So I recently picked up this little mustang. It's a 5.0 H.O. motor with cfi and an AOD.
My mom works at a storage facility and got to bsing with a customer who paying his bill. He told her that he wanted to get his unit cleaned out and mentioned he had an old Mustang parked in there. She told him I might be interested and put me in contact with him. Turns out, he's a lawyer from San Francisco and had recieved the car as payment from a client in the late 80s or early 90s. He didn't need the car and put it in storage in 1991. (My mom checked the records of how long he had this unit) He removed the battery after driving it in and there it sat for the past 28 years.
The car has 37,5xx original miles. Original paint, convertible top and even the original TRX rims with some 30 year old Michelin TRX's with no cracks and still holding air.
It's not perfect but is in great original condition. I've been going through it trying to get it running again. I haven't got a lot of time to work on it but have been making some steady progress. If all goes well, I may have time this next weekend and hopefully get her fired up.
Thanks for all the great info available here. It has been instrumental to my success thus far. Thanks again and hope you all enjoy the pics.
