Sweet!Noob here. This is my ‘85 getting ready for her 40th birthday (6/8/85 purchase date). I’m the original owner, it’s been in storage since 1987. 24K miles on the car as I used it as a daily driver for two years.
She’s in the capable hands of Fox Mustang Restoration in Charlotte getting the major mechanical stuff out of the way. The interior (other than the headliner) is in great shape and still smells new : )
All tuned up. New:
Spark plugs/plug wires
Cap/Rotor
Pcv valve/screen/grommet
Fuel filter

Yes, it does. I switched from single to dual, and I have similar wheels.Got the tail pipes fixed… was ugly weld on chrome tips before. All one piece now
You have a “progress thread” going yet?Been up on stands since Thursday afternoon. We had great weather in NC (low 70s, low humidity) over the weekend so, it was a good time to be in the garage. Been raining the past two days but, temps are still nice.
Replaced the quads with OEM-level Gabriels and started detailing the underside. This was a daily driver for two years back in the 80’s. Very little surface rust, mainly on the unpainted parts (differential and crossmembers), and a coating of southern road grime.
Is cleaning up nice. Who needs dry ice blasting
Never mind! I think I’m following your thread already. Carry on.You have a “progress thread” going yet?
All of us around here love seeing this stuff! Keep it coming, and good luck!

I remembered this….. didn’t realize it was in this same thread. You should start one of your own. Plenty of us would follow along!Noob here.
