I bought this Mustang from the second owner in 2001, I have owned this car for most of my adult life. As a military member, I have moved a great deal and have trailered and garaged this car with me for many year. I purchased a new vehicle and have decided to sell my pride and joy. Here are some details. Professionally repainted the original black color in 2004, completely stripped and block sanded. I recall that I spent about $4k on the paint job and it still looks amazing after ten years! I rate it at 8.5/10. In 2011 I invested a great deal in the car, changing out a Windsor based engine for the new for the year 2011 Coyote crate engine and the Magnum T56 transmission. I took the time to replace the radiator support, install new engine bay panels that were sleek, a new exhaust system, radiator, a complete restoration of all the exterior rubber trim and weatherstrip on the car, completely new interior. New quarterwindows, sunroof hardware/seals, new headlights, new factory emblems. The interior includes new carpet, seats, floormats, door panels, and rear seat delete. Does not have the HVAC for heating/A/C. Only 2500 miles on the car since the complete swap. In terms of function and operation, this is a 2011 Mustang in a Fox body wrapper.

Weighs 3070lbs without driver, 1/4 tank gas Over $30k invested I pulled a carfax and it revealed "Salvage" on the vehicle history due to a break-in in 2001. A driver's window was broken out and I replaced it, engine parts were stolen from an engine stand in front of the car but because the break-in occurred at a Auto Hobby Shop (garage) with a crate engine being installed at the time and some of the engine components were stolen, the combined value of the $3k engine was worth more than the vehicle (at the time) so the insurance company issued me a total loss check and I "retained salvage". The car has never been in an accident, and I'm more than happy to take close up pictures of every body panel's "VIN sticker" showing that no panel (except the aftermarket hood) was ever replaced. I have a clean Montana title, it appears that the break-in that occurred in CA never communicated back to Montana. Up until pulling the carfax a week ago I never thought twice about the title history as it was purely administrative, so the carfax is dirty, the title is clean, and the car is exceptional. Please feel free to ask me more about this, I have owned this car for 13+ years and know it front and back. I would be skeptical too as a buyer, all I can say is the car is exceptional and that I can take pictures/videos for serious buyers who are skeptical about the quality of the car. I can report with certainty that no title issues will be found when transferring ownership, just the carfax history. The difference between a dirty carfax and clean title was not deliberate or "title washing" by any means, for the last ten years I suspected it might be the case due to the break-in/payoff, but I just never confirmed it. I hope to disclose this anomaly in full so as to assure the buyer that there are no surprises with this car and that the history is what it is. Please let me know if you have any questions. I'm an active duty officer in the Marines (14 years) and I will document the full ownership of this car and I have nothing to gain (and everything to lose) by passing off/profiting by selling something under false pretenses. I hope that clarifies the title history, please ask me more. Build thread LOTS of pictures! http://www.theturboforums.com/threads/359842-1990-GT-Coyote-swap
