1984 Ford Mustang LX review from North America
"A very reliable good running car. I'll own another one :)"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I got this car for free. It was wrecked on the left fender. I replaced that and the car started right up after sitting for a year.
Since then I've had to replace the timing chain and thermostat.
General comments?
The old ford is still running strong, in fact better than ever. The plans for the future include a built 3.8 V6 for turbocharging, dual exhaust and a front end change, to the 1989 style. I plan to get the 89 interior too.
I love junk yards for parts. I plan on keeping this one forever and having a couple more!! :)
