my name is joe and i'm from the south jersey area. been in to mopars for a long time but it was time to buy another mustang rag top.
a few weeks ago i picked up a 87 lx ragtop. automatic car with a 2.73 gear. clean original paint car. car runs very nice and is very tight. loving it already.
basic plans for it are to keep it a mild family cruiser. my 3 year old loves it. she has to help put the top up and down and loves the wind in her hair. after i finish going over the brakes and all to make sure its going to be safe i'm going to put some kind of cat back system on it.. the set up on it now is bent and mis matched so i want something nice on it. haven't decided what the heck i want. i know i don't want it loud and obnoxious but a little louder then stock would be nice too. then maybe a set of wheels. i like the stock wheels but really always liked the pony wheels.. not sure what to go with though grey, chrome or white. i was also thinking maybe some gear to give it a little more pep but not sure i really want to do that now. figured a 3.55 may be a good compromise but who knows.. for now i'm just going to enjoy cruising it this summer..
here are a few pictures of it..
also had a 90 years ago that was a lot of fun. kinda missed it and got the bug for another one so i bought this 87.
