Is this a good car?

[Seanmay1]

Ok, im new here, but looking to get some info, im supposed to be going to buy a 86 GT tomorrow for 2500, body and paint are in good shape, interior needs a little but its no big deal, it has a 302 bored 30 over 24 lb injectors, mild street cam, headers,msd coil and 6al box,mass air flow conversion, cold air intake, 65mm throttle body new t-5 transmission with king cobra clutch kit short throw shifter new tires and brakes on all 4 wheels new paint 373 richmond gear also has off road h pipe with 2 chamber flowmasters

is this a good combo on the 302? im thinking this is going to be a decent ride, and what else should i add to it once i get it because the way i am i never stop adding things or working on my cars

Looks good if you like the 4 eyes! how much ? how many miles ? looks ok from the pics!

 

[Seanmay1]

its an 86, $2500 he was asking 3500 though, forgot to ask about how many miles, only thing that i will have to fix is the dipstick, he said it wasn't seated right and leaks a little right there, but thats an easy fix so im not worried about that.

other than the things already on the car what would be the next thing i should do without spending 3k on a supercharger to get more power i was thinking maybe a intake and a little later a set of heads

 

[fastford91]

intakes and heads!!! you got it! the price seems ok to! id say go for it! if its the car you want! James

 

[LaserSVT]

Good price for a clean ride with some good mods, I say get it

 

[Seanmay1]

yes its the one i like, i was actually looking for a coupe but couldn't fine one close that was worth a damn, i was about to drive 4 hours to get the coupe i had found, but that guy told me he would take 2500

what intake/head combo works good together

 

[fastford91]

head and intake combos! wow your going to get all kinds of answers on that one! i have all edelbrock on mine and like it! but to each there own!

 

[Seanmay1]

yea i know i will get a lot, but im new to fords, i have always dealt with oldsmobiles, so this will be a big learning experience to me, and after doing some research online i dont see why i didn't come to ford a long time ago

 

[fastford91]

COOL! welcome aboard brother!!!

Oh boy here come the combo replies........ I'm outta here before I get hit with something. By the way nice first Mustang congrats, four eyes rule no matter what certain Stangers with EURO TAILS say!!!!!!!!!!LOL

 

[Seanmay1]

Yea i like the 4 eyes better, i think the front ends on the 86 GT are the best looking front ends of all the fox bodies

As for the OP. Lots of combos and lots of power to be had. Congrats on your purchase. I love the four eye cars.

 

[Seanmay1]

Nevermind the mods. Mileage should have been the first thing you asked.

 

[Seanmay1]

has 97K on the car and 15k since the motor was rebuilt

 

[FrankenStang]

has 97K on the car and 15k since the motor was rebuilt

That's pretty low for an '86. I think.

 

[Mustang5L5]

That is low. Have you carfaxed the VIN to make sure it's not 197K?
