Description of 1988 Ford Mustang lx Convertible paxton supercharger

as you can see from the photo's, this is avery cleanand well taken care adult owned88 mustang lx 5.0 convertible with auto trans. thegt body panelsandPaxton supercharger were later added. the car is dark red with a near immaculate greycloth interior and tan top. the car has always been garage kept,most often covered, spentmost of it's life in southeastern pa., and was not used in the winter. it was purchased from an adultin the medical fieldin 1992 with 80,200 mostly interstate miles on it, thenupgraded by the sr. owner whowas a meticulous and well respected ford ( teens thru 60s era)restorer and performance enthusiast. upgrades includedthe paxton supercharger, headers andperformance exhaust system with dumps, stiffeners, a shift kit, gt body details, and a new 160 mph speedometer. hedidn't drive it that much due toage and health issues, but liked having a fast car. the new speedometer shows 11,295 miles. (giving the car a total of91,495 total miles). this is an estate sale.
the interior is like new.the tan top was replaced about 6 years ago due to a very small tear. it still looks new, andhasn't been down very often.the underside is extremely clean. itcurrently has bf goodrich comp ta vr4 tires showing light wear.
the paint is bright and shiny, with somesome typical paint chips in the front area and on the hood.theantenna is broken.the heater core was recently disconnected due to a very small leak ( a new heater core is included, still in the box).there is a small ding on the left rear cornor of the grey gt body panel.the plastic radiator reservoir has a split near the top.the top boot is like new, and includes the bag it comes in. the trunk is immaculate.the electric windows work fine, just stick once in a while, which is common with these cars.
as far as I know the engine is original and was not internally modified.
overall the car sounds and runs great, with a very noticeable rumble when idling.i've driven it gently about 100 miles (including 2 days ago) since bringing it to ny. it'sreliable, very quick, starts immediately, is tight andrattle free,hugs the road like a race car, yet itis mild enough for everyday driving(my wife loves the car, but we don't have room for another one).
the photo's and above description indicate the condition of the car. I cananswer sometechnical questions but am limited sincei'm not the owner.I'mpretty familiar with cars, and have owned a similar 5.0 mustang. please ask any questions you have and i'll try to answer the best I can.
if you're interested in a really nice 5.0 mustang convertible it'll be hard to find a better one.
the car is available for inspection by you or a representative. it is located about 2 hours north of nycity.shipping is your responsibility. I will of course help bymeeting a shipper if you arrange for it.
