Brought home a new bird! 83 TC 5Spd, mint September 01, 2005, 12:54:52 AM It's an actual 83, small emblems and everything. Silver/grey cloth, 5Spd, 98K miles, prem sound, with PERFECT Marchal's and 2 sets of perfect covers. Riding on 10-holes (215 front, 255 back) and came with the original set of 8-holes on original wheels. It's complete down to the tray inside the console.

Re: Brought home a new bird! 83 TC 5Spd, mint Reply #5 – September 01, 2005, 07:07:17 PM That sounds to be one hell of a deal! So I'll have to retort as chuck did. ! The only thing that I noticed is that you said it had the factory 8 hole wheels. In 83-84 they would have put the TRX wheels on it from the factory.those would be those 14.5 inch wheels that no one has tires for. Quote Selected

(I own an 83, 2 87's, 3 88's, and an 88 Coug along with a 92 SHO). :hick: Here's some pics of it cleaned up. I drove a 650 mile round trip without a single hiccup in the first 3 days of ownership. Today I cleaned it, andbought some floormats for it. Well, the fix-it list is done. :D Here's some pics. Quote Selected
