Went to check out the ‘87 LX this evening. It’s exactly as advertised and we’re gonna try and get it home by Monday latest. :)
Also, this is by car the best Craigslist experience I’ve ever had, especially because it’s the first and only one!! The owner is a true car guy. You won’t believe until we go back to pick it up, but he’s got a Candy Apple Red Boss 429 stored away in his garage. I didn’t wanna take a picture and be intrusive. He’s owned it 38 years and he’s had 15 Mustangs besides this one!
Once it’s home, we’re gonna get the last parts it needs(radiator, alternator) to run, carb it and fire it up and drive! :)

Congrats, my first car was a blue ‘87 LX. Enjoy the best map light ever.

What’s the plan? Drag car? Paint looks kinda rough to be a show car. You could also weld the doors and throw a cage in and take it rally racing

No more 944?

Still have the 944 but it's in the shop and it's gonna be pricey. Fortunately, I'm not buying this car, she is!! :D

Gonna get it running right and tend to the surface rust. Do a cheap paint job and drive it like we stole it!

Life question - what do you do if/when her mustang beats your 944? Turbo time?

Well, a lot has happened in the past day...a lot of depressing shit went down, so we’re pretty much not a thing anymore. And I’d probably get a Mustang if that were the case, but it isn’t anymore so... :(
I don’t want to say here what happened, but you’d understand if I told you.

Life advice - don’t go full throttle when you’re unsure of your traction.

I may or may not be in bed by the time you send something. It’s like 2am and I have a customer visit in the morning but I’ll get to it when I get a chance.
And for the record.......part of why I give you crap but still stick around........you remind me an awful lot like me a few years back but you have more money and a focus ST. I almost bought a porsche 944 in college with money I thought I had until I realized my dad had stolen it, so tht kinda crimped things......But I do want to hear what happened and yeah, there’s my email in my other comment.
