Description of 1982 Ford Mustang GT

I have run out of money to finish this car. I will list below Pro's and Con's about this vehicle. Please, Please, Please come to look at it or have someone else look it over and inspect it. E-Bays buyer protection insurance only covers vehicles 10 years old or newer. It is also advisable to buy shipping insurance or any other offered insurance to protect your purchase. I only tell you this because I was deceived when purchasing this car. I have put over 10,000 in this car since I Purchased it and received it on February 24. I had all the work done on the car and drivetrain by Rollins Automotive in Gainesville Florida. I have all the receipts to back up what I spent. I will be as honest as I can so you know exactly what you are buying. I have taken photo's of every visible flaw on the body and one wheel that has a slight crease in it. The body has slight traces of rust underneath it. The rust on the passenger wheel well is because the car was damaged in shipping and when I took it to a garage it sat outside for a month. The trunk looks good inside as well as the door wells and hinges. The bottom of the doors look good also. This is where to look first when buying a Fox Body. The car has 1979 mustang doors on it. The lower air dam damage also happened in shipping supposedly? The car was originally silver and was painted dark grey metallic. The drivers side of the car looks great except for a touched up chip on the right edge of the door. There is also a small crack in paint on the A Pillar where it meets the top of the car. The carpeting looks good on the floor except for small holes in front of the back seat and behind the back seat where a Roll Bar used to be. It was ground off. I would definitely say this car was drag raced in its lifetime. It has a 4:10 gear ratio in the differential. I don't know if the posi-traction works or not. I am 76 years old and I bought this car to enter car shows. To old for racing! The emergency brake does not work and the four wheel disc brakes require hard pedal pressure as there is no power brakes. No AC. All the wheels have been converted to 5 lug. The disc brakes and 8.8 inch differential are from a 93 SVT as I am told by the previous owner.
