Welcome. I have an 85 Tbird myself. Lots of great, knowledgeable guys on this site. You will soon find that “restoration “ parts are not available for these cars so far as body and interior. Searching and patience. Check out the site Cool Cats….. Lots of great info there so far as modding.
Again Welcome and post more pictures when you can.

Welcome to FEP.. Nice car to start with, especially being Grandpa's car... My parents had an 85 blue limited edition Thunder Chicken when i was a teenager. I wish they still had it...

Thanks for the welcomes. I'm actually pretty lucky as the interior in this thing is spotless. It just needs a little conditioner for the leather seats which are a little dry, but not cracked. I'm also really lucky that my grandpa had the foresight to buy the body parts it needs before he parked it (a RF fender and door). Right now my focus is on the mechanical stuff. I'm in the process of redoing the fuel system right now. The engine turns, but both the pumps are shot and the tank was full rust and rotten gas... My first goal is to get it running. I was actually checking out Cool Cats to figure out if I had the digital dash or not before I bought my fuel sending unit. I have a real soft spot for the old four-eyed foxes. In addition to this thunder chicken, my dad also had a black '84 Mustang GT when I was a little kid.
