Up for Sale is a 1989 Ford Mustang GT. 5.0L Automatic. A little over 89,000 miles. 25th Anniversary Edition. Always garage kept, mostly stock. Very good condition, fun and fast.

I did a lot of work on the car right after I got it. Roughly 9 years ago.

Aftermarket Konig Rims (4 lug) with Kumho Tires. Tires are in good shape, but not new. Original rims will come with the vehicle. 

Added long headers and a full Dynomax Cat-back Exhaust.

AOD Transmission was replaced with a brand new AOD transmission with Shift Kit and additional clutch plates.

Re-Painted the original color, the old paint was really dull.

Sony Explode CD player w/ 2 MTX 10" Subs.

Top goes up and down easily.

New water pump last year.

Again, this car is 25 years old now.

A few items I want to point out. The front seats are a little worn, but can be re-covered, they are easily available on-line.

The top will need to be replaced at some point. The stitching below the rear window is giving out (SEE PIC) and there is a small pucture hole in the top from parking lot vandalism. The last time I drove it in the rain, it did not leak.

There is also a small spot coming through above the rear wheel. The shop that painted the car was supposed to repair this when painting it, but did not. (SEE PIC)

The rear main seal has started to leak, probably from sitting and not being driven. Can be driven as is, just need to keep an eye on the oil level and top off once in a while. 

Again, this car is in very good condition overall. These are just minor items, but I wanted to point them out.

I have only driven this car like a 100 miles in the last 6 years. It needs to get driven, that's the only reason I want to sell it. Let someone else it enjoy it now.

I require a $500 non-refundable deposit. Full payment within 7 days by certified check or cash.

The car will not leave until paid in full and clear.

The buyer is reponsible for all shipping.

There is no warranty implied or expressed. Car is sold 'as is'.

Please contact me if you would like to come inspect the vehicle.

Ford announces two recalls, 442k vehicles affected in North America

Wed, May 27 2015

Ford is announcing two recalls for North American that affect a total of 442,300 vehicles and multiple model lines. The larger campaign covers the possibility of electric power steering systems that can fail in the 2011-2013 Ford Flex, Taurus, Lincoln MKS, and MKT; the 2011-2012 Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ; and the 2011 Mercury Milan. This recall affects 422,814 vehicles in North America, including 393,622 in the United States, 25,195 in Canada, and 3,997 in Mexico. According to the company, an intermittent electrical connection can cause the power steering to cut out, although manual steering would still work. Ford knows of four minor accidents from this issue, but there are no injuries. Depending on trouble codes from the vehicle, dealers will either upgrade software for the power steering control module or replace the steering gear. The second recall covers 19,486 examples of the 2015 Ford Mustang with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost turbocharged four-cylinder engine with a production date between February 14, 2014, and February 10, 2015 at the Flat Rock Assembly Plant. Specifically, there are 19,095 of these in the US and 391 in Canada. These pony cars can show elevated underbody temperatures, which can lead to degradation of the fuel tank, fuel vapor lines, and parking brake cable seals. There are no reports of accidents, injuries or fires from this, though. To fix things, dealers will install a better-insulated fuel tank shield, add thermal patches around the tank and parking brake cable, and put thermal wraps around the fuel vapor lines. You can read the specific build dates and locations for the models affected by the power steering issue in Ford's press release below the video.

Americans will get a four-cylinder Ford Mustang after all? [w/poll]

Sat, 09 Mar 2013

Ask and you shall receive. Remember that previous report suggesting that the 2015 Ford Mustang getting a four-cylinder EcoBoost engine, and that it would be sold in Europe only and not the United States? Well, according to Road & Track, the rumor is only partially true - The Mustang will get the engine, but it is indeed coming to America.
Additionally, according to RT, the 3.7-liter V6 will continue to serve as the base engine, and since it offers up a stout 305 horsepower in its current form, it's likely that the 2.3-liter four-cylinder EcoBoost will produce a bit more than that. At the top of the range, the Mustang GT will continue to soldier on with a V8 engine, which should continue to send over 400 horsepower to the rear wheels.
Finally, while we agree 100 percent with RT's heartfelt request for a paddle-shift automatic, we certainly expect that the EcoBoost 'Stang will be offered with a manual transmission as standard equipment. This is a Mustang, after all...

Martini Mustang is a 'what if moment' gone right

Wed, 23 Oct 2013

Feast your eyes on a masterpiece. This is Steve Strope's Ford Mustang in the classic fastback bodystyle, and as you'll notice, it sports the signature colors of Martini Racing, a livery that's as legendary as any Gulf Racing-styled car. But the red, white and blues of the Martini stripe down this Mustang's middle tell only a very small part of the story, in the latest video from Petrolicious.
What would you guess is under the hood? A 289-cubic-inch V8? Maybe a 302, or some absurd Ford crate engine? Maybe Strope went all Tokyo Drift - he's actually responsible for the "Hammer" Plymouth Satellite driven by Vin Diesel at the end of the movie - and found an RB26DETT to drop into the pony car? You'd be wrong on all counts.
This mad, mad man somehow finagled a Ford-Lotus engine from a 1966 Indianapolis 500 car into the Mustang's engine bay. Yes, a Mustang with an engine designed for a 160-mile-per-hour, open-wheel racecar. That's like someone in 40 years dropping McLaren's 2.4-liter V8 from the MP4-28 into a Scion FR-S. It'd just make a monster.
