Default Just Bought My First GT

I just bought my first GT. It's a 84 model that is all there for a roller (no engine and T5)
Here is a link too many pictures to post.

Congrats, now start cataloging everything as you take it apart! All the glass being intact is a good sign for the interior.

Congrats, lots of possibilities there. Check the floor pans, they had a tendency to crack underneath the front seats around the rear mounting bolts.

Right now the plan is simple, when I get it home a good cleaning inside and out. Repair what I can, then save for the engine,trans, so I can get it running and driving. I can work on interior and body after it is running. I really am looking forward to getting my GT.
