1982 MustangGT
I am selling a 1982 Mustang GT with 26k original miles on it. The car is in exceptional unrestored condition with original paint. It comes with a lot of original paperwork and was featured in the Fox Mustang Recognition Guide for the 1982 model year. This car has had 4 owners since new.
Exterior
The car still wears all of its original paint. The glass is all the original Carlite glass. The paint has some light stone chipping on the lower rockers. There is a 1" paint flake on the passenger side front bumper cover on top. There are a few small chipson the hood and down the sides of the car. The body is remarkably straight. I have had the body gone over by a PDR tech who specializes in classic cars. The T-Tops are in great condition. All moldings are in great condition. The rear louvers are in perfect condition. The Ford Motorsport Mudflaps are in new condition. The Marchal fog light covers are in very nice shape. The. chrometwin exhaust tip is the original tip and in great shape. All exterior lights work. The paint is very shiny. It is the original single stage paint. It still carries 100% of its factory orange peel. The rear louvers are Ford OEM NOS installed by a prior owner. They were bought with NOS hardware and are installed as original.
Interior
The interior is in near perfect condition. The highlight of the interior are the Recaro seats. A prior owner picked up a donor Recaro interior and had the seat covers and foam replaced with TMI seat covers. TMI uses the 100% original fabric for these seats and they look and feel perfect. The original seats are still mint and go with the sale of the car. The carpet, door panels, dash and radio are all perfect. There are no smells or odors in the car. The rear hatch panels are in great shape and the T-Top bags are present. The rear speakers were replaced in the original location behind the original speaker grills. Original speakers go with the car. The shifter, boot and all other console pieces are like new. The headliner has started to sag over the back seat. I have NOS headliner material to go with car.
Engine
The engine looks and runs great. It has been cleaned by hand with rags, q-tips and WD-40. The engine is stunning. Nothing in the engine bay has been painted. The plugs are new Motorcraft. The battery is Motorcraft. The wires are original and date coded. The PCV valve is the original red valve. The water pump was just replaced with a NOS OEM Ford (not Ford Racing) water pump. The original date coded radiator was recored by a local radiator shop. The thermostat was replaced by a factory 197 Motorcraft unit. The air cleaner is a K+N. The carb is a factory Motorcraft 2150 that was professionally rebuilt. I have the original carb. The battery cables are original. The cap and rotor have been replaced and I have the originals.
Drivetrain
The transmission and rear end are the original SROD and 7.5" rear with the factory slapper bars. The rear end was rebuilt with a NOS Ford Trak-Loc and 3.45 gears. The speedo gear was changed and the speedometer is spot on. The work was performed by Realspeed in Long Island, NY.
Suspension
The suspension is all original except for the rear shocks. The rear shocks are black just like the originals and feel stock. I have the original shocks. The car rides on LMR TRX wheels with 225/55/16 BFG tires. The wheels and tires are brand new. Fresh alignment. Original wheels and tires go with the car (TRX).
Undercarriage
The undercarriage is beautiful. I have removed most of the undercoating by hand with WD-40. The floor pans are stunning. Nothing has been painted and no paint removed during clean up. Car retains original exhaust front to back including twin tip and Ford embossed muffler. Car has period correct Ford Motorsport bolt on subframe connectors. I have the receipt for these when they were purchased in the early 90's
