So whats up guys, dont know if this is the right forum but this is my 3rd post :lol:

Here is my baby, a 1986 GT Hatchback with a T-5, Its been in my family since 86 and the only mods are the new headlights (has all four now :P), a new windshield(not really a mod but still.. ), an Optima battery and a Ford Racing clutch, and a true straight pipe exhaust(and the smog pumps is gone) I also have the tail lights and still havent put them on lol, in fact I still have the original spark plug wires :O . and I took off the hub caps because I live in a shady neighborhood. My dad had a little fender bender in the front with a Jeeps rear end though, and the hood popped open going the freeway at 75 mph and a rock hit the drivers side mirror lol. yep lotsa work ahead of me.

EDIT: Forgot to mention a Steeda Adjustable clutch cable and quadrent is also installed

Not too shabby.

Clean her up, looks like it would only take a few hours and very little cash. Get some new paint and the exterior will look as good as new.

I'd get the paint job but first I gotta straighten the drivers side, everything is pushed back about 1/2in
