    Default New guy here from SC

    Hi everybody. I found out about this forum from someone who wanted me to check out the flea market.

    I've checked around the rest of the site and it looks like the kind of place that I'd like to hang around.

    Name is Tom, I'm in Charleston, SC. I've got 5 SN95 Mustangs:

    1994 Cobra #519, 306ci with a MP T70 Turbo build up underway, formerly was running a 150 shot.

    1994 V6 Coupe, 5 spd. Bolt-ons (longtubes, Spec clutch, pro-dumps). It's my daily beater.

    1995 V6 Coupe, 3.8L split port swap, gave it to my dad for his 50th bday. We're taking care of the bodywork and other general stuff. It will inherit my 306 when I get the 347 built for the Cobra.

    1994 V6 Convertible, 4R70W Trans. I let my mom drive this one around. She's wanted a red Mustang convertible since she was a little girl, so I felt I should oblige. It gets a lot better gas mileage than her Tahoe, anyway. I've got a 1994 Thunderbird SC setup ready to go on it (whenever I get the time).

    Lastly is a 1996 V6 Coupe, I've got a split port 3.8 with a Vortech S-trim on it now, building up the suspension and collecting parts for a built 4.2 that I'll build a TT kit for.

    I know what you're thinking: "Why is this Mustang guy on IA?"

    I'm looking for another toy.. as if I don't have enough already. I've got two good leads on an S13 and a Starion ESI-R. We'll see how it plays out.

    Either way, I look forward to hanging out. Hopefully I can show up at a meet next time in the ATL area.

    Thanks guys. I definitely have been to Winder more than a few times, Nitro. I buy salvage parts from a Mustang-only JY there.

    From, but I don't live there anymore.

    I'll move back one of these days though. Get myself a house near the beach and enjoy less traffic and better air again.

    Nice MX-5, Jenn! If I can find a good deal on a 2nd gen, I'd love to swap in a 13B.

    Here are some pics of my Cobra, before I got sideswiped by a trucker on a rain-slicked interstate.

    Sorry in advance for the sh!tty pics, they were taken with a really old camera. These were just after I got my body work done and installed my Magnaflow catback.







    After the n2o and chrome 03 cobra wheels (17x9 Front, 17x10.5 Rear):





    I'm gonna link the next few pics b/c they're huge.
    Here's a shot of my vert before I swapped the ratty tan top and wheels (you can see the blue 96 next to it):

    http://www.morrspeed.com/vert pics/100_0386.jpg

    And after the black top and 17" Bullitt wheels:
    http://www.morrspeed.com/vert pics/100_0387.jpg

    I've got pics of my blue 96 v6 and 95 v6 on my desktop, I'll probably post those later today.

    I bought my current DD last August, but I don't have any pics of it yet. I'm changing the front left caliper this weekend. If I get that done and clean the car up a little, then I'll get some pics of that, too.

    Thanks for making me feel welcome, everyone.

    Eh. I'm still in Charleston. Atlanta is fun, but I never plan on living more than 10 minutes from the beach.
