The T Top 4eye I Didn't Want But I Had To

[GroverDill]

So I went to " look " at this thing this morning, cash in hand. The moment I saw it I knew I was going to buy it, but I tried to play it cool. Whatever the guy selling it was super cool had a sweet 87LX 5.0 he had owned since new ( thanks mom and pop! )

So the car is NOT perfect and the photos give it a little more than pop than it has in real life, this is by no means to say the car is not in excellent condition just the camera gives it a touch more.

These pictures were taken as soon as I got it home, not washed, not cleaned, not vacuumed just as it sits.

So as I I said, I HAD TO!

And in its new home

The Sellers 87 LX, super clean

And his bitchin Wagon! I really liked the wagon.

Damn. Nice pickup. I would have jumped on that too.

That wagon rocks!

I know what you mean about going to look. I just sold my 2011 GT and bought the Charger in September, and "went to look" at the '89 GT I now own. The first time I was there I even told them, "Just looking, cant afford it even if I wanted to... just bought that Charger." And then a week later it was in my garage. Looks pretty nice though, nice find. I assume you will leave it remotely stock, being as I have heard you say a few times your car is kinda too much?

Nice bro! I can't wait to see that car in person.

 

[All Stock93]

Nice cars. The wagon is badass

 

[Mustang5L5]

So it's an '85? Let's see the motor

And his ****in Wagon! I really liked the wagon.

The wagon needs wood grain.

The 4i is most excellent!

PLEASE leave that car as is. It is beautiful.

Excellent! We need some pictures of the engine and the rest of the car up on that nice lift of yours.

 

[GroverDill]

Lol The engine is stock as hell and just as dirty.

No way, 5 lug swap is mandatory on ALL foxbody's

 

[FoxMustangLvr]

That's my weakness right there with the glass tops removed I'm so jealous bro!

You gotta think, though, when was the last time any of us saw a stock, let alone '85 GT stock engine bay?

 

[NIKwoaC]

I remember when my drivers seat didn't havea tear in it.

Nice score man!

It's been a while for sure. I do have an 84-85 air cleaner lid hanging on the wall in my garage from the '85 GT t-top I parted out a loooong time ago. Stupid..i know, but the car was in rough shape. But now I really have the itch for a T-topped 85-86.


That car is screaming for a set of clean, mint, OEM 10-holes, and then restoring it back to original.

Are the moldings and mirrors painted? Or just faded?

 

[GroverDill]

They are painted and I dont like it much, but I doubt I will do anything about it.

 

[QuietOne]

I'm so glad you got this car!

 

[A5literMan]

I'd probably lower it a little but after that...clean stock minor resto projects is all I'd concentrate on.

5 lugs are awesome but I wouldn't bother with that. Love that car. I wish I had waited for a t top.

Junkyard run this weekend, beginning to gather 5 lug parts...
