Thread: My '80 Mustang

    Default My '80 Mustang

    <img src="http://vb.foureyedpride.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=118896&amp;stc=1" attachmentid="118896" alt="" id="vbattach_118896" class="previewthumb">I had a few minutes today to get the car uncovered and snap a few pics to send to a body shop that might be working on the car, depending on the price they throw at me. It was cold and windy, so I had it uncovered long enough to get some exterior shots, then covered it back up. It doesn't look tremendously different from when I owned it two years ago. It wasn't abused by the last owner, but perhaps it was somewhat neglected. It was left outside uncovered and that paint has dulled out on it somewhat. There are enough issues with the paint that I feel like it really needs to be painted. The passenger side rocker panel molding got dented but I found a nice used one to replace it. Some of the striping chipped off, but it's all going to be removed when it gets painted, so no big deal there. The inside mirror fell off, so I'm just waiting for a warm enough day to glue it back on. I guess the thing that bothers me the most is the plastic center of my cool three spoke steering wheel now has a big crack in it and I need to find a replacement for it. I've been looking for another one like it, but so far, it has eluded me. I'm looking forward to working on it and hoping for better weather soon.

    Very nice. Looks naked though without a rear spoiler. My first mustang was a 1983 GL without a rear spoiler. It was nice that the hatch wasn't rotted because of water leaking in through the spoiler holes, but I had to add a spoiler, it just had to be done.
