This car is being relisted because the winning bidder was Non-Responsive and Non-Paying.  Please, serious bidders only.

I am the original owner of this 1986 Mustang GT Convertible with 44,775.   The car has been stored in a heated garage every winter since 1986, and stored many summers , too! It has never seen snow and has NO rust.  Almost everything on the car is original.  The exceptions are listed below.  

The car runs great.  It is equipped with AC, PS, PB, PW, Power Top, 5-speed, cruise control, and remote trunk and gas release. Everything works with the exception of the AC.  That is a recent issue that I have not looked into yet.   It has the original AM/FM Cassette Radio, which works, but is pretty fuzzy. 

The paint and body on this GT are almost all original and nice.  One rear fender(passenger side), and the front fascia were repainted in 1990 because of  dings.  There are a few other blemishes and normal signs of wear on a car of this age.  The car is not perfect, but it is solid with no rust, and has been well loved and taken care of.

The convertible top will need to be replaced.  It is in fair to good shape and the car can be driven just like it is, but it is starting to rip and pull away.  New tops are available for several hundred dollars plus installation costs.  The boot is in great shape. 

The interior of the car is in very good shape.  Some issues are: the elastic on the pockets on the doors is stretched out, the rubber seals on the windows are dry and cracked, and some of the plastic tips on the heat/cool levers on the dash are cracked and broken.

The Mustang has several non-original additions.  The stick shift handle is from a turbo Mustang.  I do not have the original handle.  The tail lights are from an SVO mustang.  They are the same as the original tail lights with the exception of the black horizontal lines.  I do not have the original tail lights.  The wheels on the car are from a  1988 Mustang.  I do have the original 10-hole wheels and will include them with the car.

What a fun car to drive!  This is a very solid original car from the original owner.   

I have included a picture of the window sticker that came on the car. 

Payable by cash, Cashier's check, or Bank Transfer. 

Sold as is with no warranties(written, oral, or implied).

Car will  be released upon receipt of cash, or verification that the money has been transferred.

Car can be picked up in Northville, Michigan, or buyer may arrange shipment at their expense.

Gimp Pimp and Aqua Volvo at 24 Hours of LeMons | Car Club USA

Tue, Mar 22 2016

Car Club USA heads to Sonoma, CA where the Gimp Pimp Cadillac and Aqua Volvo will take on all the crazy, sub-$500 competition at the 24 Hours of LeMons endurance race. "Over the last 30 years, car racing has gotten extremely serious and extremely expensive and it just seemed like there was a real need to make it accessible again," said LeMons founder Jay Lamm. The result is a series of endurance races across the US and Australia where all you need to join the fun is a junky car and some basic safety equipment. "It's just fun, compared to pro racing," said Wendy Epstein, driver of a 1979 Volvo 242 in bright "Aqua Volvo" livery. "24 Hours of LeMons is a form of racing that is designed to be cheap and easy, and anybody can do it," said Bill Manfroy, driver of the Gimp Pimp, a 1996 Cadillac SLS with some important modifications. "Part of what makes the Gimp Pimp Cadillac so special is that it does have hand controls, so it gives access to people like me that ordinarily get to race." "Which makes it perfect for LeMons." Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures.

2016 Cadillac ATS-V brandishes 450 horses and 6-speed manual

Tue, 11 Nov 2014

Details about the hotly anticipated 2016 Cadillac ATS-V are tumbling out, and they look to be everything we could ask for in a high-performance Caddy coupe.
According to Road & Track, the ATS-V will use a version of the twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V6 from the CTS Vsport, but the wick will be turned up to 450 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque. In glorious news for driving enthusiasts everywhere, that potent mill will be available with either a six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic.
According to R&T, the engine has a heap of high-performance tech to let it make the extra ponies, including titanium connecting rods, two water-to-air intercoolers, titanium turbines for the turbos and an additional radiator dedicated to cooling the gearbox and electronically locking differential. Keeping it all planted are a set of Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires, and a suspension with 50 percent more roll stiffness.

GM recalling 2013 Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac SRX over transmission software

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued recalls for the 2013 Buick LaCrosse and 2013 Cadillac SRX due to a problem with the software for the transmission controller. On about 27,000 SRX and LaCrosse models, the transmission could accidentally be shifted to Sport mode, which would reduce the amount of engine braking drivers experience.
NHTSA says this could increase the risk of a crash, but, fortunately, the required fix is simply an update to the software.
While we're on the subject of General Motors vehicle recalls, a small number (48) of compressed natural gas versions of the 2011 Chevrolet Express are also being recalled for a potential risk of fire or explosion. Yikes. Both official recall notices are posted below.
