    People complain about the Fox body style - I love it. A very important generation in the evolution of America's favorite pony car. The only Mustang i didn't like was the Mustang II in the early seventies. This 85 GT is beautiful. Nice job!

    I had a black convertible 85 GT Mustang. Awesome car. I wish I had never sold it.

    Nice mustang , I had a 92 , they runs nice with msd 6al box once u try it u won't run without it again , frame connectors also firms up chassis and make it go straight when launch, I also put in king cobra stage 2 clutch which soften up the clutch pedal and had better grip ,always use dealer throw out bearings never use aftermarket.

      That's really cool! ;) I miss this one! I swapped it for a 2001 Bullitt several years ago, which I still have. These "4-eye" GT's are becoming harder and harder to find.

      @@edwardprete I actually have a "True Blue" Bullitt. Yes the green is more desirable/recognizable but the blue was super limited. I'm in Indiana. The CA plate was a reproduction from "Back to the Future"......OUTATIME was on the DeLorean! ;) ...also from 1985.

    Very nice. I bought an 85 brand new when I was much younger. I liked the look of the stock rims. Only two mods I made at the time: I replaced that hideous, skinny cruise control steering wheel with the stock three spoke wheel with the oval design. I believe Ford at the time was obsessed with ovals as they were prominent in the Taurus. Must have been an homage to the Ford logo. I also I replaced the stock stationary antenna with an auto up/down electric one. Enjoy!

    • @CoffeeDrinker71
      @CoffeeDrinker71  Před rokem

      Very cool! Yeah, I remember that Ford oval shape was everywhere in the styling especially in the early 90's.

    Please help me do you know where the heater core is on the 85 I don't want to take the dash off if mine to find out it'd under the passenger somewhere

      @CoffeeDrinker71  Před rokem

      I'm pretty sure you're going to have to dig under the dash....I'm not 100% sure. The entire time that I owned this Fox, the heater core had been bypassed....and I never got around to replacing it.

      No they used the 4 lug wheels on every model. I can’t remember what year they switched over completely…possibly in 94?
