1985 Mustang GT 114,000 original miles Adult Owned Here is my babied Oxford White 1985 Mustang GT 5.0L 5Spd. with PW, PL, CC and A/C (all working). I am the third owner and this was originally a California Car and is rust free. I primarily drove this car summers only and put over 12,000 miles on it this last summer. Car runs and drives excellent, I just drove it 750 miles in the middles of the night to visit my parents and it performed flawlessly. I have never had any issues with this car, mechanically or otherwise. I have extensively upgraded the car to more modern specifications i.e. brakes, exhaust, suspension, differential, rims, tires, fuel system, cooling system and more. Everything works but the low windshield washer fluid indicator!I have over $10,000 invested in this car (just in parts), so trust me you’re getting a helluva deal! Please Check my break Down out below and my FAQ before you send me any Questions, Please! Here is a breakdown of the car and the condition of its individual components. All non-stock replacement parts (possibly listed as NEW) were installed at 102,200 Miles and have roughly 12,000 miles on them.) Engine 5.0l 302 ci original hydraulic roller cam engine. No internal modifications and original to the car. Autolite Platinum plugs installed and gapped to .044 and timing is set to 12 BTDC. Still rocking the stock ignition and an MSD cap/rotor with oem style wires Burns no oil/uses no oil; I change it ever 3500 miles with Ford Semi-Synthetic 10w30 Transmission Original Clutch still holding strong and solid Shifts Smooth (for a World class 5spd) and makes no noise and works perfectly like it should New Polyurethane transmission mount bushing installed. Oil replaced with Royal Purple Synthetic Pro 5.0 Tower of Power installed with Hurst shift lever and knob. New gasket and boot to the body to prevent noise and smells. Exterior of the Car Car looks great in person and really only shows its age when you get on top of it. The majority of the car is all original Paint; the window trim was repainted by the previous when he had the Cervini hood installed. The Cervini Hood looks good but doesn’t 100% match the color on the rest of the car, and the color match to the front fenders throws them off color a little bit. The paint is wearing thin anywhere on the leading edge of sharp body lines, Car has door dings, rock chips, and other misc. very minor body issues. No wrecks or any other major issues, car drives straight as an arrow, I can nail the gas with my hands off the wheel and then slam on the brakes and it goes perfectly straight. Car looks more like the condition of a 7 year old car rather than a 26 year old. Windshield has a few chips (filled) and is original. Exterior headlights are Sylvania Performance Halogens, and since I installed the new 130 amp alternator they really work a Helluvalot better than with the stock charging system. Marchal fog lights with the black cats on the glass and stock Ford Black fog light covers included. Interior Interior is very original the driver seat has a small tear from wear on the LH outer seat bun and on the LH outer seat back. Also small slice on back, mostly not visible except to rear passengers. Stock OEM style seat covers are easily sourced from most if not all the major fox parts houses. Both front seatbelts have chafing wear the seatbelt sits in the plastic, when retracted.The rear upright seat latch bezel on the back of the rear seats are cracked and broken but not normally visible and doesnt affect function. Overall the rest of the interior is nice and freshly cleaned. Headliner has been replaced and installed on stock roof cardboard. AM/FM Cassette Ford will give my monster Cassette to IPod adapter with car. All Speakers replaced with new kicker OEM size/style. New Shifter Boot installed. Saleen style driver side relief pedal installed.

FAQ Q: Will this mustang make it XXXXX amount of miles? A: I don’t know how you drive or if you’re planning to recreate a Smokey and the bandit movie… But I wouldn’t hesitate to jump in it and drive across country with my five year old son sitting next to me, and I have done that twice this summer (over 2000 miles)! Q: Why did you modify this poor mustang? A: The brakes and performance of the stock carburetor left something to be desired, Okay A LOT.. I wanted to be able to drive the car anywhere and feel completely comfortable. Q: Why are you selling this Beautiful mustang? A: I am 33 years old, recently divorced and going back to school to get my graduate degree. I am not working as a result and can’t justify paying over $150 a month for storage, insurance, and properly maintaining a car in an environment that goes from -20 to 115 degrees in the course of a normal year. Q: Will you pick me up at the airport? A: Which Airport? I can only pick you up at the Beaumont TX. Airport or the Lake Charles, La. Airport and not after January 7th and not until the vehicle is paid for in full. Q: Will you accept Trades? A: NO! Q: Is the Car fast? A: Yes but I really don’t get on it or beat it up and it has never been to a track, I bought it as a classic daily driver not as a track car. Q: What kind of mileage do you get? A: I see mileage between 17-25 depending on road conditions and where I am driving city/highway/hills etc.. Q: Will you take my Wife, child, dog, cat or XXXXX in trade?

Q: Why do you require a deposit? A: Since my first vehicle sale on eBay in 1999 I have found that people are flaky and are more likely to follow through with a deal if they have something to lose. Q: Who put all the work into this mustang? A: I did all the work except for mounting the tires, I have multiple mechanic certificates and was an Aviation mechanic for over 10 years, I can answer any and all questions about the car.
