    Default My 1980 Tu Tone Mustang Turbo Coupe

    Patients finally payed off. Got my Turbo Tu-Tone coupe from California. Seller was great to deal with. was an old show car from late 80s and early 90s. Was up graded to an 87 EFI Turbo 5spd from Turbo coupe. All carb turbo parts where included. Can’t wait to clean it up and drive away.Name:  876A96A8-0B12-43E1-B750-008AC2D7F4D9.jpg

    The SSP car belongs to my buddy. Those are steel 15 “rims with SSP center caps. I will be going with the 16” TRX wheels or Rodlites.

    Sharp. Prime shape at 10 year mark.
    Ford colors matching all the way.
    Good idea for a car show. Have the same fender cover.

    The body is still clean just some scratches and moldings are starting to peel. I have paper work for three turbo replacements. Then the second owner pulled the motor and tranny and it never went back in. Next owner installed a 87 turbo coupe drivetrain. Thats the way I have it now. I do have the original head, turbo ,intake and exhaust manifold.

    Looks really great, especially with TRX wheels!

    Is that the factory paint and stripe package?

    Thank you. Outside no changes. Eventually it will get a FMIC, 3” exhaust and the Motorsport valve cover. Paint and stripes are original.
