1985 Ford Mustang LX review from North America
"A great bargain for the 300 dollars"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel pump died when got, since replaced.
Replaced all spark plugs, wires, cap and rotor.
Alternator was fixed at 104000mi.
Takes a while for oil pressure to build up.
I replaced the thermostat just last month and now runs like brand new.
General comments?
This car has been really good to me and has not had any serious problems.
I think this car has a lot of pickup for its age.
It is really reliable and will last longer than many new cars.
