My 1985 Mustang GT being reborn

[Goldenpony]

I am having my 1985 Mustang GT 5 spd. restored by Bruce Gould. I bought this car brand new in late 1984.
I picked up a rust free hood, hatch & a set of Florida doors. The roof (with an after market sun roof stupidly added by yours truly) caused a lot of rust to the roof, so Bruce is fitting my baby with a donor roof sans sunroof along with a new headliner. The car will be returned to it's OE color (silver w/blk stripes). Years ago I had it painted Ford Lt. Oxford gray. She will be getting all new weather stripping and new OE color carpet. I am considering having a new windshield put in because the old one is badly sand blasted.

When I get "The Old Gray Mare" back, I'll post some pics. Long live the old Fox bodies. :cool2:

Love the 85,86 Fox. Guess thats because it was the coveted mustang to have when I was 21 and couldn't afford one or the insurance or both at the time. Post up some pics in the media section when you get it back from resto.

I was lucky to see this car in person a few months back.. I love a modified car but very glad you are bringing the 4eyed beauty back to original condition.. We proved that no matter the generation you come from that a car guy is a car guy... What started as a simple purchase of a dash plate turned into a McDonalds breakfast and talking cars for an hour...

we will be here waiting for some pictures..:popcorn:

The restoration of my Pony is going well. Bruce has replaced the roof that was a mess because of rust. He has the doors primed and fit (donor doors). The whole car has been block sanded and has a lot of primer on it. He expects to get some paint on it soon. Getting excited now. :)
