85 bullitt build

06GreenMachine · January 9th, 2012, 02:29 PM

I recently bought an 85 Mustang GT that im looking to work on. It needs some work but i wanted to see what you guys thought of building it to look like a bullitt. Since they never made a bullitt fox i think it would be cool to do. I already have bullitt rims off a 2001. What do you guys think?

ryanw · January 9th, 2012, 02:48 PM

I love the year....my first was a 85 black gt with svo quarter panel window sails and the svo little skirting that mounts right in front of the rear wheel, i wish i still had her.

Your build should be cool, im just not a fan of green mustangs, but sounds like a fun build.

Other then green paint and wheels, what else do you plan for the body ?

ALEXLOPEZ62188 · January 9th, 2012, 02:51 PM

Notch?

06GreenMachine · January 9th, 2012, 06:51 PM

Nah not a notch, my bro has a notch though that hes building for SCCA. But yeah i love the style of the 85-86 mustangs. I plan on putting a cobra spoiler and probably 1.5 or 2.5 inch cowl hood on it. Not to sure about anything else though at this point

ALEXLOPEZ62188 · January 9th, 2012, 06:56 PM

My cousin is building an 87 notch painted green already with 17x8 bullitts including the Mach 1/ bullitt brakes... I'll try to get pix

Thats got to be pretty sick haha

ryanw · January 9th, 2012, 08:11 PM

Id keep the stock rear wing over going with the cobra.

lmao

06GreenMachine · January 10th, 2012, 12:48 AM

hahahah looks like not many of you really like the cobra spoiler

. Idk theres just something about it i like. I may have weird taste but i like it.

ALEXLOPEZ62188 · January 10th, 2012, 01:03 AM

Looks great on cobras

.
Definitely matter of opinion tho. I personally made my old GT into a cobra clone. But I'll keep my LX on the stock wing...

ryanw · January 10th, 2012, 01:06 AM

Dont get me wrong i like the cobra wing, i just like the stock look of the 85, with or with out a cowl hood, well i still like saleen wings to...lol

crowbar73 · January 10th, 2012, 06:57 AM

I used to have an 85 also and really liked it, just didn't have the money to do anything with it back then. I also like the cobra spoiler, that what i put on my 89. I don't think i've seen pics of a fox/bullitt either, sounds cool

FastStang91Lx · January 10th, 2012, 07:26 AM

I didn't put the cobra wing on my car, came that way. I'm not sure what I would have done. Probably would have put a GT hatch wing on it. But since it's there, well, it stays,

cleangtvert · January 10th, 2012, 10:03 PM

LOL! sorry i couldnt help it . i'm bad!

1LOUDGT · January 11th, 2012, 06:26 AM

It’s your rendition but I would keep the stock rear spoiler or remove it and ditch the cowl hood idea. The 68 390 didn’t have either. Since you’re going to paint it, I would de-badge it and replace with some 01 or 08 badges and graphics.

You do make a good point on the spoiler and hood. The origonal bullitt didnt have anything like that. But no spoiler looks terrible on the 85 bodystyle. You guys are making me think im going to stick with the stock spoiler. Plus it will save me 300$ hahaha. And im still thinking im going to do the cowl hood. But just a 1 and a half inch.
