That is a rare car right there.

[@baldeaglegarage]

Sure is, too bad it was left out on grass uncovered for 20 years.

[@shawnwest9383]

Did you ever find the dip stick if not it may be in the trunk

[@baldeaglegarage]

Haha, nope! The engine is out and I've looked all over for where the tube should insert into. There is a boss on driver side towards the back, but its filled with a bolt. Oddest thing I've seen on this car so far.

just picked up a 90 gt 5 speed for 300 bucks I couldn't pass it up

[@baldeaglegarage]

Nice deal! Are you looking for any parts?

[@enjoythesho1992]

@@baldeaglegarage possibly I'm going to start working on it this weekend its been sitting for a few years so I'm sure it needs the normal fuel system breaks cooling system flushed

[@baldeaglegarage]

Awesome! Let me know if you do!

[@TurboWindsor]

What’s the build date on that car? Very rare end of production t-top car as it has some unique clues that’s it’s one of the last ones.

[@baldeaglegarage]

Where would I find the build date?

[@michaelm3381]

@@baldeaglegarage I know your Firehawk should have a sticker in the driver's side door jamb. I don't know if it's the same for mustangs.

[@baldeaglegarage]

You're right, there is supposed to be a sticker on the drivers door. The drivers door has been replaced, and repainted twice. So even if there was a sticker there, not sure it would be accurate. However, I did find out some very interesting info about this car, coming up in a new video.

[@TurboWindsor]

@@baldeaglegarage I think there may also be a “buck tag” on the core support with build date info.

[@baldeaglegarage]

@@TurboWindsor Yep found it, 10/06 is on the buck tag. I did find the door sticker too, I was looking on the door, not the jamb. 10/87 is on the sticker.
