Hey everyone! Have been away from mustangs for a little while but I'm just getting back into it! Found a 1987 T-top 20 minutes away from me rushed over and bought it last weekend. Great car the guy "said" he was the second owner and the odometer shows 77K but who really knows? Body is straight, doorpins are not sagging, normal rust issues around the hatch, and interior is unfortunetly red but not beat to hell, heck even the ashtray cover still works!
Guy before me put full headers and some off brand that said they were just like flowmasters but sound kinda ricey when you really get on them on the car, and a cold air kit but other than that the car seems bone stock. I do think that the Cold air is running havoc with the Speed density set up from what I have read here and talked to people about. Car doesn't want to run at idle unless you give it some gas and surges slightly still even after it calms down. Wondering if it would be worth the effort to switch it to Mass Air, take of the Intake, or just deal with it...
Anyways, glad to be part of the mustang club again hoping to have a lot of fun with this car along the way! I had another 87 t-top but it was beat to hell rusting away beneath me and I didn't have the time or experience to deal with it. This one isn't a daily driver and I have some time to fiddle with it.
