This is Brad's Mustang 26 years old. ↑ Brad is intense and just like championship body building. when putting together what might be the fastest Mustang in Nevada. Brad does nothing halfway. In the spring of 2008. he acquired this 1-owner. very well cared for 1988 Mustang GT convertible. The previous owner purchased the Scarlet Red 5-speed new locally and just like Brad. saved every receipt. After tending to things like a new top. new carpet throughout. new interior switchgear and lots of other restoration items. Brad ordered a new Sportsman Series. Iron Eagle block from Dart Machinery. Skull Marine Performance in Boulder City assembled the bottom end using the finest parts available. A Comp Cams custom grind with . 608/. 612 lift produces an idle unlike anything you've ever heard. Upon completion. Brad took home a fully balanced and blueprinted 348 cubic inch short block assembly. There followed. a wallet busting list of go-fast parts. including Renegade aluminum heads. Trick Flow intake and the pièce de résistance; a Vortech V-7 supercharger huffing an incredible 22 lbs. (?) of boost. Stainless shorty headers. an H-pipe. Flowmasters and 3-inch pipes dump down and away. ahead of the rear axle. As you can see. (above) a recent dyno pull pegs this bad boy at 789 rear wheel horsepower. with an unbelievable 732 ft-lbs of torque. After vertically strapping the car down to the "known conservative" Mustang Dyno. the car still lossed traction at 5750RPM when we were shooting to see the pulls at 7000 RPM. That's net power to the ground folks. without coming anywhere near redline. Looking at the graph. another 1. 00 revs pushes this monster well north of 1. 00 rear wheel horsepower. Brutal output like this would murder a stock Mustang drive train. so the old tranny was tossed in favor of a brand new Tremec TKO 600 5-speed. A super light weight flywheel provides instant throttle response and the McLeod dual-disc clutch bites hard with perfectly linear engagement. Massive u-joints on each end of an aluminum driveshaft (a work of art to behold) faithfully delivers power to an enormously over-built and reinforced Ford 8. 8 rear end. Moser axles. an Eaton posi and Precision Gear 3. 55 ring and pinion are all bullet proof. As you might guess. Brad likes to do things right and 1. 00+ horsepower could probably twist an unprotected Fox unibody into a pretzel. Sub-frame connectors and braces are everywhere but this Mustang isn't just a straight line. one-trick pony. Brad wanted a class dominating road course car and even a quick look underneath explains why this rag top out corners a Corvette. The entire undercarriage was stripped bare with new and complete steering. suspension and brakes. Race ready upper/lower control arms. panhard bar. a 5-lug spindle kit. lowering springs. waay thick sway bars. Bilstein struts and shocks and a massive torque arm set-up stretching from transmission to pumpkin. The brake system is new from pedal to pad including stainless steel lines. slotted/drilled rotors up front and vented at the rear. Custom. one-off FR500 style wheels (17 x 9 front/17 x 10. 5 rear) are wrapped with Nitto NT 05 ultra high performance radials; 255/40ZR17 front and a steamroller 315/35ZR17 out back. The driver (and passenger) interface with the car through a pair of Corbeau LG1 racing seats. a stock steering wheel. leather wrapped shifter and eight Autometer. Pro Comp. Ultra-Lite analog gauges. As extreme as this beast is. it was built for long term reliability and daily driver confidence. The Anderson software provides easy starts and programmable tunes. ranging from mellow cruising to just below self-destruct. This car was prepared for and will pass inspection at events like the Nevada Silver State Classic and the Texas Mile. 6-point roll bar is double nutted. for example and the Corbeau seats (with Simpson racing harnesses) are positioned for plenty of helmet clearance. 1988 Ford Mustang GT Convertible VIN: 1FABP45E9JF191664 Showing Currently on Odometer: 2. 50 (exempt) Engine: Supercharged 5. 7 Liter V8 Transmission: 5-Speed Manual Exterior: Red/Black Stripes Interior: Black Cloth Built: January. 1988 - Dearborn.

