Black 1983 Mustang GT hatchback owned by Tim from Cleveland, Ohio. This is our featured
Attitude Of The Week for the week starting July 24, 2016. Tim tells us,
"I bought it in 1985 when I was 19. I drove it for several years, but then parked it in the mid '90's. About 7 years ago, my brother took the car out of my mom's garage to a local shop and got it running again. At that point, it was mostly stock except a few visual mods. For the first few years, that was okay but after awhile my son and I needed to amp up the performance aspect of the car. In May 2013 we took to removing the motor and trans. Over the course of the next year and a half, the top end was completely gone through including GT40 iron heads, a Comp 268H cam, perform roller rockers, and an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake. This year, the car got new 10th anniversary cobra rims and lowering springs. It's a riot to drive, and was a great project to work on."

A shot of Tim's 1983 Mustang GT hatchback at a car show.

Here is a shot of the engine. Changes include; GT40 iron heads, Comp 268H cam, perform roller rockers, and an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake.

Here's a good way to get some attention. Put a high rise and dual quads on your 1983 Mustang hatchback. Looks like even the valve covers are too tall for the stock hood. It was one of the few Mustangs with it's hood open at the rainy 2009 car show at Uftring Ford.
