1981 Ford Mustang Reviews, Pricing & Specs
Write a review
The 1981 Ford Mustang retained the same look as its fellow third generation Mustangs, but featured fewer engine choices. The 2.8-liter V6 was no longer an option. However, the 3.3-liter V6 was now rated at 91 horsepower.
Some of the aftermarket additions included installing a replica T-top from the late 70's.

Handling is terrible but what do you expect from an old ass mustang. Acceleration aint bad for a straight six motor. Brakes work like a charm after you replace the entire set-up. Alot more power if you swap from the stock single barrel to the holley two barrel.Apr 14, 2008

This was my second Mustang, and it was the only one worth taking a picture of. I enjoyed driving it around, but the weak 255 ci V8 mated with the 3 speed auto was not exactly fast! It looked the part though. It cost me too much to own while attending high school.Jan 13, 2008
