I talked quite a bit with the  current owner and found out the history of the car to some degree. He  had owned it since 1990 but pulled it off the road in 1999 due to low power, turbo &#8220;whine&#8221; and  smoking.  Originally a California car, he had moved to Wichita Falls over the past  few  years and had kept the car under a small carport in his back yard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This had  been good for the car as it was overall protected from the elements but it&#8217;s  rear was exposed to the sun thus some sun and slight hail damage on the back  side. I looked over the car the best&nbsp; I could. The turbo was in the hatch  area and the car was a bit in shambles on the inside but it appeared to be all  there. The seller was firm on his price but he did have a valid Texas title for  the car in his name so the deal was made for $1500 and we proceeded to load it  up on the trailer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"523\" src=\"https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/85SVOOnWayHome.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-983\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/85SVOOnWayHome.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/85SVOOnWayHome-300x262.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 85vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>She was a bit ugly with the missing outer turn signals and the ugly black \nsteelies but the car looked pretty rust free, the doors worked great and the \nturn signals were inside the car including the really hard to find passenger \none. Along with that were a brand new Ford in the box pair of rear tail light \nlenses that went with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Li &#8211; Our New Puppy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While I&#8217;m out working hard to get a new &#8220;horse&#8221; in our stable, my wife is out \nlooking for a new dog. She actually called me on the phone while we were loading \nup the car to ask how things were going and when I said I bought the car, she \nsaid she bought a dog. Quan Li Ponder, or &#8220;Lee&#8221; was there to greet me as a \nlittle furry ball of love when I arrived home and has been our little furry \nfriend ever since.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_2047-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-984\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_2047-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_2047-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_2047-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_2047-1200x900.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_2047.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.protowrxs.com\/index.php\/automobiles-and-projects\/1985-mustang-svo\/svo-build-page\/\">Back to the Build Index<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Back to the Build Index The Ride Home&#8230; and a New Dog The car was found on Craigslist in Wichita Falls Texas, about a two and three quarter&#8217;s hour drive from where we live.
