Up for auction is supercharged 1988 mustang.  I bought this car about a year and a half ago, but I have found that its just got a little more than I need under the hood.  It is a rush to drive, but I need a weekend cruiser with some go, and this car really should be cruising to the track on the weekends. I am a bit torn about selIing it, but we want to get something that the wife is comfortable driving too. I run the car on 50/50 race/pump gas.  It can run fine on just pump gas by simply dialing back the boost retard mouted on the dash.  The car has the 5-lug conversion and rims are from an 03 SVT cobra.  There are wheel spacers on the front lugs, so they can fit the 17x9" wheels.  I havent had a problem with them and a lot of people run them, but I was going to get something skinnier for the front. I'll leave that up to you. Mickey T drag radials in the back and goodyear eagle F1's in the font. The car is just how I bought it, and I will do my best to detail what I learned from the owner who had it built by a race shop in OK. I bought the car 200 miles after the build, and have put about 300 on it so everything that you see is about 2 years and 500 miles old, including the paint. He dumped a ton of $ into it and a house came up for sale that he had to have. I am not a mechanic, but I at least understand most of the terminology.  If you have any questions I will do my best to answer them. Please look closely at the pictures as the car is really nice, but not flawless. I do not have a hoist, but you can see that under the car is rust free. The motor is a 302 cleaned out to 306 with all forged internals, and a Vortec V-2 supercharger. The supercharger was used, but was sent in to Vortec for a complete rebuild when the engine was built. The car has been very dependable.  It always starts right up and runs great. A few of the non-essentials have been elimitated like heat, AC, wipers and cruise.  All of the lights and singals  are new and work fine.Below is a list of all aftermarket goodies that make this car something special.   The car put out over 700hp on straight race fuel at the crank. 537 hp to the rear wheels.

Please feel free to ask questions as I am sure I forgot something.  The car does have a slight oil leak from the rear main seal.  After some reading online I see that the ford 302 is known for that, ecspecially when they are boosted.  It does not leak all the time, only when it runs.  It has been such a small amount that I have left it alone.  The weather stripping and trim could be replaced in some areas, and the interior is nice, but not show quality. The plastic rear bumper cover has a slight bulge in the center that is more obvious in the pictures than in person.  The speedometer is not hooked up because it needs an a different plug is needed to go into the TKO vs its original 5 speed that the speedo is meant for.... Again please look at the pictures. Dont be scared off by this stuff.  Its all very minor, but as you can see from my feedback I don't want to try to sneak it by you and end up with an unhappy buyer.  For my starting bid you would be crazy not to be happy with this car.  The drivetrain cost more to build than $6k.  Good luck....and if you bid...plan on paying for it!
