1989 Mustang 5.0 LX Convertible Red with a black top and red interior.  This is a 25th Anniversary model, it does have the original dash anniversary badge.  The interior is original and most of the paint is as well.  It looks like the red bellow the Black trim has been done at some time due to rock chips and the passenger side fender since it looks more like base coat clear there.  The underside is exceptionally clean, there is no rust that I have come across in the last 8 years of owning it.  I have done a lot of work on the car and been through about every square inch of the car.  When it was bought, I gutted the inside cleaning as I went.  The paint has been buffed out and cleaned up very well unfortunately an owner prior to me didn't know how to use the buffer and burned through the edges on the fender/hood areas and trunk quarter areas.  It still looks great for original 25 year old paint with 103k miles.  This car is not a perfect show car, but it is a great cruiser and will still do well at your local car show.  I bought it with 102k on it and it now has 103k, needless to say I have spent more time building it up to the way it is than I have driving it 8 years and about 1,000 miles.  I have probably spent close to $10,000 by the time I add up all of the receipts.  My last thing that I wanted to do was upgrade the braking system while keeping it 4 lug since I have the set of Pony's on it that I redid when I bought it.  Here is a list of most of what has been done to the car since I have owned it, there is the general maintainace items as well.

  • Flowmaster Force II Exhaust System with Polished Stainless Tips
  • BBK Cat X-Pipe with new o2 Sensors
  • Edelbrock Equal Length Ceramic coated Shorty Headers
  • Stage 8 Locking Header bolts
  • BBK 65MM Throttle Body and EGR Spacer
  • C&L MAF Sensor and Intake Tube
  • FRPP Cold Air Intake
  • FRPP Strut Tower Brace
  • KYB Front Struts and Rear Shocks
  • Rebuilt Steering Rack
  • Prothane Red Engine and Transmission Mounts
  • Refinished 16" Pony Wheels and General Exclaim UHP Tires
  • FRPP Spark Plug Wires, new plugs, Accell Cap & Rotor
  • New Radiator hoses and 180 deg Thermostat
  • New Black Pinpoint (Style used on new cars) Convertible Top
  • Convertible Top Cylinder and system bled
  • New Ford Battery Cables
  • New Headlight, turn signal and parking light kit
  • Reflective Mustang Bumper inlays and custom Mustang 3rd brake light overlay

If you want to take a look at the car please feel free to get in touch with me.  I do have it listed locally and have the right to end the auction early if it is sold prior to the end of the auction.  This is a binding contract. 

Most of the mustang fox problems have been taken care of, it is ready to drive.  My wife and I were talking about it today and we both agreed that it is a great car that we need to let go since we just don't have time to drive it.  If you are interested bid to win it is a clean car, don't waste my time if you're here screwing around.

Ford Mustang to get four-cylinder in Europe, but not US

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Fans of the Ford Mustang SVO, which was produced from 1884 through 1986 with a turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine and a manual transmission, may be interested to know that Ford is reportedly going to introduce something similar for 2015. But don't get too excited if you live in the US, as Edmunds reports that the vehicle will be offered in Europe only. Boo!
According to the report, Ford will put a version of its EcoBoost turbocharged four-cylinder into the engine bay of the Mustang. The engine would be enlarged from its current 2.0 liters to 2.3 liters, taking horsepower from 252 to around 300. The well-known 5.0 V8 engine will also be available in Europe.
"The Mustang is uniquely Ford and has a huge fan base here in Europe. Now those fans have something to look forward to and we look forward to providing more details in the near future," says Ford of Europe CEO Stephen Odell. That's great... but why not offer buyers in the States the (likely) fuel-efficient turbo option, too?

Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 has a bit of a dyno issue

Tue, 28 May 2013

We're of the mind that each and every dyno should come with Murphy's Law painted in big, visible letters down the side. For every ten successful dyno runs out there, it seems there's one where events to horribly wrong. Take, for example, the video below. The clip shows what happens when a Ford Shelby GT500 and a mobile dyno have a bit of a disagreement at the Performance Expo 24 in Sherbrooke, Quebec. We won't spoil the results for you, but we will say there's some substantial carnage involved.
It's unclear just how much damage ensues from the dust up or whether anyone was harmed in the incident, but from the looks of things, everyone made it out without serious injury. If only we could say the same for the machines involved. Check out the video below.
