Looking to entertain offers in the 11000 range.

Feel free to message me here on the forums as well.

I have for sale my 1983 Mustang GT Convertible
The car has 17,000 KM's on the odo.(It's likely that it's 117K overall, but no way to tell with the older cars so I'm just listing what it's showing)
Car was Dyno'd at the wheels with 215HP and 315 lb/f torque

This car is listed as #8, on the rarest mustangs list (Just google it)


1983 was the first year for the return of the convertible, and the GT edition was a limited production run of under 1000

1983 Was the first year of the return of the 302 H.O Engine - Which is the 302 with a 4v Holley Carb and the 351W Marine Camshaft.

1983 is the only year you could get manual roll up quarter windows
1983 is the only year you can get the 302 H.O without Ford's EEC (No computers on this car)

Tinted Glass
Removable Zip Up Rear Window (Yah the rear window comes right out, and it has a pouch)
Original Keys
Borg Warner T5
8.8 Traction Loc Rear Axle (Burnout machine)
Anti Hop Bars (So you don't jump all over when you do said burnouts)
Power Windows / Power Convertible Top (Works Perfect)
No Tears or Rips in Convertible Top (Is the original)
Cruise Control
GT Package
Original Paint
Original Top
Dual Exhaust - Straight from the headers back
Manual Roll up quarter windows (Power and manual windows on same car from factory, only year for mustang)

I have restored the car to it's factory condition with the following exceptions
- Doesn't have original air cleaner, it had it when I got it, but it was in garbage condition so I replaced it with one that matches the valve covers ( You could just buy another one if you want)
- Doesn't have original TRX tires as they dry rotted, although the original TRX spare is still there and has never been removed.LMR has the TRX wheels for sale, but I think they are ugly so I've got 10 hole style on it.


Marti Report Available for serious buyers.(Deluxe and Elite) I know what I have here so please don't waste my time. You simply cannot find these cars anymore, This one they only made 8 that went to Canada in 1983.

This car is currently plated and registered (But not driven as it's the winter)
This car is recognized and registered in the 1983 Mustang GT Convertible Registry as car 8 of 8 shipped to Canada in 1983

4V Original Holley Carb


Upgrades
- Frame Rails (As the car sat for so long, the brake bushing block leaked brake fluid onto the drivers side rail, and eroded it away. So I replaced both to make sure the stiffness was even)
- Torque Boxes (These come just bolted in, they are now welded in for added stiffness)
- New Ignition coil with ballast (Just for a little extra kick on cold starts)
- New Dash (The car was a barn car, so the old dash had some fading)
- New Convertible Boot Cover (The old one had a small hole in it from where a mouse ate it)

Interior is immaculate with the exception of the rip in the drivers seat. It's right along the seam, happened when I caught my keys on it, it can be sewn back together but I'm not a seamstress.



This is an unmodified foxbody survivor that I have put the work into restoring and am now looking to get to a person who will appreciate it. You just can't find this car anymore, as they made less than a 1000 in 1983, and after 34 years there simply isn't many left. T-Top GT 83's are going for over 15K, and this car outperforms them, and has a lower production run. I know what I have, and have spent the time and money researching and restoring this car to where it should be.

Insurance is around 280 a year with Haggerty
I can provide pictures of any area of the car for serious buyers.
