All, I've decided to put my 1990 Mustang GT up for sale.

1990 Mustang GT:



The Good:

- 5 speed car
- New RAM HDX clutch (replaced original clutch)
- All original drivetrain (engine, trans, rearend)
- Runs great
- All external parts in tact (moldings, etc)
- Rust free

- Original equipment present:
- Emission system fully intact
- AC present, but has a sytem leak. (Works if you charge it, but leaks within a few days)

- Passes Emissions with flying colors, Passes VA State Inspection
- Just passed VA Emissions in Sept '09
- State inspection done in March '09 (I had let it lapse over the last winter, there were no issues)

- I am the third owner




Since owning, the folling parts were fixed, or maintenance activities done:

- Spring '09:

- New clutch job done by Excessive, included the following:
- RAM HDX Clutch
- Resurfaced flywheel
- Replace pilot bearing
- Replace throwout bearing
- Replace rear main seal
- New clutch cable / firewall adjuster / aftermarket quadrant
- Replace driveshaft yoke
- Replace transmission fluid




-Earlier:

- Magnaflow stainless steel catted x-pipe (To pass Emissions) (Has flowmaster mufflers from prev. owner)
- New O2 sensors installed
- New belt tensioner and serpentine belt
- Fan and fan clutch
- Thermostat
- TFI Module

- Full "Mustang" tuneup:
- Cap and rotor (if it matters, the MSD ones, NOT an MSD distributor though, dist is stock)
- Plugs and FRPP wires
- Cleaned MAF, IAC, reset TPS, set idle
- Checked for all KOEO and KOER codes - none found

- Replace door and hatch weatherstripping (I haven't put the drivers door weatherstirpping on yet, but have it - original piece still in place)




Upgrades/Other Stock Parts Replaced:

- Excessive subframe connectors
- 3G Alternator and large gauge alternator wire (with high amp fuse) (Alt is from a '98 Mustang, approx. 45k miles on it)
- Aftermarket shifter (bought used, Tri-ax I believe)
- SN95 V6 Cloth seats from a '96 (Still have leather '90 titanium sport seats, but they need recovering, ripped)
- 50resto headlight kit (stock style)
- Installed foglights but didn't wire them (bought the car with the oe ones missing - will need to be wired in or removed, or covered to pass inspection next time around)
- Replaced passenger door GT moulding that was missing when I bought the car (now has all moulding peices)
- Mustang logo floormats (black)
- Pony rims (tires are OK the rims are in OK shape, not the best looking tires or rims but better than the turbines)
- Cobra-style taillights ('86 taillights refinished with black striping, look nice!) (still have the cheesegrater light covers)




The Bad:

- Paint is original but needs a repaint. Two tone (Titanium bottom, dark blue upper). Bad clearcoat peeling, but no bodywork or primer. VIN tags on fenders match up as original.
- Inteiror - previous owners left it pretty dirty. I cleaned it pretty good but the door panels aren't the greatest, and the carpet is dingy. The seats leather was also torn. But it's all there and interior parts can be found very cheap.




Needs:

- Paint to look it's best
- Carpet and OEM seats recovered or used ones replaced to look it's best
- AC has a leak, all parts are there and were functional when tested a few years ago
- Has a very slight power steering line leak in one of the lines but it's not major
- The trans shifts fine in all gears, but occasionally if you downshift to 2nd it will pop out of gear. Match revs and this doesn't happen, and it's never gotten worse
- Nothing else mechanically




Mileage:

This car has 208,000 miles on it. That does sound like a lot, and it is, but it's in better mechanical and body shape than it's mileage (for a Fox Mustang) might indicate. I've seen cars with half the mileage that were hacked up and wrecked. Mileage aside, this is a pretty solid vehice, and feels mechanically sound. When I bought the car, it has 193,000 mlies, that nearly scared me away but I took a look at it anyway, and ended up buying it. That was 5 years ago, and it's been a fun car since.


Why am I selling? I am selling this car becuase I'm buying a house and would like to add money to my budget for that. I notice I'm driivng this car less lately, so it seems reasonable to convert it to the house budget. After things settle down, I'm looking to get a newer SN95 convertible as a daily driver, or perhaps go back to the Fox world with a 4-eye project car.


Price: $2900



Of course this is a 19 yo car so it comes "As-is" but I've done my best to describe it here.

Pics: (The paint looks better in the pics than in person, I'm just being honest here. It does show the body is pretty straight though) The car is photogenic I guess :)

Bump! Still got it. Will get some more pics soon, I get home and it's dark so it may have to wait until the weekend for more pics.

Car still running great - I'm somewhat negotiable on price btw. I know I'm keeping my audience small, it's not on ebay, craigslist or autotrader, just the MM.net group and my local Mustang club.

I do need to get some track time in one of these days, it's been my daily driver these days, I have a 30mile commute each way now, nothing like a 460hp rolling leather couch to get to work. :)
