Really....I can't believe you didn't know any of that! HAHAHAHAHA.........Yup, another one just showed you how stupid they look! Pretty funny really.
You should tell him its a one year only Motang.
...now THATS funny :laughing:
MotorParts ... not an "aftermarket" supplier , per se ; it's the parts operation of DdCP ( Dodge / deSoto / Chrysler / Plymouth ) .
Either way , the guy's an asshat .
btw , 140 MPH speedo = police package setup . A "regular" LX would've had an 85 MPH speedo .:thumblef:
Not true. Lot's of Lx's cars and GT's came with a 140 mph speedo. 87-88 5.0's had the 85mph speedo, in 88 from October to the end of 89 the 140 mph speedo was used. A "Special Service" vehicle had a special speedo that was marked "Certified Calibration" and was a 160mph speedo.
You could even get the 140 speedo from 85-88 but was clearly marked "Motorsport"
I stand corrected . Thanks for the specific info :thumblef: .
It's ostensibly been a number of years since I've paid close attention to Mustangs .
I knew about the Certified Calibration deal , but I didn't realise that it went to 160 MPH (!) .
Not to rail road here ...
There used to be a hatchback '82 Mustang "Special Service" ex-CHP unit in the town where I grew up .
I though that the hatchback body style was odd , even back in '86 . From what I understand , there were but a tiny handful of the H.B. bodies made for CHP use ; something like 5 - 10 being made :shock:. It was owned by a college kid ; I haven't seen the car in over 20 years .
