Hello all
I'm new here and I'm the proud owner of a 1983 mustang GLX convertible 5.0 with T-5 gearbox (I think so, she has 5 gears!).
Let me introduce myself:
I live in Spain and I bought a '83 GLX convertible in England in July. The car was sold in Sacramento (CA) when new, then imported in England in 1985.
Now I'm in the process to homologate the car in Spain, hard job...
And I have a big problem: my car was yellow when new but it's now white. I don't know if the driver's door has been changed, but the certificate label is missing, and I need some information from a car like mine, mainly the gross weights: GVWR, front GAWR and rear GAWR... I can't homologate the car without this info...
I searched the web but couldn't find any information about that.
I only find info for other models, like these ones: http://www.mustanggt.org/canadiangt/canadiangt.htm
I would be really grateful if you could give me this information, or better, a picture of your certification label... You can block out your VIN number if you wish, but I hope yours starts as mine: 1FABP27F1DF.... (the "1" before the D could not be the same as it is a control digit).
I would be happy to communicate and exchange informations with other owners of this fantastic car. I have the shop books for this car, if I can help you, I'll be happy to do it.
My plan after the homologation is to contact the Ford Motor Division to ask some info about my car, and why not, to find the previous owners.
Thank you in advance.
Best regards
