Ford guys...need help with 87 Mustang

Avatard · 01-15-2010, 08:11 PM

Picked up a 5.0 Mustang for my kid. 1987.

The car has high miles for a car of it's origin and vintage, but was handed down in the same family, so it's been fairly well treated. The cat was still using it as his daily driver.

The body kit looks like ass, and I was wondering how hard it is to remove, and what's left after it's gone.

Also, I'm a Chevy guy...what goes bad on this shit?

The Brakes are kinda soft on it, even though the seller said it's just had a new master cylinder. Thinks it may need more bleeding, but pumping didn't seem to raise the pedal.

Its not god awful, but for my kid, I'd rather the brakes be rather crisp. Replace the rubber lines? What's the deal with these things? Am I just used to Chevy brakes?

Anyone have a line on parts?

Any help appreciated...