Be confident your intent to buy will be met by me. the owner. courteously. Thanks. /p> Doug Williams 702-353-7500 Before you send me that awful question. "what's your reserve or bottom line". let's take a moment to explain the book value below and how to get a deal on eBay. Book values from the Kelly Blue Book and NADA Guide and other sources online are not fictitious figures or double reality as most low bidders would hope for. They are actual figures produced from transactions all over the country on similar vehicles. In other words. they are quite accurate. Over 28 years in the business. dealers like myself . buy and sell according to theses researched values. I always enjoy those who bid figures that are well below book values. it's somewhat entertaining. but it never gets them the vehicles they dream for; especially when those vehicles are in top level condition like ours. We are here to sell cars. With twelve years exclusively on eBay and perfect feedback. it's obvious we do. How? Well. that's easy too. Real buyers with serious offers in mind call us. They almost always want to talk to the person in charge; that's me. I want to talk to you too and help you own this awesome vehicle. It keeps me in business. So. if you want a fantastic vehicle like you see here. one that is far above the average in condition. serviced and documented like this. simply call. Asking through email for my bottom line? Well. I just think you're not too serious or willing to make an offer; makes it a waste of my time and yours. If you just want to know what the market value is. do what we do. look at Kelly Blue Book and NADA Guide and other online sources. Does that mean we always hope to get exactly book value. above or below? That's a loaded question. Depends on the rarity. miles and condition. Most important though. since you "are" a serious and capable buyer. call me and let's talk. I don't wear a Plaid Coat. I don't talk really fast and I am the guy in charge. the owner. enthusiast and purveyor of some of the finest cars on the internet. not to mention the best thorough presentations. Let's make a deal. Call me Doug 702-353-7500 P. S. I don't know Brad all that well but because he is a fire safety inspector. I've seen him once a year. every year for the last 5 years. Each time we talk about cars of course and he usually shows me pictures of this very Mustang and tells me how unbelievably fast it is. I nod politely like always. Our dealership sells lots of different kinds of extreme vehicles and I. consequently. routinely drive the absolute fastest/most legendary classics most people can name. The owner of every single one invariably tells me how amazed I am going to be with their car and Brad was no exception. Brad's car however. was the exception. Even after additional strapping down. the car nearly jumped off the rollers during dynamometer testing and with a 789 horsepower final pull that broke loose a 1. 00 RPM below red line. I knew enough to have appropriate respect for the throttle. What I didn't expect was this '88 Mustang being the all-time fastest car Foy has ever driven. I know there are quicker cars and I'm not suggesting my experience is superior. But. when you drive other people's fast cars for a living for as many years as I have; a vehicle faster than any other car I've ever driven was a complete surprise. Getting in wasn't the chore I imagined. especially with the top down. I push in the strong clutch. listen for the fuel pumps as Brad instructed. What follows a quick turn of the key isn't just a sound. It is an seismic event. The Iron Eagle 348 thunders to life with a deep. intimidating roar. The cam has the car shimmering and I can feel the exhaust pulses through the seat. right into my bones. The shifter feels recalcitrant at first but easy for me to master. With a sigh. I blip the revs a bit to match and ease the clutch out. The car rumbles and once on the street. I know better than to light it up in first. Even so. speed feels alarmingly immediate until I remember this convertible is barely 3. 00 pounds. I turn onto a well known and empty stretch of road and carefully squeeze in about 75% throttle in second and third gear. This flattens me against the seat with a force akin to falling off a 2nd storey roof. I am stunned in total disbelief and I had yet to floor it. On the highway. it was time to see what full whack was like so at about 80 MPH. I drop into 4th and stand on it. Traction and me part company in an instant. with the car getting progressively more sideways until just before I get out of it. Don't know exactly how fast I was going because I was busy looking over the door mirror to see where myself and a car not belonging to me were going. To be sure. I've driven cars that could break loose a little at that speed. Full on. butt-clench pucker. plain and simple. In this Mustang. you either respect the gas pedal or people die. -Foy available dates/documentation/mileage/provenance 1-88 compliance label build date - Dearborn.

