Re: never go full ricer
While it isn't my taste, and I'm hardly a fan of Mustangs in general, the car doesn't look awful. Now, if this were a Taurus, it would be a completely different story.

Could be worse, I4 EcoBoost, if it was the latest model.

The 3.8 ohv essex made about the same power and that was lighter, easier to work on, and had a better aftermarket. I wish they kept that as the base engine and kept improving it.
well ,at least it performs better than the 2.3 sohc pinto engine.

If the fog lights in the grille are original than it actually has the 4.6L SOHC 3v making a whole 300HP. I like Mustangs, I have a 2013... but this... this is why people bust on the cars and their owners... gaudy crap like this .

Honestly though, I wouldn't be surprised if they take those to car shows.
