New guy from East Tennessee

Hi guys I recently bought my 5th 83-88 bird the first 4 were Turbo Coupes This one  is a 5.0
 I had a Mark VII LSC for a couple of years as well as numerous Fox Stangs
 My true love is the classic stangs 
 But the Fox platform makes great daily drivers

It was quite neglected so I am working through all the gremlins first
 I do want a Turbo coupe hood for it eventually  maybe some different wheels

Welcome New Guy from East Tennessee! Your about 1/2 hour from where we'll be living when we move down there. If all goes well, we'll be in Lenoir City.

Yes , but the alternator was the least of its troubles :)
 He had started out asking 1800 I ended up giving him 400 :cool:
