That 1984 GT350 had the 1984 Mustang GT engine with 175hp if it had a manual transmission. 210hp didn’t arrive until the 1985 5 speed GT. The rarest of the 1984 GT350’s were 2.3 turbo convertible versions of which only 105 were made.

[@toddsholtis4470]

Thank you pointing this out because I was going to do it, also the 5.0 EFI version had 165hp (I believe that was the 5.0 H.O. with automatic?). I saw a brand new 4 cyl Turbo Convertible GT350 in the showroom in Connecticut back in 1984, I wanted it, but sadly could not afford it. Also Carroll Shelby had nothing to do with this GT350. Also Wizard called this a 4 valve, that was not correct, the 4V meant 4 barrel.

Exactly. Even an accomplished mechanic like Car Wizard should know that...

[@christopherhamilton5557]

This really takes me back. Many years ago my brother and I flew from North Carolina to Wichita Kansas to go pick up our very own 1984 mustang GT 350 convertible much like the one you have there. The car had about 70,000 miles on it. It had mustang pony wheels with the originals in the trunk not in bad shape not in great shape. We drove it 240 miles back to Wichita (sight unseen!) had to catch a flight so we had to get to the shippers really quick and get to the airport. Over the next several years the car went through many improvements and upgrades, refurbishment, it always showed well at car shows and got awards. It also went to the 45th anniversary of the mustang event, and it also showed at the 50th anniversary of the Mustang event where we got to drive it from Atlanta Georgia to Concord North Carolina for the finale of the Mustangs across America. The car has gone to a collector in Florida now but we have so many great memories of that car.

[@bmwpete65s55]

That was likely my old car. I bought it in 1997 and sold it in 1999 with about 48k miles on it at the Wichita swap meet. I put the 16" Pony wheels on it and sold it with the original TRX's. Cool that it ended up in NC, that's where I live now!

[@christopherhamilton5557]

@@bmwpete65s55 we ended up buying it from Plains State Bank in Lakin KS if memory serves. The bank had it as the car was put up for collateral on a loan that defaulted. We had new paint carpets emblems installed and it looked fantastic. It lived under a padded car cover in a garage while we had it. Good memories!!!

[@sfbfriend]

I learned to drive in the early 70's, received my license in 1974. Had a few different cars all with small block V8's 2bbl carbs and they turned out a whopping 140 to maybe 165 HP. If I was lucky, because they were all high milage engines! I was a teen working full time and going to school. Couldn't afford much...Changed a few head gaskets back then. Thanks for the stroll back in time Wizard.

[@davem8790]

I like the recreated TRX Wheels - not sure if anybody noticed. The originals were 390 mm (15.3 inch) diameter so you had to use the Michelin TRX tires. These appear to be 17 inch. Probably not forged like the originals, but a whole lot easier to buy tires for. Cool car.

The “4v” is NOT the number of valves - it’s a standard 16 valve (8 intake, 8 exhaust) pushrod overhead valve engine. The “4v” is for 4 VENTURI, or 4 barrel carburetor. Also, Ford had been putting their cruise control switches on the steering wheel spokes since 1968.

In college, I had a 1983 Mustang GLX Coupe with the 5.0 and 4 barrel Holley Carb like this one. It had red interior too, but the sun faded it quickly. I bought it for $3,050 with 105,000 miles (1988) and got it up to 250,000 (1995). The first thing I did was get 15x7" wheels and Koni springs, sway bars and adjustable shocks. Moderate HP but still good torque meant it could spin the tires and drift. Of course in 1990 I put in a Kenwood CD changer and subwoofer.

[@eeengineer8851]

My first car in 1984 as a HS senior was a '79 Mustang. Same basic body as this car. Mine was the 2.3L 4 with a 4 speed and was as base as base gets. 88HP, 13" steel wheels, no rubber body trim, only option was power steering. It was my college car and early work years before various body damage, mechanical wear-out and rust took it off the road in 1998 or 99. I remember the ads for this GT-350 car at the time. I might have a brochure in my collection, not sure anymore. Another special model that year was the SVO with the 2.3 turbo and intercooler. Someone I used to work with bought one in 1994 as a repair project and I got to sit in it once. They kept it a couple years and passed it on to a collector.

[@foellerd]

[@kimbarron]

Nice clean, 20th Anniversary Edition Mustang! In my opinion, the one year only 1984 GT/GT-350 nose is the best looking of all the 4 eye Fox body noses. I maybe a bit biased as I own one of the 5261 20th Anniversary cars (5.0, 5 speed T-Top car). Maybe a bit slow by today's standards but pretty good for the early 80's. The missing cold air hoses on the air cleaner are available from LMR and are a pretty good repop.

[@rocketscience777999]

I had that exact car but with a hard top instead of a convertible top. It was a great car until it hit 60,000 miles then everything started breaking and rusting out. I t had a mechanical fuel pump driven off the crank shaft that was a nightmare to replace. I remember the clutch cable and heater core going as well as a number of other issues. If you like this style of Mustank, I'd def get an 1986 or later which had fuel injection and a lot more horsepower and reliability. Also, the wheels are metric and used an odd-ball size tire that was really expensive and have very poor grip.

We’ve got one of these ‘84 GT350 hatchbacks in the family. Unmodified with around the same mileage. I’m hoping we can restore it over time, on a budget, as it was barely driven since the early 90’s.

Sometime around 1963 or 1964, was bored out to 260 cubic inches, bored out again to 289 cubic inches for the Mustang and Fairlane, in 1968 was bored out to 302 cubic inches and basically remained unchanged until 2001.

It was a Mustang LX 5.0, Oxford white with blue cloth interior. This car didn't have 10k on the clock and it leaked oil from the rear main seal and started smoking from bad valve guides upon starting it. This car was 11,000 in 1987. It was a 5 spd and the clutch grabbed so high that I modified the cable with an aftermarket adjustable cable. I really felt this car was a rip off. There is no comparison to my C4 Corvette with tuned port injection and a doug nash 4spd plus 3 tranny. A 350 Chevy V8 is ten times the motor of the early 5.0s.

A couple of things... As someone else already pointed out: "4V" on the air cleaner stands for 4 barrel carburetor not 4 valve cylinder head. To be specific, it means four venturies on the carb. It's an old trick used by manufacturers to "impress" people that don't know any better. ~5.0 Liter 4V H.O.~ on the air cleaner sure looks and sounds impressive. It actually is the same warmed over 302 cid pushrod V8 Ford had been putting in cars since the late 60's. You spent some time explaining about the "high and mighty" emissions standards that auto makers were struggling with..... What Car Wizard neglected to say was that American auto makers tried and tried and tried and tried to pass these standards AS CHEAPLY AS POSSIBLE !!! They are just a bunch of penny pinchers that nickeled and dimed themselves into bankruptcy !! Ferrari and Porsche BOTH were using an older form of Electronic Port Fuel Injection back in the 1970's. Even humble ole' Volkswagen was using it before the first Foxbody ever rolled off the assembly line. (It was known as Bosch JetTronic injection.) Any auto engineer worth their weight in breadsticks will tell you; mixing Carburetors with a Catalytic Converter is a ticking bomb ready to go off. The unburned gas vapor actually melts the catalyst inside the converter. The next thing you know it gets clogged up and refuses to allow the motor's exhaust past the converter and runs like Poo.

Beautiful Fox Body. I prefer the four eyes over the later euro looking headlights.

There was a lawsuit regarding Ford using the GT350 moniker w/o Shelby’s permission. Questionnaires were sent to owners to see if they were associating the GT350 name with Shelby. I believe Ford settled before it went further. Shelby was working with Dodge back then, he finally went back to Ford
