For Sale: 1985 Ford Mustang in Concord, North Carolina

For those who love Mustang history, the 1985 car is a pivotal year. The styling was upgraded to be more aggressive, and if you had a GT like this, the V8 was actually more aggressive with a 20 percent jump in V8 power. It's the car that re-ignited the power-pony wars, and so we're excited to see such a well-preserved actual mileage example like this. It gets the big things right like the Canyon Red paint is the factory application, the five-speed is truly sought-after, and the interior has the plush look of garage-kept care. Plus, you'll love the little things that get lost on other cars like the Marchal fog lights or the sporty red piping on the seats. And there's really something magical about the first impression when a car looks this vintage. You see it in the way the GT stripes combine with the other dark elements, or how the T-tops just open you up to the world. So take some extra time digging into the details of a well-preserved 5.0 that also loves to be enjoyed

While this is an exceptionally preserved car, it also has the right well-integrated upgrades that make it a better driver. For example. the ROH wheels look similar to some of the alloys you could get on a Fox body, but the larger 17-inch size means you get to fit better/grippy modern tires. The upgraded exhaust lets you better hear the Five-Oh in all its glory. And the air conditioning is blowing cold with modern R134a refrigerant, which makes it so much nicer to take out the T-tops on a sunny summer day. Starting to get the full picture? This is a preserved and significant classic Mustang that also wants you to remember that a pony car is the most fun when it's galloping. So if you've been looking for a true classic that also knows how to have fun on those "special days" that are right to get away from it all, this T-top stick-shift GT is the only way to go. Don't miss this Mustang. Call today!!!
