Description for Ford Mustang 1982

For sale is my 1982 Mustang GT. This car is an original black on black GT......even the buck tag is still in place........ I saved it from becoming scrap mainly because of its virtually rust free body.......This car has been repowered with all the driveline components from a 1991 5.0 mustang lx. Full body electrical harness, interior and all suspension have also been swapped. Suspension has been upgraded with BBK Springs, 87 spindles and 5 lug conversion using NOS Ford front rotors. Wheels are American Muscle 17x9 up front, and 18x9 rear.
The drivetrain consists of the Fuel Injected 5.0 with Mass Air. New clutch, pressure plate, throw out bearing, a ford Motorsport adjustable clutch cable. 5 speed transmission, stock shifter, and the 8.8 posi rear. Also has off road H-pipe, Flowmasters and full exhaust.
All fuel system and brake components, including the power brake, master cylinder and proportioning valve from the 91 were swapped to the 82 Body.
The body is practically rust free, no collision damage or rust to the strut towers or frame rails. Fenders doors and quarter panels are straight and solid, hood is good and comes with a factory pace car hood scoop. Floors are solid, previous owner had sub-frame connectors professionally installed, aside from that there was a small repair had been made using donor floor from 91.
All trim is present with the exception of the rubber body side molding (which is now thankfully reproduced), all glass is good. T Tops are complete and in good condition......and please don't bother me with"do the t tops leak"......at some point new or old all t tops leak so assume that 35 year old seals will leak.....This car sits in my garage until the new owner arrives and I'm not standing outside with a garden hose in December to test out the seals.
Car does run, drive and stop......I would however trailer it to your final destination as it has not had any shakedown driving.
I have a bunch of pictures from the day I got it home, from during the reassembly and what you see now.......it still needs final finishing and a good shake down but you can finish it your way and have a fast, reliable, fuel injected 4 eye 82 Mustang GT that has the heart and performance of the later 5.0 LX

Clean transferable title...........Can provide pictures of any areas that may concern you.
This car has a very low reserve. you could not purchase another solid 82 GT, and pay a shop to do this conversion for what my reserve is set at. I am not thrilled about selling this car but I have redirected my focus and do not want this car to sit around. I will regret selling this car the minute the seasons change.
Bid to own, buyer responsible for all shipping costs..........will assist with loading
