For sale one project 1986 Mustang GT. Vehicle is an original 5.0 T-5 five speed vehicle. Vehicle has 174k original miles. I am the third owner. Vehicle color is white exterior with grey interior. Vehicle has clean title, and clean Carfax with no accidents or damage. Vehicle should be considered a project and will need some more work to make road worthy. Car is stock with the exception of mufflers and shifter. I have invested $4700 in the vehicle over the last two years and managed to straighten out the DMV paperwork that was a prior mess. First the vehicle runs and drives but will need brake work (see below). I presently have this vehicle non operational registered due to electrical issues. More specifically the vehicle had a terrible alarm install sometime in its previous life prior to my ownership. When I got under the dash the wiring was a mess with things randomly connected. The under dash wiring will need replacement. I have the correct one year only 86 hard top under dash wiring harness complete and uncut along with dealer wiring schematics used for repair. The dash has been damaged due to a poor stereo install. Included in the sale are two uncut hard top dashes. One is the proper factory grey that does have a minor crack on one side (not pictured). Because of this I also purchased a tan dash without cracks that I planned to possibly dye. Interior will need to be complete redone. Included are many parts to start a proper restoration which I had planned, 4 center consoles will be included so that you can pick and choose which parts you want to make an excellent console. I have also purchased a new arm rest pad in grey. I have found an original very nice grey factory headliner, along with a nice set of proper color grey interior quarter plastics to replace the sun damaged and weathered units in presently. I have also found a nice factory carpet that is grey and will need cleaning. The vehicle has incorrect year seats. I have found the correct sport seats that will need recovering. They will come with proper color halo headrests (only one pictured in parts photo). New rubber pedal covers have been installed as well. It will need a dash pad as the one with the car is destroyed. With regards to drivetrain I have replaced a lot of components at this point. Vehicle has the following new: Alternator, starter, starter solenoid, MSD Cap and Rotor, Ford Racing 8MM wires, motorcraft spark plugs, kirban fuel pressure regulator, AEM 320 LPH in tank fuel pump, PVC assembly, oxygen sensors, front catalytic converters with proper 50 state legal factory replacements, all exhaust hangers, transmission reverse sensor, radiator overflow tank, water pump, engine fan assembly, engine fan clutch, all under hood cooling & heater hoses, rear hatch struts, and hurst short throw shifter. Transmission has been flushed and refilled with royal purple synthetic fluid and has no miles since fluid change on it. Cooling system has been flushed and has no issues or leaks and all components are new. Things the vehicle still needs are as listed here. The brake system needs to be gone through, as it has air in the system and the brakes fall to the floor. The wiring mentioned prior. Another issue which I have tracked down is that someone had installed an incorrect steering column from a cougar and wired up the ignition improperly with a direct wire to the solenoid. I have found the correct non cruise column for the car and will also include a new ignition cylinder and key I purchased for it. I had planned on replacing this when I redid the dash and the associated wiring. Other things it will need is shocks at some point and various suspension bushing from typical wear. Vehicle rides on chrome pony rims, but will need new tires. Vehicles exhaust is stock with the exception of flowmaster mufflers welded in, which I bought the car with already installed. With regards to the body and exterior vehicle has no rust other surface spots from paint chips. Vehicle is wearing original factory paint and will definitely need a repaint. Floor pans are solid. Car has never been in an accident and shows. It will show typical wear for a 30 year old vehicle. Included will be a set of front fenders because the originals are dented and while easily repaired, I would rather replace with clean sheet metal while still available. Also included for the exterior are an excellent set of correct year taillights, a set of marchal fog lights with factory covers, correct undented GT specific drip mouldings, and various other pieces. Included is a spare T-5 trans I picked up as a back up just in case anything should happen to the original. It will come with factory shifter. Vehicle also comes with a brand new set of steeda full length subframe connectors with torque box reinforcements. With all that being said this isn’t something you are going to hop into and drive. It is a true project car. I have tracked down all the hard parts in order to get the car going and start on a very good restoration. I purchased this with long term goals in mind. That being said my current occupation has me moving constantly and I just don’t have the time to work on it as much as I would like. Car would be a great project for someone whom has the time and knowledge. It would even make for a great starting point for a drag car project if restoration wasn’t desired. As much as it pains me and given the work and money I have in the car I am offering it at half what I have put into it so that someone may possibly pick up where I left off. With sale will come clear title and bill of sale. I am requesting $500 deposit with 48hrs of purchase. Vehicle is located in Bakersfield, California in the central portion of the state. Car is sold, as is, used. It has no warranty expressed or implied. Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions. Thanks for looking.
