Description for Ford XR4TI 1986

Here we have a good driver XR4TI. The car has 40K currently on the odometer. I drive it to work at least once a week. The car is not perfect, but in good shape with good parts installed. Here is the list of the bad.
Bad:
Pass door and fender was damaged prior to my ownership
Paint is not in great shape, sections faded. Car was repainted at one time
Has electrical issue with fuel pump relay. Currently by-passed and fused.
Has small dent on the hatch. This can be fixed with paintless dent repair.
Dash has a crack
Tires rub under hard dip
Exhaust has a few holes(original)
Drivers door panel pocket is broken
The interior was changed prior to my ownership. Was originally leather, now cloth
Spring pops due to massaging the spring perch for the SVT wheels
5th gear does not engage. Shifts fine 1-4th. This happened after fluid change. Detent needs to be put back in place.
