I finally decided to sell my 1999 Mustang GT Convertible (35th Anniversary) instead of finishing it.  I have two convertibles already and recently bought another project car so I need some space in my garage.  Ford only made a little over 14,000 of these in this color and I'm sure most of them are already in the grave.  Similar to all of the 1999 GT's, it has the anniversary badges on the fenders where the GT logo normally goes and it has the factory 17" wheels.

 

Here is a list of the cosmetic items:

• Leather interior is in good condition - no tears, rips, holes but Driver's seat does show some wear
• Interior is in good shape, carpet is reasonable but not perfect.  Dash and console are in good shape, the interior door grab-handle inserts have the same issue everyone else has, they just come loose over the years because of the plastic clip design.  No foul smells or anything, smells good and clean.
• Convertible top is in good shape, no rips or holes or anything - the glass in the back is clear and solid.  The canvas edge-trimming is showing some small signs of wear from having the top down, but hardly noticeable.  Top goes up and down without stalling or binding and fits nice and tight
• Paint & Clearcoat has a great shine, I've cut it and buffed it to help bring out some shine with a very mild polish so there is still a lot more gloss that could be buffed up.  It looks like it was resprayed since the factory paint, it's too glossy to be original
• New headlights (old lights were just fogged beyond repair when I bought it)
• New Taillights (one of them was cracked when I bought it so I a bought new set)
• Tires have well over 70% left on them

 

Here is the list of mechanical items:

• Stock 4.6 SOHC engine
• Automatic transmission w/overdrive and traction control
• New valve seals and valve keepers (they were shot when I bought it)
• New valve springs
• New valve gaskets and timing cover gasket
• New IAC valve
• New K&N Cold Air intake kit
• Aftermarket exhaust with a nice deep rumble (H-pipe layout)
• New fuel injectors
• New Coil-On plug boots and factory-recommended plugs
• New timing chains and tensioners
• New battery
• Has the redesigned metal coolant cross-over on the intake manifold - Ford recalled a bunch of these when the original cheap plastic cross-overs kept breaking
• Unfortunately for me, cylinder #1 is just not holding good compression and has a misfire.  I've spent enough already and I'm done, I'm in too deep on this one already to put any more money in it.  I don't know what's wrong with it, might be a cheap fix or might be expensive - but I'm not spending any more time or money on it.  The car books out around $7,500 so there should be plenty of room to buy it and fix it.

I would not personally consider the car road safe, with the low compression on cylinder #1 it has a terrible misfire.  The buyer will need to trailer the car home or have it shipped and I can work with the buyer to make arrangements to get it shipped - it's not that expensive and well worth it.

 

Let me know if you have any questions, I try to answer messages in the evenings so give me a little time and I'll respond.  If I see anyone bidding with a feedback of less than 5 I'll be cancelling your bid unless you contact me first.  Also, if you don't pay when you win you're only ruining it for everyone else - so don't bid if you don't have the cash.  Title is in-hand and clear, I'm ready to take a loss and move on so bid to win!
