An exceptionally preserved, highly documented example of Ford's
technological tour de force from the 1980s. This 1985 Mustang SVO
is a collector-grade time capsule showing just 78,169 original,
fully verified miles. The SVO wasn't just a straight-line muscle
car; it was built to compete with European sports cars, featuring a
turbocharged 2.3 inline-four, Koni adjustable suspension,
four-wheel disc brakes, and a unique biplane rear spoiler. Finding
one today is rare; finding one with this level of paperwork is
nearly impossible. The Documentation (The Holy Grail) This car
comes with a mountain of paperwork proving its history, provenance,
and meticulous care from day one: Elite Marti Report: Confirming
its exact factory specifications, production dates, and rare option
combinations. Complete Service History: A massive binder containing
all service records and receipts stretching back decades. Original
Sales Lit: Includes original dealership brochures, owner's manuals,
and SVO-specific literature. Condition & Specifications Mileage:
78,169 original, documented miles. Engine: 2.3 Turbocharged &
Intercooled 4-Cylinder (running beautifully, builds boost
smoothly). Transmission: 5-speed manual with the factory Hurst
shifter. Interior: SVO-specific sport seats with inflatable lumbar
support in excellent condition. The unique SVO steering wheel/plus
a new sporty aftermarket and leather-wrapped shift knob remain
intact. Exterior: Distinctive SVO functional hood scoop,
aerodynamic front fascia, and the iconic dual-wing rear spoiler are
all in fantastic shape. Mechanical & Drive This SVO has been
enthusiast-owned and properly maintained. It starts up immediately,
idles smoothly, and handles tightly thanks to the factory-spec
suspension setup. The unique factory 16-inch directional aluminum
wheels are wrapped in fresh rubber.?
