Just my opinion, but unless you are in love with the 94 and up style, I would keep plugging away at what you have. I'd say it seems pretty decent for what you've done. And don't sell anything because you are getting married. It's too hard to get another later!!!

I've been thinking about selling it lately... but it's paid for and owes me nothing. Luckily I've set myself up with 3 potential fun cars if anything goes south, and seeing how prices friggin sky rocketed(in my opinion) this year with fun cars, I'll fix the rust and hold on to it.
 
Minor Update.

I drive this to work, almost every day. The Stang managed to get me stranded at work while no a job, my fiance helped me pull start it :) to get it home. It sounded like the starter was spinning and not engaging. I put longer bolts in starter and this seemed to fix my issue on Saturday. Sunday, I go to my bank(30minutes away) and I get the same issue, after it had worked all day on Saturday. My brother had not left for the drag strip so he was able to get me pulled started. A simple conversation of "want to ride with me to the drag strip?" turned into, "30minutes to change the starter and we both can go". ONCE AGAIN the lady at Advance Auto had gotten me the wrong one, we put the starter in anyways, it didn't work because it had solenoid on it, I have a fender mount. We got the proper one, and I got money back :), and we went to the drag strip.

12.8@108 with a low 1.80 60ft all day. Microsquirt is here on the kitchen counter waiting to be installed :).
I've got 3-4 in car video, of my brother waxing my ass. They'll be up shortly.
 
I went to the track today, only made 1 pass. I have a March Alternator Bracket Kit, the first pass I broke a grade8 bolt for the belt tension and ran a personal best again.
12.78 @ 109mph with a 1.86 60ft.
I'll grab pictures of how we rigged it to get home, but I wasn't too upset being I ran my best on the first pass. The car hooked, bogged and bounced then it was smooth from there. I get 1 more weekend to grab a good 60ft and a low 12's.. hopefully lol!
 
Congratulations on the sub 13 sec ET!! I dig the zip ties on the alternator, those things have saved everyone's ass at one point or another.

Thank you!!!
I think I am going to have a stockpile of zip ties now...

I found a missing bolt in the power steering bracket, I think this may have stressed my belt tensioner and it let go.
 
Installed MS today, I have to order a MAP sensor to get it to work. This is a huge learning curve for me, luckily it's just junk lol!

I've recently bought a clean 1989 Mustang GT roller, here is my new project thread.

My father is buying this Blue Mustang from me, he has guys at work that are talking up their hemi trucks and he wants something besides a 2003 Yamaha Vmax.
The best I could pull off with my bad luck on this was 12.78 @ 109mph with a 1.86 60ft(first and last pass of the season). That was a 97 Explorer gt40p headed 302, f303 cam, trickflow track heat, longtubes/xpipe, cheap rear suspension and 4.10 gears with slicks.
