My old 88' GTA
I appologize for the quality. These are scanned pictures from 1989-1992. I recently came across these pics in my safe and decided to post them. I unfortunately sold it in 92' to buy a new car for my fiance. WHAT WAS I THINKING!!!!!!!!
I bought this used in 89' for $14,200 with about 12K miles on it. It's a 350/auto hardtop and cloth interior. Man I loved that car! I did some performance mods to it as well as lowered it with Bell Tech spindles and springs and added the painted rear window louvers and tint as you can see. Some pics are with it lowered and some without.

along side my Bronco

Wow that is a nice nicecar! The only thing I am on the fence about is the louvers. I know they have their following but I am not into them. I wonder what she looks like today? Hard tops are the way to go. FYI... thats a Ranger, not a Bronco
. So what did you get for your fiance`? I hope it was worth the trade. I wonder what that stripper did to/in it?

EDIT> I see the Bronco... DUH!

EDIT> OK does anyone else notice anything ODD about my reply and the original post? The ranger picture appears twice and no Bronco in my quote but the OP has both.... WEIRD!
--------------------
EDIT> maybe that was his edit...

Honestly I don't think you want a 20 year old car from Michigan. MI can mess up a car pretty bad. Plus I want something different now......Ya, at the time I thought the louvers were the **** but I wouldn't do that today. It was awesome lowered though and back then you didn't see any fbodys lowered.

I double posted the EX pic and then edited it to include my Bronco in there. It wasn't your fault. And my EX took me for about 100G's and it was worth every penny!!!!!

OUCH 100G...
anyway my car is a 20 year old car from Ohio... not terribly different. I guess I just got lucky that it is seemingly flawless. We had it undercoated when we bought it new.
