This Buehler's Days Off Are Spent On Or In His GT (http://www.highperformancestangs.com/featuredvehicles/m5lp_0912_1988_mustang_gt/index.html)When steering the conversation to the odometer in our rides, it's usually to boast about how few digits have been tallied on it. Not so with Jim Buehler, who gleefully points out that his '88 GT has racked up more than 300,000 miles. And he should know: He bought it brand-new in November 1988 after a glancing head-on collision had written off his first Fox-an '80 Mercury Capri RS-a few days prior (on Halloween). At the time, Jim was based at Naval Air Station Kingsville, Texas, where he was in flight training. Now a retired lieutenant commander living in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin, he and his GT have each travelled great distances, no doubt at pretty good velocities, in their respective careers.inline_mediumwraptextrightNo, he doesn't drive it at this height, but Air Ride's CoolRide airbags can really bring the hatchback down to earth for show duty. And the Mineral Gray hue is really set off by those '01 Bullitt hoops.26514631/featuredvehicles/m5lp_0912_1988_mustang_gtm5lp_0912_01+1988_mustang _gt+front_angle.jpgTrue
