View Full Version : Guaging Interest in a nice 1987 Mustang GT Vert

I have an almost completely stock non modified 1987 Mustang Convertible GT with 99K on the clock. Look at them stock turbines man they are clean.

This car was a garage queen and never saw rain or snow according to the PO who had it in his family for over 17 years (him and his brother in law). It was a local Cinci car. Believe me after i crawled under it I believed him. It was painted once due to vandalism.

I rebuilt the rear power window motor bushings. I have a set for the front but have not gotten to it yet.

I have some parts for it that come in the deal.

-New black top
-New black headliner
-New Carpet
-steeda lowering spring
-like new KYB shocks and struts
-new insulators for the springs (uppers and lowers)
-a box full of misc stuff.
-set of unique alum wheels

The top on it is good and really only needs the window portion of it replaced which can be done separately and is in the kit. The lower outer portion of the window is delaminating from the vinyl.

I bought this to play with and am still debating if i want to go another route. Jeff and Chris at Precision Automotive know this car and installed a cat back off my old 2004 GT on it.


The Good:
-Paint is in great shape
-No rust
-Tires are like new
-Interior in great shape (no rips in seats, dash is not cracked, and its clean)
-New MP3 / IPOD input stereo (not pictured - SONY)
-New polk audio speakers in the rear
-Newer exhaust (2004 factory GT setup)
-Clean Engine compartment
-runs like a champ fires right up
-no electrical gremlins, it starts straight up and I never have to disconnect the battery
-Center Console is complete functional and the ashtray door has been repaired (spring mount)
-all power options work
-Jeff and Chris went over this car when I bought it and stated it was in great shape (It still has the speed density system).

The BAD:
-It has a small oil pan drip, could do with a new set of gaskets.
-It needs a starter - the one I have in it works ok for 2-3 starts then wont turn over the car till it cools down (suspect heat soak).
-Rear curtain of the Top could stand to be replaced.
-AC is dead but all there (condensor inside car has a leak) I have some of the parts to fix it.



I was thinking 6500 cash, no trades. I can tell you there is over 1K in new parts alone. If the right offer does not come along I will begin to fix it and the price will go up.

Here are a few pics.

Working on it right now as we speak, new carpet is in, new rubber door seals are in, new hood rubber kit installed. Got new seats for it out of a mid nineties, they have been steam cleaned (no rips).

The interior will go back in soon, and I expect to go onto the convertible top. Price as it is still stands. once the top goes on and the suspension goes in the price will bump. Get it while you can.


TTT!

Man that car looks fantastic for 95k miles. Cudos to you or whoever for maintaining it so well.

Convertible top 80% in. I have to stretch it now and secure the rear curtain down low. It was not that bad of a job. Its going to be killer!

Then I will drive it a bit, I bought a set of 04 bullets to go on it so a 5 lug conversion is also in the near future. And probably the suspension at the same time since i will have it all apart.

I will try to get pics of the new top soon.

Top is now 100% done and its my daily driver! I sold my passat so i needed something to drive. Aside from the price of gas, its a great car to drive.

So its back together, i have been driving it as a daily and enjoying it. But it is always for sale. I would be willing to entertain offers.
