Title: New guy from East Tennessee
Post by: hypostang on January 29, 2010, 10:24:36 AM
Hi guys I recently bought my 5th 83-88 bird the first 4 were Turbo Coupes This one  is a 5.0
 I had a Mark VII LSC for a couple of years as well as numerous Fox Stangs
 My true love is the classic stangs 
 But the Fox platform makes great daily drivers

Its getting pretty bad here. Had to walk to the store because I couldn't get my car up the hill to my house if I went down it......... Got any plans for the ol' bird?

It was quite neglected so I am working through all the gremlins first
 I do want a Turbo coupe hood for it eventually  maybe some different wheels

Welcome New Guy from East Tennessee! Your about 1/2 hour from where we'll be living when we move down there. If all goes well, we'll be in Lenoir City.

Shiny Side Up!

Yes , but the alternator was the least of its troubles :)
 He had started out asking 1800 I ended up giving him 400 :cool:
