Howdy all,
New guy that just picked up my first four eye, an '83 GT 5.0 5 speed hatchback T-Top. It's a project car, but does run great and has a solid body. Plan is to semi-restore and be a driver.
It's as close to the car my late father had and loved when I was a kid, but I haven't been able to find. I have looked off and on for a while for an exact candidate, but found that it's just a rare car, if not one of a kind. He special ordered it; '83 GT 5.0, medium yellow, walnut interior, notchback, t-tops, no AC (didn't want to lose any power), and manual windows. He sold the car around 1988 after starting his own business when things got tight, and it was the last thing to go. I remember him telling us kids on the last ride in it that he "loved it like a step kid".
Anyhow, this car brings back those memories and I'll be painting it medium yellow and matching as many aspects of that car as I reasonably can.
