No disrespect!
I like 'em.
About the only coupe car I do like.
I didn't mean that there wasn't much to them.
The appearance items are low key. That is what I meant.
Lots of cars got the hood scoop, and the duals are not really a screaming indicator.
The one I looked at was gold with black rockers, hood scoop, 351 4v, FMX, 9", GT gas cap, and styled steel rims with little GT poverty caps.
I honestly don't remember it having hood pins/locks or anything like that.
It was 15 years ago though.
I worked at a quick oil change place. This old couple used to bring in all there cars regularly, one of which was the GT.
Not being hip to coupes I never really noticed it other than it was the only cherry old Stang anyone bothered to bring in for lube.
One day I got to talking to the old man and he mentioned it was a GT.
I didn't even know they made them in 69 at that time.
So I took a closer look, that close look and the old man pointing things out made it clear.
He wanted 3k for it. Said he was getting to old to worry with it. Original owner...
I tried to get him to take money down or payments, but no go.
3k was alot of money for me back then.
So I missed out.
Last I knew, he still had it. Very low miles for the age. He still changed the oils even though he rarely drove it.
That GT I missed for 3k and the 1968 Fairlane Cobra 428 SCJ (Drag Pack car) I missed for 3k are the 2 biggest regrets in my Ford life.
They both came at me around the same time, but so did a son.
Sometimes I wonder, but I suppose I wouldn't trade him for either...
