I just bought an 85 Mustang. I want to first rebuild the engine and when I get it to run like I want I will go in to other things. The problem is I have a complete lack of experience (This would be my first project.) and really only know the bare basics about car engines. I don’t know anybody that knows about cars or that could help me out. All I would have to guide me are one or two books that I picked up. And they refer to some things, im not sure what they are. Any way, what do you think? When you first started on your first car did you dive in and figure it out as you went? or is that too stupid? What did you have to guide you on your first project? Is it possible for me to do this? What Advice would you give to some one just starting on their first car?
