Description of 1988 Ford Mustang LX 5.0

The 5.0 already has a legendary reputation, and now it's becoming a valued classic. That's why it's important to take a closer look this 1988 Ford Mustang LX convertible. Not only does it have the legendary fuel-injected V8, but also a five-speed stick, loaded A/C interior, and true droptop appeal. And it's all offered for a value price.

You're looking at a well-maintained Mustang convertible. The factory-correct burgundy paint has the boldness of red with an added hint of dark sophistication. And that's the right attitude, because being an LX car means it has a bit more sophistication to it. You can see this in details like the rear luggage rack and pinstripe that matches the convertible top. Everything from the straightness of the panels to the shine of the factory alloys signal this has been a well-respected modern classic.

Not only does the pinstripe nicely accent the roof color, but also the interior beige, too. With a color-matched convertible boot, this one really has a well-coordinated look inside and out. Everything remains in its stock appearance, including the dual-spoke steering wheel and the original full gauge panel with large speedo and tach. Plus, this one came loaded with amenities such as power locks, and original AM/FM/cassette stereo. But the features we think you'll love the best are the power windows and a power convertible top. When used together, it means you don't have to leave the driver's seat to go from enclosed comfort to a wind-in-your-hair experience. And because the air conditioning is blowing cold with modern R134a, you can even enjoy this open-top experience in the summertime.

The engine bay has a terrific stock look, and the 5.0-liter motor is believed to be original. With its great sound, bulletproof reputation, and impressive torque, this fuel-injected V8 made it the pony car of choice for an entire generation. While there is a huge and affordable aftermarket for these motors, it's refreshing to see one looking so well preserved and unaltered (right down to the factory decals.) And more than just look good, this droptop Mustang was built to enjoy. After all, the five-speed manual transmission puts complete control in your hands of the V8's power and soundtrack. Plus, you'll love driving this convertible all day with its power steering, power brakes w/discs up front, and sway bars front & rear.

Complete with owner's manual, this is a modern classic of distinction. So if you love a great deal on a great convertible, don't miss this one.
