well after some serious problems with my lude, or shall i say ludes, i needed to do something, i was without a car to drive, so drastic time call for drastic measures. a friend of mine offered me a trade for my prelude shell. i.e. the body with inteior and suspension, no motor/trans/axels/ecu etc. he offered me his 94 Mustang GT 5.0 and some cash for the car, so after a week of driving the stang, and sme serious thought, i decided to go for it. i have not left the prelude world yet completely, i still have my 93 Si, which will soon have my built H22 in it.

cliffs notes: i traded this car,
with no motor for this car, with a 5.0 HO, an takind this motor,
and putting it in this car

 

the mustang looks cool just get the stock hood from him

 

he might like the hood, it almost matches his old one. j/k. I guess not a bad trade, im not a big fan of that body style for the stangs, im hoping they get better in '05. But at least you got something that is easily upgraded for some real power

I bet some one else is saying the same thing about the prelude's hood. "cool car just get the stock hood."

 

I dont know why.... but im diggin the hood on the 'stang.

 

to the Fobra (that hood has yet to grow on me )

to the H22 in the SI

now lets just hope you dont have the same alternator problems with that SFP mani.

 

STOP CALLING IT A FOBRA YOU JACKASS!!!!!!!!!

 

So how long is it going to be, before you BLOW the mustangs engine UP???

not gonna push it until i got something else to drive, hehehe

 

If all you gave him was a shell of a car I'd say you got the better end of the deal.

 

why a 5.0 instead of a 4.6?

Actually i think if ya put the motor in the 5th gen and sold it you woulda done better :/

the 302 is a potential a better engine performance wise, and reliability wise, most people says its the best engine Ford has produced

now as for the Lude, if i had taken the time to fix the 5th gen so i could sell it, i would STILL be without a car to drive

o man, i cant wait, its got an eibach prokit and tokico illuminas, it sticks SOOOOO freakin good, i wanna get it out and see how well it compares to other stangs

 

the imagestation pics aren't showing for me.

edit: nevermind, finally worked.

 

not a bad deal i suppose. owe any money on the prelude? i thought about getting a 5.0 or a lt1 but started looking at the mods i could do and decided to get my truck instead, otherwise i'd be in a real money pit..but 8mpg toy owns me right now.

 

Not a big fan of mustangs, but i respect them for what they are...givin they aren't v6 ones with dual pipes wanabe v8. I know the stang is faster, but which would you prefer? Stang or lude?

 

yea, i still technically owe on the lude, but my dad's company makes the payments as part of my salary, so i dont actually have to make payment anymore

the new owner of the car is a member on this board, so you will still be seeing it around

 

i guess the lude is mine then

THE STOCK HOOD DOESNT EXIST.......ya its a 5.0 car, and i spent some cash on the suspension.....

I wanted a lude for some time....and when i pick it up, there will be 3 hondas in my driveway...the lude, my 96 gsr sedan(for sale) and my 96 cbr6 f3

Its a dope stang...and im kinda sorry to see it go...but i will build another, but for now i still love hondas

 

eh, i loved the 5th gen, but ya gotta do what ya gotta do

 

the stang is no slouch. personally not my style of car, but i respect it.

 

*cough* blower *cough*
