Hey guys, posting this up for sale for my girlfriend since it is technically her car.

The rundown:

1988 Ford Mustang convertible
Candy apple red with white top and black trim
Gray leather interior
5 speed manual
5.0 H.O. V8
~ 90,000 miles

A little history - my girlfriend bought the car 2 years ago in June. It was driven until she went off to school in August and stored for the winter. It was then brought back out in April and driven again until October when she changed schools, then put away until April again. So far we've put about 9,000 miles on the car from when it was purchased. It doesn't get driven a lot since it's pretty much a "nice day only" car and is kept very clean. It's been well taken care of in the time she's owned it. I've been keeping it in great running shape and have been performing some maintainance over the course of the past year. I've put together a list of everything that's in the car and that's been done to it. The list pretty much tells you everything you need to know about the car and should answer all the questions you may have. The car was cleaned up very thoroughly and the pictures show were taken a few hours ago. And now onto the list and pictures:

That should cover about everything. Current price is $6,000 OBO with that being a starting price and working from there. This car does get a lot of attention at shows and can easily be used as a daily driver or weekend car. Due to the suspension tuning it is a little tight, but allows the car to be able to run through the twisties and at the 1/4 mile track. Also, the car is modified and is 20 years old, so it will have the slight squeeks and such, so please don't expect a perfect show car. There's also the option to further tune the car since the aftermarket is very large for these vehicles. If you need any more information or other pictures feel free to PM me or send an e-mail to templeton_cody@hotmail.com or you can reach me at 563-590-5687 (leave a message if I do not answer). Thank you for looking.

Honestly man... you probably won't sell it here.

I'd buy it in a minute if I had my '05 paid off.

Good luck with a local sale though...

 

Bump!

New price, 5,000 FIRM!
