122743, For the first time since 2004...
Posted by cougar694u, Aug-04-06 07:34 PM
My (2nd) 2gnt started. I had the typical first start issues, but once they were fixed, it started and ran for 30 minutes with zero problems. Changed the oil and hit the streets where I found 2 minor problems:

1) the stock mustang GT rims & tires rub on the rear when hitting bumps on the Tokico's lowered at about 1" to 1.5".

2) the mullet I got the car from used a zip tie on the lower heater hose on the firewall. No biggie, just drips, I'll fix that tomorrow.

That's all.

No, the one in the sig was my first 2gnt. This is the one I bought from bearkat that sucked a valve and completely trashed the motor. He started to part it out, then stopped and I bought it from him.

Basically, I picked up the pieces from someone else. Sucked, but it was nice to drive it, so nice.
