1988 Ford Mustang LX Description

For sale is my 1988 Ford Mustang LX 5.0 Triple White Convertible. 77,000 Original Miles and I am the second owner. Always garaged and never driven in the rain. They only made 1476 of these in 1988 and I am sure that most of them do not look like this. The paint is original and in great shape for being over 30 years old. Since I have owned it I have added a new top, new rims and tires, cold air induction, MSD Coil, new battery and a new stereo. I have the original stereo and air cleaner. Even the spare tire is original. The leather seats are in great shape and have electric lumbar. I am in no hurry to sell her. I don't drive her as much as I want to and she sits in the garage under the car cover. The previous owner had done a lot of upgrades to the suspension and other items. It would not take much to get this car set up for track racing. Below are a list of items that have been done.Suspension has been upgraded with a Maximum Motorsports system that includes:
Full length sub-frame connectors.Strut tower brace.H&R Progressive Sport springs.Tokico Premium Gas struts & shocks.K-member brace.Panhard bar.Polyurethane bushings.Caster-camber adjustment plates.Ford Racing Control Arms.
Exhaust system has been upgraded with:
BBK 1-5/8" Shorty Headers.Flowmaster "American Thunder" System #17213 2-1/2" Mandrel-bent Cat-backs and Flowmaster Mufflers.
Transmission upgraded with:
Maximum Motorsports MMCL-6 clutch quadrant.Maximum Motorsports MMCL-3 clutch firewall adjuster.King Cobra clutch (less than 7000 miles)Ford Racing M-7000 T-5 "World Class" transmission kit.Ford Racing M4210B Differential Rebuiild kit.Ford Racing 3.55:1 Differential Ring & Pinion.
The brakes have stainless steel hoses, Maximum Motorsports Stainless Steel Front Brake caliper sleeves, and Hawk high-performance front brake pads.
Numerous other items replaced to maintain the car. Mostly used OEM parts (new headlights - the old ones were cloudy, windshield) or good quality replacements from Late Model Restoration (plastic interior trim parts, radiator overflow tank), Brothers Performance (155lph fuel pump), or similar sources.
The car is fast, and handles very well with the suspension upgrades. The engine is rated 225HP stock, but can quite easily exceed 400HP with a few modifications. Most people reading this ad will know this. Receipts and documentation for repairs and upgrades will go to the new buyer. The original Owner's Manual, embossed Owner's Card, and window stickers also go with the car. The only thing that will be need to addressed buy the new owner is that the front tires rub on the inner fender well when you make a sharp turn. When I purchased the tires and wheels I got all the same size all around and I should have gotten a smaller size front wheel and tires. I have learned to drive it without any problem. Right now it has a non op on it because I don't drive it. It will also need to be smoged. I have the paperwork from the last smog test and it passed with no problems.
I will help with out of state shipping but it is up to the buyer to set up the shipping details on their end. $1000 Dollar deposit due within 24 hours. Remainder due on before pick up or delivery.
