Used 1983 Ford Mustang GT Coupe RWD for Sale near Flanders, NJ

in 1983 ford released the 5.0 for the first time since the mid 70s they came stock in the mustang gt. at 180 horse it could have had more to offer but to the weight ratio of the car its a good balance, and let me tell you with the 5 speed standard its a quick car. handling is good but not outstanding tires and underbody sway bars and other customs have been added to make high speed handling much better. other than that it is completely stock, down to the original paint job and radio.it is a strong solid car that has needed very few repairs that were pretty easy to fix.beautiful inside and out .a true blast to drive

this car had a turbo engine as well so it really moved, especially over Logans Pass. 5 speed standard and hatchback made for a perfect combination of speed and function. gas mileage depended on how many races you had and it was a riot to drive!

Cost of ownership is very affordable. Very fun to drive. The performance is very good for a bone stock car. All it has is a new exhaust which sounds sick. The car is obviously very fun to drive being it a 5-speed.

So, it's a fox body stang, with the 302, (non roller, two piece rear main, missed it by a month {11/82 build date}) and the hilariously small SROD 4-speed. It runs, it drives (barely) and it's rollin' on stock 14s. :: sigh :: She's got a ways to go still :)

I bought this car as a fix up project for my son and I to work on. Neither of us know much about cars so we thought we would learn together. It needs the front and rear bumper replaced,a new soft top and paint job. It runs well and is fun to drive. Any tips on how to improve performance would be welcome.
