83 Turbo Coupe in Mustang Magazine April 02, 2005, 11:36:35 AM Hey guys, I was at the airport for 4 hours so i decided to buy some magazines, I got Car Craft and this other one I had never heard of. It said premier issue on the cover. Its called FORD Builder. I read through it, it was ok. Then I get to page 92 with an article called Boosted Bird, Lighter and Faster Than Your Mustang, With Half the Engine. Theres four pages with lots of pics. I thought this was cool so I just wanted to share it with u guys. I will see if i can get a pic later. Quote Selected
Here's the scanned article... Reply #1 – April 02, 2005, 02:41:37 PM I got this issue and meant to scan it a while ago. These are low quality versions so I could post them here. I have better quality if you want them. 4 scans total. This is a very nice car.Bryan Quote Selected

Re: 83 Turbo Coupe in Mustang Magazine Reply #8 – April 02, 2005, 09:05:25 PM Not too bad at all. I'd heard about the article but hadn't seen it yet. I still don't think it needs the 87-88TC hood though, but that's just me. Also, he went through all that trouble to redo the suspension..and it looks like he left the stock 88 brakes on there...I do have to point out one misprint. When they talk about KB recognizing the need for T-Bird-specific parts, that's not true...it was me Too bad I couldn't do things like I wanted to. Quote Selected

Re: 83 Turbo Coupe in Mustang Magazine Reply #10 – April 03, 2005, 07:38:16 AM great article. I would assume he did leave the stock brakes, as he said that is the next area he wants to upgrade. He also left it 4 bolt too. Wish my '85 looked like that. Quote Selected
