    “The Boss is Back” is the best advertising tag line of my lifetime. First thing i I think of every time I see a Mustang GT.

      My dad raced a chick in an 88 gt in his (new at the time) 91 gt. He said she kept right up with him but he still had a fender on her. At the light after about a mile they waved and turned off. Never seen her or the car again. Always thought that was an awesome story.

    I worked at a Ford dealership (1979-1985) when the GT came out.
    The very early "GT" all had "SS" labels on the hatch and pass side dash.
    My understanding was that GM had a cow about the "SS" moniker
    and the cars were switched to "GT".
    I think we had 3 marked "SS"

      @@sirs_3703 Ford knew Chevy was introducing an all new Camaro in 1982 and wanted something quick to take the spotlight from Chevy. Since Chevy wasn't going to use the SS model in 82 Ford decided to call the new 5.0L high output SS but it didn't sit well even inside Ford corporate so at the last minute it was changed to GT which Ford had used on performance Mustangs in the 60s. How close was it? At least one pre-production car was tested and photographed by a magazine with SS emblems. Note the first few weeks of GT production had a GT sticker on the hatch because the plastic emblems weren't ready in time, later cars like my April production date 82 GT have plastic emblems. My factory service manuals from Ford list Mustang SS in certain cases. However I've never confirmed a documented production Mustang with SS emblems ever being shipped to any dealership.

      I read somewhere that you could order an automatic 82 GT late in the year. And it looked the same but you got the 117 HP 4.2 liter V8. Funny part was they still put 5.0 emblems on it. Still trying to confirm that one though.

    • @shithawks302
      @shithawks302 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      331Grabber I had an 81 carriage roof notch with the 200-6, so I looked up a lot on the 79-82. If you ordered an 82gt with the automatic(why!!???!!!) you got that boat anchor 4.2L 255v8. Must've been a C.A.F.E. thing, cause it couldn't have cost ford more and it certainly wasn't wanted lol. Not sure if they had 5.0 emblems, never seen one in the flesh. I know they were black/silver/red only for the GT, but you could order a GLX with the 5.0 and SROD 4spd manual.

    • @331Grabber
      @331Grabber 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ha! My first car was a 79 Mustang Ghia notch with that weird vinyl roof and the wheezy 140 HP 5.0 and 3 speed auto. Had that horrible variable venturi 2 BBL excuse for a carb on it. Mine had a sun roof and the vinyl on the roof ended right before it so it stopped before it got to the front. Also had the funky porno red interior.
      I also owned an 80 Ghia notch with the 2.3 turbo. Had the hood scoop with "Turbo" badge on it. Never got that one running... :(
