1989 (25th Anniversary Edition) Ford Mustang Lx, 5.0 Liter, No Rust, New Paint on 2040-cars
Wallingford, Connecticut, United States

For Sale I have a 1989 (25th Anniversary Edition)
Ford Mustang LX, 5.0 Liter. I purchased
this car in 2007 and have driven it very little. I bought the car from an adult and am one
myself. It was never beat up. I bought the car because it had NO turbo,
nitrous or supercharger. The car was and
still is all naturally aspirated. It
came with GT40 Intake, Headers, beefed up Injectors, MSD, improved air intake
and throttle body. It took me three
years to find a clean example of the car that wasn’t heavy beat on, modified or
rusted. This car is all original with
some tasteful virtually unseen upgrades. The car also has Cobra Rims; Newer Nito tires with 98% tread
left, short shifter, and comfortable racing seats. When I bought it I had an auto body shop cut out what little
rust was there, replace the metal and paint the car including all exterior
moldings. I spent $4,500 on this
project. The paint is 100% but they did
put on too much clear coat. A light wet
sanding may help but isn’t necessary. This is a list of some of the additional fixes / new parts
on the car: Battery Tray, Screw Kit, Distributor Cap, Spark Plug Set, Fuel
Filter, Plugs, Temp Sensor, Heater Core, Door Hinge Set, Prop Rod Clip,
Flashers, Battery Hold Down, Key Ring, Radiator Overflow Tank, Chrome Cap, Fan,
Hose Kit, Radiator Overflow Tank Cap, Ashtray Drink Holder, H-Pipe w/ Cats
2.5" 79/93 5.0L w/ Shorties (BBK), Flow Master Exhaust System, Headlight
Assembly, Silicone, Hatch Hinge, Weather Strip, Hood Pins, Door Hinge Pin and
Bushings, Car Cover, Solenoid, Battery Cables, and New Starter. This car was maintained with an open checkbook. If something broke, I fixed it. The car has one problem I have not had the
time to fix. Something is draining the
battery. I believe it is the driverside
sun visor. It has a light that comes on
when you open the mirror. The fabric has
stretched a bit over the years and I believe in the closed position, the light
is remaining on. I have installed a battery
terminal kill kit to temporarily fix the problem. Other than that everything is in perfect
running order. A couple of things to consider if you want this car. 1.
The title is “True Mileage Unknown”. The odometer reads 60k+ and I have no reason
to believe it’s not accurate. The
odometers in these cars only go to 99,999 and then they reset back to 0. It is possible that the car has 160k but I
don’t believe it to be. If you drive the
car, you’ll feel how tight everything is.
The car idles perfectly and is responsive and very strong. I maybe put a couple of hundred miles a year
on it. I hardly ever drive it and that’s
why I am selling it. 2.
The air conditioner has been removed and the
pulley’s have been changed out to increase horsepower. This is a common cheap power upgrade to those
of you familiar with these cars. It can
be reinstalled but I do not have the parts to do so. That’s it. I can’t
express to you how well this car drives.
It would make the perfect car for any fan of the fox body mustangs. On Nov-12-13 at 20:50:04 PST, seller added the following information:
Please Note: One of the eBay buyers pointed out that the vehicle report clearly states the mileage to be 160,000. I can not and will not argue the report. The title does say "True Mileage Unknown". After reading the report, I can't understand why buts that's what it says. I left the original ad and just added this note instead of changing it to not confuse or mislead anyone.

Top torque-to-weight ratios under $100k, $50k and $25k
Tue, 07 Oct 2014Horsepower may steal a lot of headlines, but the always-more-complex torque figure is often a critical one for both the workingman and the motoring playboy. The measure of rotational force represents the twist that can liquefy one's tires or haul one's horse trailer. Good stuff.
It follows then, that as with the horsepower-to-weight list that we assembled for you a few months ago, a list of cars that offer the most pound-feet with the fewest pounds to carry, is an interesting one to break down. Sure, there's a big difference in how the torque is applied from a turbocharged six-cylinder in a Swedish luxury sedan and a massive heavy-duty truck's turbo-diesel. But being the car/stat geeks that we are, we think it's kinda neat that those two vehicles rank near each other where torque and weight intersect.
As with the horsepower list, we've given you figures as pounds per every one pound-foot. Again broken down into broad price categories, we've got a mixed bag of 2014 and 2015 models here, too. Every effort has been made to select the most up-to-date prices and specs, and we've also to omitted some '14 cars that won't be re-upped after the ongoing yearly changeover.
FBI investigating recently fired Ford engineer for espionage
Fri, 25 Jul 2014Agents of the FBI are investigating a potential case of industrial espionage involving a recently fired Ford employee. The Dearborn, MI-based manufacturer had its world headquarters searched by FBI agents on July 11, and according to The Detroit News, had warrants to seize recording devices handed over to Ford by Sharon Leach, a now-former Ford engineer.
Leach, who had spent 17 years with the Blue Oval, was fired last month, after Ford Security relieved her of eight Sansa listening devices. The FBI got involved shortly after her dismissal, searching her home on June 20 and seizing some two dozen items, including computers, jump drives and financial records, according to warrants obtained by The News.
Ford has remained quiet on the matter, with spokeswoman Susan Krusel confirming that the automaker was working with the FBI as part of a "joint investigation," while declining to provide any additional details.
FCA, Ford idle plants due to semiconductor shortage
Fri, Jan 8 2021DETROIT (Reuters) - Ford and FCA will become the latest automakers to idle production facilities due to a semiconductor shortage. Ford's Louisville Assembly Plant in Kentucky will idle for a week, borrowing a down period from later in the year to compensate. Per Automotive News, FCA is idling its Brampton facility in Ontario, Canada, and one other site which has not yet been identified. Louisville Assembly is the production site for the Ford Escape and Lincoln Corsair SUVs; Brampton Assembly produces the Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Dodge Challenger for FCA. A Ford spokeswoman, who declined to identify the semiconductor supplier, confirmed the temporary shutdown to Reuters. In this, FCA and Ford join Nissan and potentially Honda in idling production in the wake of the shortage, which also hit Volkswagen late last year. The shortages are being blamed on consumer demand for silicon after production slowdowns resulting from the coronavirus pandemic. Volkswagen said it had to adjust production schedules in China, Europe and North America to compensate. Nissan said it planned to reduce production of the Note, a hybrid electric car, at its Oppama Plant in Kanagawa prefecture, Japan, but did not give details of the scale of the output cut. The Nikkei newspaper reported that Nissan would slash its Note production at Oppama to about 5,000 units in January, from an initially planned 15,000 units. "A global shortage of semiconductors has affected parts procurement in the auto sector. As a result of this shortage, the Oppama Plant in Japan will adjust production in January, reducing production of the Nissan NOTE," Nissan said in a statement.
