Guys selling it because he needs the money. I am going to get it. It seems like a killer deal for 1200 bucks.

Did any 84 come with manual trans and efi? Also it looks to have original wheels are the hubcaps hard to find and expensive?

wheels and engine

Definitely ask about the engine. The one in this last picture appears to be a later (86 - 88) 5.0 speed density version?????

stielow775 07-16-2010 06:25 PM

What should it be carbureted?

Also title shows 84 but the wheels look like 85 86 ish era dont they?

No. My first reply explained the induction/trans combos available in '84 and '85. No deviation from those combos were allowed.

There are two Buck Tags on the car. The one without the DSO is the one that will have either the trans or the induction code on it.

It should be carburated. It has the wrong wheels for the year. Killer deal any way you cut it. Does it run?

stielow775 07-17-2010 01:02 AM

So what am i looking at to put it back to original how hard are the wheels to find? What about the carb and air filter?

Are those ssp specific for those years?


I want it as close to oem as possible?


What year wheels are those off of?

Unless someone knows specifically that this particular DSO batch or that all Utah SSPs regardless of DSO were manual/carbureted, I haven't seen any evidence posted that says so either way. Posting the Buck Tag or VC Label (door tag) codes, or getting the matching VIN from the transmission, would settle it.

SSPs did not have anything special as far as the powertrain goes, so induction would be standard-issue Capri/Mustang stuff.

if the wheels are 15" four lug they are 85/86 ssp wheels. They are worth about 125.00 each. the correct wheels for an 84 SSP are hard to find but they are out there.
