I have an 89 gt and as soon as I hit the key I loose all power. It won't start...nothing!! I need to get it started because I have to sell it. I am letting it go real cheap. Anyone interested or can help me, Please let me know. Thanks.

The battery is probably discharged and/or a ground is deficient.

I agree.
Replace both the battery wires.

I would have to say you probably have a loose or corroded ground. I would also check the battery like recommended above.
