The 1986 Mustang GT sits at a unique crossroads in Fox Body
history. It was the first year Ford fitted the 5.0 liter V8 with
multiport fuel injection, and it was also the last year of the four
headlight front end before Ford redesigned the nose entirely for
1987. That combination of first and last makes the 1986 GT one of
the most collectible years in the Fox Body lineup, and this one has
been built into something considerably more serious than it left
the factory. Finished in Silver Metallic with a dark grey hood
stripe and dark grey accents, it looks exactly the part.
Under the hood the 5.0 liter V8 has been professionally
supercharged with a Vortech V-1 centrifugal supercharger, installed
by Alternative Auto Performance in Mt. Clemens, Michigan.
Supporting the power upgrade are 36 pound injectors, a 65mm
throttle body, a March pulley system, an aluminum radiator kit,
headers, dual exhaust, a new Holley fuel pump and fuel lines, and
new fuel rails. This is a complete, properly supported power build
done by a known shop, not a backyard project. The Pro 5.0 long
handle shifter kit keeps the driver connected to every gear change,
and the Baer four wheel brake system gives it the stopping power to
match what the engine can do.
Inside, the grey cloth interior is clean with red piping on the
seats that pops nicely against the silver exterior. A black leather
steering wheel, dark grey accents, and boost and fuel gauges
mounted on the A pillar give the cabin a purposeful, driver-focused
feel. Manual windows are correct for a car built and driven like
this one.
The Fox Body platform has one of the most active and well-supported
aftermarket communities of any car in history. Parts are abundant,
knowledge is everywhere, and builders have been extracting serious
performance from this chassis for over 40 years. A professionally
supercharged 1986 GT in a clean Silver Metallic with the four-eye
front end intact is exactly the kind of Fox Body that enthusiasts
and collectors both pay attention to.
