new paint looks more like a nice factory color. But I really like orange cars.

i picked this era because it was EFI and still used the pushrod V8 my dad u to wirk on old school v8 when i was small so after he passed away when i was 11 i thought i would learn what i could by doing all my work myself and i built my first mustang a 90 look just like this one but black all on my own and must admit like all beginers i made some mistakes so now with this one i have a clean sheet of paper to work with and its comming along very well i would say right now the motor is making about 275 at the flywheels i havnt dynoed it cause as far as i know there isnt one here but i have my supercharger im my garage that needs to go on i had it from my previeose mustang

i personally think that orange is too much of a "look at me" color ... not that "look at me" is bad, but it really attracts unwanted attention, especially from theives and cops.
