1986 Mustang GT Convertible

Secon
d Owner, Original Paint, No Rust, Survivor Car


I bought the car 5 years ago from the original owner in North Carolina, where it spent it's entire life.  The car is umolested and even still had the factory air silencer when I bought it.  The body is dry and straight no dings or dents.   The Car Fax does not have any issues and the car has never been a wreck.  The paint is in excellent condition and has a few chips on the front of the hood and a small couple of stain marks on the front bumper (shown in the pictures).   There is one small hole in the convertible top on the passenger side, but other than that, the orginal top has no other defects and goes up and down without issue.  The interior is complete with no marks or stains.  Even the red piping on the driver's seat is in great condition and really does not show any wear. The engine runs great and does not burn or leak any oil.  Transmission and clutch are fine with no slipping or grinding.  Overall, the car is a blast to drive and not given me any issues.

Here is a list of what I have done to the car, since I have had it:
  • New Chome Pony Wheels with Nitto 450 tires <1000 miles
  • Tune-up - Plugs, wires, cap and rotor
  • Under drive pullies
  • K&N Filter
  • New interior carpet (found the build sheet)
  • A/C changed to R134a
  • All new cooling hoses
  • New front brakes (have rears that need to be put on)
  • Steeda short throw shifter with stock boot and MGWLTD shift knob

Less than 1000 of 1D Smoke colored convertibles were produced that year.  I looked for 4-5 years off and on to find one this clean.  Only reason that I am selling it is that I have too many toys and something has to go.  Not in a hurry to sell, so please no low ball offers.

All original parts included - wheels w/ tires, shifter, pullies & airbox

Car is for sale locally and reserve the right to cancel the auction at any time.

Happy bidding....

Ford board pushing Mulally for decision amidst fears story is drowning out other news

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

Automakers and their executives rarely like to divulge information regarding future goings on, but the board of directors at Ford sound like they're getting a little antsy about chief executive officer Alan Mulally and his plans for 2014.
According to Reuters, as news of Mulally's possible departure to Microsoft continues to swirl, Ford's board is looking to push the affable executive to make a decision about his future sooner rather than later. Apparently, the board is growing concerned that this will-he/won't-he drama may end up distracting the media from covering Ford's other big news events next year - items like the debut of key all-new products like the Mustang and F-150.
So far, the picture for Mulally's eventual successor remains fuzzy, but it's understood that the leading candidate remains the company's chief operating officer, Mark Fields. Just recently, we heard that Mulally will stay until the end of 2014, but a few months ago, Ford seemed open to the idea of him stepping down earlier than that.

Ford recalling 450,000 Fusion, Mercury Milan sedans

Tue, Nov 24 2015

Ford has announced a pair of recalls, and both are critical safety issues. The exponentially larger of the two recall campaigns affects over 450,000 Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan sedans manufactured at the Hermosillo plant between July 21, 2008, and March 4, 2011. The canister purge valve in the fuel tank could malfunction and could cause the top of the tank to crack and leak fuel. That could cause a fire, although Ford "is not aware of any accidents, injuries or fires" resulting from the issue. Affected vehicles will have their ECU software updated and their fuel tanks inspected for potential replacement. The company estimates there are 411,205 affected units in the United States (and its federalized territories), plus another 33,605 in Canada, and 7,055 in Mexico. The second recall affects 13 F-650 trucks. The column shifter's park position mechanism may fracture and let the truck roll away unexpectedly. Those 2016 models built in Ohio between July 29 and September 3, 2015 are all located in the US. Fixing the problem will require replacing the steering column and reconfiguring the instrument panel. FORD ISSUES TWO SAFETY RECALLS IN NORTH AMERICA DEARBORN, Mich., Nov. 23, 2015 – Ford Motor Company is issuing two safety recalls in North America. Ford is not aware of any accidents, injuries or fires related to these conditions. Details are as follows: Ford issues safety recall for certain 2010-2011 Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles in North America for potential fuel tank issue Ford Motor Company is issuing a safety recall for approximately 450,000 2010-2011 Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles for a potential issue with the fuel tank. Some of these vehicles might have a canister purge valve that does not work properly, causing internal pressure changes inside the fuel tank. Repeated pressure changes inside the tank could result in a crack on the top of the tank, possibly allowing fuel to leak. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can lead to a fire. Ford is not aware of any accidents, injuries or fires related to this condition. Affected vehicles include certain 2010-2011 Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles built at Hermosillo Assembly Plant from July 21, 2008 through March 4, 2011. There are a total of approximately 451,865 vehicles that might be affected in North America, including 411,205 vehicles in the United States and federalized territories, 33,605 in Canada and 7,055 in Mexico.

2016 Ford Explorer revealed with new 2.3-liter EcoBoost

Wed, 19 Nov 2014



A 2.3L EcoBoost four-cylinder takes over where the old 2.0 left off, making 270 hp and 300 lb-ft.
Right now, around 23 percent of all Ford vehicles sold in the United States is a utility vehicle. By 2020, Ford expects that figure to increase all the way to 29 percent. Put simply, SUVs and crossovers are very big business at Ford. So, when it comes time to update the Explorer, Ford's original sport utility vehicle, you can be sure that a whole heck of a lot of effort goes into the process.
