Default RE: lets hear your car history

Did you buy it like that? How much did you pay?
10k out the door, and it came like that.

as for the rims 17x8s in the front and 18x10s in the back. i know the rears have 285s but i think theres 245s up front, ill get the specs later. not to sure on the suspension work, nothing suspension wise is stock, its all pretty much after market.

the 442 has a 77 bandit edition 403 toped with 307 heads ( some people say it cant be done but it can, just drill out the head bolt holes with a press) its a good runner and has enough torque to shake the car severly at a stop light and if you look under the hood the motor looks like a stock 307 ho.

I was going to buy a 88 cavalier convt. I liked the digital dash and the 2 color ground effects. My buddies dawged me about it.

THen I was going to but a trans am 81 bandit edition, but dude wanted 10K and it had a header leak....

Then i was going to buy a C4 (80's) corvette, but didnt like that bec it was a 2 seater, and was like 5k

So I decided on the mustang convt.

Almost bought an 85, but missed it. Bought my current 87 in 2004.

Bought it off of ebay. Previous owner said it was stolen, recovered, then sold at auction.

Kind of a cool past. Did an carfax report.

The car was built Mar 30, 1987, so that is pretty later in the model year (right?)

has been in michigan for its whole life. First 2-3 owners seemed to take good care of it. No rust.

Then a few ppl beat the hell out of it in the last 5 years. Its sad.

Last owner r and r ed it. And i am too.
