Ok I've had this 86 GT for about a month or two. I bought it from my GF's cousin for $1200. It had a few problems when I got it. The two biggest being the T5 going out and the rear makes a clicking noise below 15 mph when stopping. The speakers in the car didn't work, the A/C and heat don't work and the driver window wouldn't roll up. On a positive note it has 3.73 gears and a Trac-Lok or whatever it is called when it leaves two black marks, a brand new clutch, pressure plate, throwout bearing and clutch quadrant.
So far I ordered all new dew wipes and run channels, sunvisors, Rockford Fosgate speakers front and rear, power window motor, almost $50 in random trim screws and interior pieces...... oh and this for $600:
It pumps fuel but doesn't want to start. Almost starts until I release the key. I just bought it for the rims and the T5. So far I found it has the following aftermarket stuff:
15x8 Enkei rims
Hurst short throw
Mac shorties
Off road H pipe
2.5" cat back with Flowmaster but no tails
I'll pull what I need/want and get rid of the rest. Not sure if it will be parted out or a full roller. Have to see how I feel about it after pulling what I want. I may pull the 5.0 out of the donor and build a 347 stroker if funds permit. I also need to check out the rear to see if it has better gears and a trac-lok. I'm hoping for 4.10's.
Anyway how did I do?
Were these two cars worth $1800? Both have clear titles and rust free.
