1989 Ford Mustang GT review from North America
"As long as it runs, I will keep it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had to have the transmission rebuilt at 92,000 miles.
Headlights get full of water.
Headlights flicker when I have had my fog lights on for a while.
Fog-lights will not run just by themselves, have to have the headlights switched on also.
General comments?
Love my car even though it has left me stranded once.
Has been repainted, due to a wreck. It was a two-tone dark blue and silver. Now it is royal blue with white rally stripes. Looks brand new on outside.
Interior is still in great shape, no tears or snags, just stained.
