"1991 1st owner was a old fat black lady. She had it until 130Kish before I bought off her.
All receipts kept FROM day 1 to now! Serviced at Ford until 70kish. Very well documented until this day. Only thing missing is window sticker. Still have copy of original title and the selling brochure from the dealership.
Everything works. Original radio just changed out last month. Still have it.
Most parts are Fordmoco, Motor craft, or Ford Racing.
Royal purple oil throughout car.
A lot of extra Ford parts some new. IE like the front lights. In box
New weatherstripping. In box
Cobra disc larger front pads and rotor , Cobra rear disc, cobra booster, and master cylinder, new rubber brake lines. Old brake parts still kept.
Cobra rack and pinion (quicker turn radio than normal GT) 10K ago.
3:55 gears. overall good street and highway
Bfgoodrich tires 95% tread left.
All trim pieces, deck cargo pullout shade , headliner center flexible reading light, owners manual etc
Aftermarket parts are headers, kn drop in filter, Mallory spark plug wires, and coil. About 25-30K ago.

The bad
