    Anyone have or know of an 85 Skyhawk T type for sale? I had one as my first car, wow what a car! 5 speed, 1.8 liter 4 cyl. I loved that car.
    I wish I had a photo of it,...... :(
    Thanks, John

    I took the t-type steering wheel off of a decent one yesterday at the local salvage yard. Car was in good shape, not sure why its in the yard. I can check on it if interested.

    If I ended up with it,....would you give the steering wheel back to me??!!!??

    LOL!
    If you would like to check on it, that would be fine.
    Thanks, John :cool:

    I would have to guess a t-type steering wheel is about the same value as the rest of the car. :laugh: I did get a nice t-type wheel off of a '86 t-type Lesabre also so I could part with one of them.

    How about an 86?

    I have an 86 Turbo T, originally white over grey, now 92 Honda Phantom grey metallic. Aftermarket wheels with 255/50s on them.

    125K mles, runs great! Has Holset HX25 turbo, Conquest front mount IC, 2.5" exhaust, ported header, other minor mods.

    clear coat is peeling, has about a dozen hail dents.

    Bad part? Trans is slipping pretty bad in third gear--went out after I beat a high 13 sec mustang...

    Any interest? I can email pics.

    Also have an 85 Skyhawk Wagon...good tranny, needs engine work. Could make a package deal...

    Cars are in central OK.

    Its Dark red over Gray cloth, and is complete, its a salvage yard car and Im not sure about the title but you can get one thru Broadway since its older than 89

    I checked on it today, it is an 85, with a late 84 prod date, 5 speed, and he wants $700, not sure if he has a title though : (
