Hello, New here and new to the Foxbody's. I recently acquired an 83 GT with T tops hatchback. It has around 42000 miles. I love the car, but I do not like it blacked out, so that is going to change eventually. I need some color and shine on my car. I have a 5.0 with T-5. I'll get some pics later because right now I pulled the stock valve covers and painted them ford blue and removed the paint from the ribs and Powered by Ford. Putting them back on tonight. I have plans to add some more horses under the hood. Going to install those frame rails to strengthen the unibody. A friend offered me a rear axle with disc breaks, 3.73 gears and posi for free so I'm making plans on that if everything works out. I'll be hanging around here to learn something Thanks in advance.
