Me and my Dad, (I'm too young to drive) are taking the 'stang to a car show this morning. I would tell you the name, but he doesn't know. Just meeting his friends at a deli and then going to the car show. If you see a '82 stang driving down the highway with 2 other cars that are beautiful, that's probably us, and my Dad's friends (In the beautiful cars). Apparently, it's just a classic stock car show. I'll probably dump later.

Love the louvers. There is a lot of hate for the louvers on the 80's "'stangs" but one day you will see me in a white drop top five-oh blasting Vanilla Ice. . . You guys have a sweet period piece and don't let anyone make you take the louvers off.

Thanks, my Dad bought as a 1 owner, 62,000 mile car and has been driving it on weekends a good amount, not to much though, so I guess that's a plus. We never planned on taking them off. I personally love them, but again, it's not my car. Good luck and remember to live your dreams:).

Drive the piss out of it. It's a 5.0 it deserves a good home. Disable all the hosology and put a big carb on it and let that 302 breathe. I will say the amount of clean fox bodies is dwindling so enjoy your relic of the 80's.

Exactly. That's what my Dad says. Not many original foxes left.

The ones you do find are complete basket cases. But there are some really sick drag foxes out there. Out of all the different Mustang bodies the foxes are my favorite.

Never see these anymore! That is the car that made me sell my '77 Trans Am back when I was in high school. One drive was all I needed. This is the first of my 8 fox body cars and I loved every one of them.

TRX wheels. Metric and impossible to find tires for!

Nice, that white one looks awesome.

Exactly, my Dad is not to happy with them. He asked the guy he bought from if the tires were dry rotted, and he said "no", and they are. My dad has to track some tires down.

Needless to say that I've been trying to make my '93 look like a 4-eye since I've had it...

Your car is very pretty too!

The last time I looked for new tires for that wheel, they were $2K. Your dad could buy a set of newer Mustang wheels with tires and convert the car to 5 lugs for that kind of money.

He was thinking he would buy rims and tires off of one of the mustang forums if he ever needs them.
