger wasn't lit so i pulled it out. The thing roasted itself. Went on my way and found out there were no turn signals either. Today I replaced a 15 amp fuse and that solved the problem. Or so I thought. No turn signals again When I get out of my doctor's appointment I'll check this thing. No idea wtf is going on.


Edit: Fixed the issue. It was something that fell into the cig lighter and was causing a short.

Not so good update



That happened on November 18th 2017. I managed to fire it up and took me home. Bad news is that I spent an entire week drying it up and cleaning the inside. And the transmission is busted. Got water inside and damaged the already slipping clutch packs. Only two foward gears work and reverse. And has a nasty short that drains the battery. I'm seriously thinking of parting it out as a donor for a 95 v6 i got to see and can get dirt cheap. Or do a T5 swap or sell it to someone else and get something newer.

End of the line.

The car will be sold to a salvage yard. It will be picked up this Friday.

I hate to see that. I always preferred that body style over the later new edge look of the '99-04's.

Agreed. But the new edge look has grown into me lately.
