For Sale: 1988 Ford Mustang GT in Concord, North Carolina

This is one for Mustang lovers, because this 1988 Ford Mustang GT is the perfect mix of cool original features with all the right upgrades. So you keep the awesome red on red appearance, and by the sound of it, there's plenty more power churning out of the fuel-injected 5.0 block.


Take some time to look over this one, because you know there's some serious love and devotion to a car when the factory-correct red still has the kind of hard shine that makes the car grab attention in the sunlight. It's hard to find an unmolested example like this today because Mustang GTs were so potent when new that it was tough to resist modifying these to show off the king of the streets. It's this rare loyalty to originality that gets you a coupe with complete panels that still fit so well, doors that close with confidence, and complete trim right down to the large integrated rear spoiler. One piece that couldn't resist upgrading is the new set of wheels. Not only do those alloys mean an upgrade to a five-lug design, but also because they still came from the Mustang family, this coupe looks distinctive while still staying loyal to the big blue oval.


The 1988 Mustangs also offered cool plaid upholstery that coordinated nicely with the red exterior while still being a standout on its own. These bucket seats have real bolstering to make long trips vastly more comfortable and supportive than an older vintage vehicle. Take some time to appreciate how well all the elements of the interior are preserved, including the door panels, carpeting, dash, center console, and even the retractable cover over the rear hatch. It's only been upgraded in the right places like a performance shifter, aluminum pedals, and the new AM/FM/CD stereo. Plus, this coupe is already loaded with factory options such as power windows, power locks, cruise control, power seats, and provisions for air conditioning.


One look at the engine bay, and you know there was a solid investment in the fuel-injected 5.0-liter V8. These motor are famous for being able to take plenty of go-fast components, so it has been enhanced with GT40-P heads, an Edelbrock intake, a Ford Motorsports E303 camshaft, and roller rockers. This upgraded V8 singes its superior tune through a set of performance headers that feed the X-pipe Flowmaster dual exhaust with Spin Tech box-type mufflers – oh yeah, it sounds mean! The five-speed manual transmission means you have complete control over this performance V8. On the road, thick sway bars front and rear, power steering, front disc brakes, and the modern grip of Cooper Zeon tires make this a complete performance machine with terrific road manners.


Complete with an upgraded 140 MPH speedometer (there's only 29,588 miles total on this car), this is the most affordable way to get a great looking, low-mileage performance Fox body Mustang. So don't wait too long because this deal is obviously going quickly. Call today!!
