Seems like every 71,2,3 mustang I find that's been sitting has a tag on the back that shows a date year of '87, '88 or '89. I have determined that owners after 15 years of the car being on the road called it quits and turned off the key. Now roughly 20 - 25 years later these cars are turning up for sale or are being brought back to life after having been sitting for all these years.
Anyone finding anything different on the tags of the sitting cars?
Anyone want to speculate as to why they were parked in the late 80's? Did the paint get too faded? Did the engine leak too much oil? Did the new cars really have it going on with their modern designs?
Hmm, that last question has me thinking. Seems like the '87 vettes had new digital dashes like Kit from Knight Rider and many of the popular songs were heavy on the synthesizer.
