I've heard the "I want to improve X Y and Z" side of things before, but I'm definitely all about originality. However, like Bill said, I can see where the less-desirable car that's already been modded fits in. At least it's still in existence, and not being parted or junked.

I think our mission statement here is pretty clear...and it's definitely not about hot-rodding or tubbing out perfectly restorable SSPs.

Just my opinion!!
I think you need to save those comments for another type of site !

all the comments up to yours where about preserving the ssp original !

i think if u dont like my comment then u need not quote it!!! i was refering too modding mine but not so much to where its so difficult to go back orginal. if u want to keep yours stock thats fine. as far as saving saving my comments for another site i will say what i want here or on any other site. this special service mustang.net not RESTORATION TO ORIGINAL SSP SPECS.NET is it?!?!?!?


here is a 88 flordia patrol car ooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhh nooooooooo............... its modded and on a drag strip????? that must be a sin

[ssp91ssp]

As far as the sin part ... on this site it actually is a sin !!!
Again , good luck with your car .

It's not a big deal, Hec. I think it's a good discussion.

93ssp, you are free to share your opinion, but don't get upset when the majority here do not agree with it. As for your comment in the post that Jim deleted, membership and posting here is a privilege, not a right. You wont have a problem as long you abide by the guidelines.

its not a race car... its a daily driver. i'm sorry to everyone else for how this is going as well for some people making you think you have to restore your car. its a car hobby... to each his own.

i can fully appreciate a restored or original ssp car. but its not what im doing to my car. if u think i should restore my car please tell me what it is??? i know nothing about it, nor does anyone else... i searched everywhere and cant find anything about it

You do know that the cowl hood won't make it any faster, right?

I would recommend that you keep as many of the original parts as possible, and perhaps spray the original hood at the same time that you add the cowl for the repaint. Hopefully you will be able to turn up more info about your car, which may encourage you to keep future mods limited to those that aren't too hard to "un-do", should you or a subsequent owner (we can't live forever ya know!) decide to return it to stock at a later time.

Sorry guys I didn't mean to start a battle here... I was only considering the brake swap but I sill wanted the stock 10 hole wheels... Yes Im want to have the extra set painted black... I am returning everything back to stock.. I have already removed the "X" pipe and placed the stock type mufflers bac on it. I have the original air filter assembly allthough I may sneak a K&N filter in it.. I am going to instal the original headers back in it.... I will keep the original brakes on it... So it will just be the black wheels...

By the way there is a '93 LX coupe on Ebay that the seller is stating that it is original and it has 4 wheel disk brakes on it from the factory...
