this is my 1990 ford mustang 5.0, fox body mustang
I will start right off by saying this car is being sold as a project, it runs, shifts, drives, but has not physically been on road in at least 5 years due to the fact that I have been slowly tinkering on making it quicker and faster as time permits
it has spent most of its life out west ,has never seen a winter, and rarely been in the rain
I have had full intentions of returning it to a driver but simply haven't had the time
as it sits the car will need a complete going through, right now it starts right up idles with a nice low lope and sounds really nice
it has a very nice healthy lope due to the comp cam and will sit and idle
the battery is currently mounted in back for weight transfer and the car also received a faster higher volume fuel pump, also has a cold air induction system, short throw shifter, 32 ib injectors and more
the sway bar and power steering pump are not available as they were removed for weight savings and will have to be reinstalled to pass inspection
interior is in decent used shape, will need a good vacuuming of carpet, but car has desirable black interior
never seen snow, always garage kept, so little to no rust, rear fender and side of car has a long shallow dent, rear quarter panels are faded, but I did have them buffed pretty easy, rest of car is bright
nice dual 2 inch exhaust, car came from factory at around 250 horse, currently as sits is near low to mid 300`s with motor mods, does require at a minimum 93 octane
once again please understand this is a project that will require considerable work to make road ready, unless you just want to bash on it at the track
has been a very good car to me and I am still on fence about selling
speedo stopped working approx. 2-3 years ago, so mileage is still fairly accurate considering car is not driven on street
car may/will need many more items that I have not listed not including tires, brakes, shocks, etc
car does shift hard, but that is due to heavier clutch, if you can put enough foot into it to depress that left peddle it will has problems
this is overall an really nice car, that sounds absolutely awesome, and turns heads wherever taken, easily will break tires loose through shifts
I will add to description as questions are asked or I think of things
see pics
car will need to be picked up with either trailer or tow dolly
thanks
On Sep-16-13 at 13:56:26 PDT, seller added the following information:
Ive already had a few conditions regarding car and condition, and what it will take to make road worthy
as stated above car will need a complete going through - that being said, Id drive it like it is, but that is me, anticipate it needs a lot and you wont be disappointed
I do not know specifics of clutch or comp cam, other than they are significantly more aggressive than stock
title is clear with no issues
thanks

Ford recalling 126,000 Fusions and Milans over wheel separation concern
Fri, 09 Dec 2011Ford has announced a recall of certain Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles after an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 128,616 2010 and 2011 models equipped with steel wheels may have been manufactured with wheel studs that could crack and split over time. If that happens, the vehicle may experience a wheel separation.
According to The Detroit News, the company is aware of a total of 30 wheel separation incidents, one of which occurred on the front of the vehicle. Even so, no injuries have been reported as a result of the defect.
The problem apparently stems from the fact that the mounting pads on the vehicles' steel wheels may have been faulty from the factory. In addition, the wheel mounting face on rear disc brakes may not have been installed properly. Ford will inspect the rear disc face and replace them as necessary. In addition, the company will replace all of the vehicle's wheel studs free of charge. Head to the NHTSA website for more information, and click past the jump to view the full recall notice.
New Ford dedicated hybrid due in 2018, will it fare better than C-Max?
Fri, Aug 22 2014Everyone likes to go after the champ. When it comes to fuel economy, that means taking on the Prius, which is something that automakers not named Toyota have been trying to do for years. Just because no one has been able to beat the Prius for fuel economy numbers isn't stopping them from trying. Hyundai was just caught with a potential Prius-fighter and now we have news that Ford is joining the party. Well, is going to join again. The last time Ford said it was going to challenge the Prius, it didn't go quite as planned. The C-Max hybrid was heavily hyped as a Prius-beater and was originally rated at 47 miles per gallon. Of course, it later needed to be recalculated to just 40 mpg and sales tanked. So, it's back to the Blue Oval drawing board, according to Automotive News, which is reporting that Ford is readying a brand new gas-electric hybrid due in 2018 as a 2019 model year vehicle. A plug-in version is in the works, too, and the car will reportedly share a platform with the upcoming next-gen Focus and Escape models. About those C-Max sales. They have not been stellar for the C-Max hybrid, which started strong but suffered when the reality of the lower fuel economy was realized. So far in 2014 (through the end of July), Ford has sold 11,685 gas-electric models and another 4,759 plug-in Energi versions. The trend for the standard C-Max is downward (from 20,125 during the same time frame in 2013) and upward for the plug-in version (2,915 in the first seven months of 2013).
Ford issues four recalls covering 163k vehicles
Tue, 19 Aug 2014Recalls! 2014 will be forever remembered as the year that automakers went recall crazy, with millions and millions of vehicles adding up to crush previous recall records well before the end of the year. Adding to that tally is Ford, which announced a call-back for 163,000 vehicles.
Leading that charge are the 2.0-liter, EcoBoost four-cylinder engines of the Ford Focus ST and Ford Escape. 160,000 of the 2013 and 2014 models have bad wiring harnesses that can disrupt the signals traveling to the powertrain control module. That, in turn, could lead to a check engine light, reduced power and stalling. Notably, Ford hasn't recalled any other vehicles that feature the 2.0 EcoBoost, such as the Fusion, Taurus or Explorer.
While the Focus ST and Escape constitute the vast majority of recalled vehicles, they aren't the only problem children in the Ford family. 1,300 Transit passenger vans from model year 2015 were recalled due to brake fluid leaks, while another 600 Transit cargo variants were recalled after Ford discovered the windowless sliding doors could come open in the event of a side-impact crash. Dealers will replace the sealing washers on the passenger variants and add a reinforcement plate on the cargo models, The Detroit News reports.
