So I was online browsing like every hour of every day and I came across an ad for a 85 GT T-Top. The real kicker was listed for $500! Wasn't expecting much for that price. From the time he posted the ad 10pm to 11pm I was on my way home with title in hand. I hesitate on buying any car in the dark, but giving the situation I wasn't going to let this pass me buy. Turns out I know his old man down the road from my house and he has 7-9 mustangs littered across his property at any giving time. Anyways just got it trailered home this freezing morning with help from my buddy Ed. Body is straight, int needs good cleaning, the 7.5 had already been swapped w/8.8, straight pipes, and little things here and there aftermarket. The only down side is the fuel pump/tank needs to be replaced. The hardwork was already done, he pulled it but never completed it cause his wife got preggo. And it needs a battery. I plan on swapping the cfi to carb. $500 not a bad price for a complete 85 GT T-Top.. and yes I do plan on keep the aod until I can afford a PA Perf Super St AOD. My Lx is t5 with drag springs, so an aod would be nice.