I am a “used car dealer” but before that. I’m an automobile enthusiast. I love original rare and high quality modified vintage cars and over the past decade I’ve been in business. have come to appreciate an expanding selection of high-demand. high value vehicles. I specialize in and am always on the lookout for cars and trucks that were cherished by their previous owners. I have an experienced eye for quality but I’ve discovered that my preferred buyer can instantly discern such a vehicle and I have therefore. built my business and reputation around finding these kinds of cars for this type of customer. Super low miles and/or gentle ownership are strict requirements but a car must do something for me on a personal level if there is any hope of convincing you. the bidder. that this is an above average. exceptional vehicle. If nothing about the car excites me. it probably won’t do much for you either and I would soon be out of business. With just four employees and no sales people. I realize how unusual a “dealership” like mine may at first glance appear. It has taken great care and effort to create such an organization and often. an unusually high investment in a particular car we are about to list. To sell the best it is critical to have a trusted expert in my corner and Chris. owner of A-Best Auto Repair in Henderson. Nevada has my back. He and his crew can fix anything; from a low budget beater to the absolute most expensive exotic you can name. no job is too big and no small detail unimportant. They do an exhaustive 130 point inspection on each and every vehicle and nothing escapes their methodical investigation. Experience has shown that everything I spend making a car truly “right” will come back to me not only with a higher selling price. but a happy customer that says good things about me. Moreover; it allows my writer to describe the car with ease and confidence. something that simply is not possible unless he thinks it is true. If major issues are found or the cost of fixing the car the way it should be makes it too expensive to sell. my choice is an easy one. I simply absorb a few hundred dollars loss for my trouble and sell it at auction. After the vehicle is fully sorted it arrives at our facility where it encounters the suspicious eye of Tom. my writer that creates the presentations you see on eBay. He believes absolutely nothing I or anyone else tells him about the car as he combs over every inch. researches its history and documents originality and authenticity. Historical significance. rarity. special features. possible modifications and much more are used to accurately describe the vehicle with integrity and honesty. Most important for the potential buyer are the 100 to 150 high resolution pictures that I take myself. The pricey equipment I use would be right at home in the hands of the very best professional photographers and I’ve developed a logical format that walks you around the entire vehicle with close-up shots of every square inch. I provide detailed views of the interior. under the hood and then put it on a lift to show the undercarriage and confirm that the beauty of the car you are considering is not merely skin deep. Even our detailers are enthusiastic about the cars they so meticulously clean. This reconditioning can sometimes take several days and I’ve converted a paint booth. especially prepared for the professional clay bar and polishing each car lovingly receives. Usually. I’ll also include a high definition video that shows the car doing its thing. If it’s a fast car. we film it going fast. If it’s a 4x4 you’ll see it crawling up a hill. In every case you will hear things like a rumbling exhaust. working sound system and watch the temperature fall on a digital. laser thermometer pointed at an air conditioning vent. How many “dealers” will video a Lotus Esprit doing a buck-eighty? We do. No “dealer. on-line or in the real world. takes it to this level. No other seller or organization provides you. the buyer. with so much information. I do this because it is the only way I can convince a person; often a world away. unable to touch or feel their purchase. that my vehicle is for real and what I say is the truth. All the above is necessary for me to stay in business while keeping integrity intact. I want every buyer to be happy and I need glowing feedback on eBay. To accomplish that I need satisfied customers that are as thrilled with their purchase as I was when I bought it. If you have any questions at all. please call me on my cell at: 702-353-7500. If your inquiry is sincere and your offer serious. you’ll find me the most accommodating business partner you’ve ever dealt with. If you call or e-mail asking for my reserve or “what is my bottom line” I will be looking for ways to politely end the conversation. Until you are ready to actually pull the trigger. I will happily quote you the absolute highest nationally advertised suggested retail price I can find – a number we both know will not buy the car so. don’t waste your time. or mine. I am after all. a “used car dealer. ” Serious buyers know the maximum they can offer. I then must simply decide if I can sell for that number. If you hit the reserve. the decision is no longer mine. I must sell at that number. OFFERS GET MY ATTENTION: 702-353-7500 or Doug@vivalasvegasautos. com Please ask about our service programs and pricing. Cars sold without warranties are sold As-Is.
