Vehicle Description
The Fox-body Mustang is one of the most iconic muscle cars ever
built, and it conjures up rosy images of '80s performance like
nearly no other car from that era. This 1988 Ford Mustang GT
Convertible is precisely the reason why, as it combines the classic
Ford V8 under the hood with quintessentially-80s style. Powered by
the legendary 5.0-liter, 302 C.I. "Windsor" V8 that breathes
through multi-port electronic fuel injection, this '88 Mustang GT
makes for one quick cruiser. Torque is put to the pavement through
a 5-speed manual transmission, which not only is good for quick
shifting but is also good for plenty of smiles behind the wheel.
The correct "1C"-code black paint covers this Mustang's straight
bodylines, a good driver's-quality paintjob that is complimented by
the gray "MUSTANG GT" side moldings. Opening the twin doors reveals
a beautifully-original interior, with plaid-patterned comfy cloth &
vinyl bucket seats as well as tons of power options and a full
center console. This Mustang GT came from the factory fully-loaded,
with options including power steering, power brakes, front disc
brakes, factory A/C, a power convertible top, power windows, power
mirrors, power locks, power seats with lumbar support, factory
gauges & tachometer, a tilt steering column, cruise control, an
updated AM/FM/MP3 stereo, and a sweet-sounding dual exhaust system.
The car rides on the original 15" Mustang GT "Turbine" wheels over
blackwall tires for an appearance straight out of 1988! This '88
Mustang GT runs and drives down the highway wonderfully, and with
that 5-speed manual transmission, you're in for a lot of fun behind
the wheel. It's ready to go at the turn of a key, and we think it
would look great in your driveway.
