For Sale: 1985 Ford Mustang in O'Fallon, Illinois

Gateway Classic Cars of St. Louis is proud to digitally present this 1985 Ford Mustang GT Convertible.By the mid-1980s, the Mustang had found its second wind. After surviving the fuel-crisis years, Ford's 5.0-liter GT ushered in a new performance renaissance-one built not just on horsepower, but attitude. This was the era of cassette tapes, neon nights, and V8-powered freedom, and the Mustang GT Convertible sat right at the center of it.Finished in classic white over a black interior, this Mustang carries the unmistakable Fox-body proportions that helped redefine American performance for a new generation. With the top down, it delivers the full experience these cars were meant to provide-open air, unmistakable exhaust note, and a connection to the road that modern cars often filter away.Power comes from Ford's legendary 5.0L V8, paired with an automatic transmission that makes this GT easy to enjoy whether cruising through town or settling into a relaxed highway drive. This drivetrain combination was a cornerstone of the Mustang's resurgence, offering accessible performance with everyday usability.Inside, the black interior provides a clean, purposeful cockpit. Comfort features like air conditioning, power windows, power steering, and power brakes make this Mustang far more than a weekend toy-it's a car you can genuinely enjoy driving. The automatic convertible top adds another layer of versatility, transforming the car at the push of a button and reinforcing the Mustang's dual personality as both cruiser and performance icon.Today, Fox-body Mustangs-especially GT convertibles-are increasingly recognized for their cultural impact and driving character. They represent a turning point in American performance, when horsepower came back with confidence and style followed close behind.This 1985 Ford Mustang GT Convertible isn't just a nostalgic throwback-it's a rolling reminder of when performance made a comeback and driving felt personal again.This vehicle can be seen in detail including 100+ HD pictures and an HD video at gatewayclassiccars.com.
