For Sale: 1988 Ford Mustang in Concord, North Carolina

This 1988 Ford Mustang LX Convertible has the premium look of a cool cruising convertible. And with a great color combo, A/C interior, and overdrive transmission, it has been built to truly be a great anywhere/anytime classic.

The factory-correct Medium Cabernet Red paint has the boldness of red with an added hint of dark sophistication. And that's the right attitude because being an LX car means it has a bit more sophistication to it. So while you may use the value price to add some upgrades or personalize this pony car, it already has a cool style. Plus, there are nice classic details, like the luggage rack and 15-inch factory wheels. And we like how the white pinstripe makes the white convertible top look even more premium and coordinated.

Not only does the pinstripe nicely accent the roof color, but also the interior white, too. Plus, the red accenting is the cherry on top of this coordinated and premium style. The package remains quite stock and preserved, including the dual-spoke steering wheel and the original full gauge panel with large speedo and tach. This is loaded with the best features, like cruise control, a center console, and an upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo. The factory air conditioning was upgraded to cold-blowing modern R134a refrigerant, which is always welcomed in a convertible. Speaking of drop-tops, the power windows and a power convertible top let you stay in the driver's seat when you want to fully open this one up to the world.

Under the hood is the 2.3-liter four-cylinder motor. This is a fuel-injected unit, and so it starts, runs, and drives, with the kind of modern ability you want in a true cruiser. Plus, since this was the kind of motor that found its way into the SVO coupes and turbo T-birds of the era we can't help but think about the potential to have some modern turbocharged fun with this well-priced convertible. Regardless of how you choose to enjoy this convertible, it has the right anytime driving features, including power steering, power brakes, front discs, and a four-speed automatic transmission with highway-ready overdrive.

This is a loaded drop-top cruiser with a ton of fun built right in. So don't miss this affordable convertible Mustang. Call now!
