Description of 1989 Ford Mustang GT

BEING RELISTED DUE TO A NON-PAYINGBIDDER. PLEASE ONLY BID IF YOU PLAN ON BUYING THE CAR.

This is a beautiful example of a 1989 Mustang GT. You don't get many chances to buy one with only 29,110 miles on it. My plan was to turn it into a road racing car but it's way too nice to start cutting it up. I just purchased this car but I don't have room for it. The Carfax shows that it had 89,001 miles on it this past year at inspection. It was recorded incorrectly. Here is the yearly breakdown from Carfax.

04/89 - shipped from manufacturer

10/95 - 13,097 miles (Carfax formed in 1984 but didn't do much before 1994)

06/15 - 24,800 miles

07/16 - 28,317 miles

03/18 - 89,001 miles (actual were 29,001)

All of the panels have the original VIN tags on them. I did my best to get pictures of the body lines. They are all straight. Both doors shut like a car with 29k miles on it. YES, the ashtray door still works. There is absolutely no rust around the factory sunroof. I just had the car hand polished and it looks great. The interior of the car is spotless. Look at the photos of the seats, the doors, the carpeting. It does have a Pro 5.0 Shifter in it but I still have the stock one and it comes with the car. It has 3.55 gears but I still have the stock gears and they also come with it. The speedo gear was not changed, so the speedo is off. It has a Flowmaster exhaust and sounds great. It has a high-flow h-pipe and headers on it. I don't know the brand but I would guess BBK or equivalent. Yes, those are the stock wheels and they are in great shape. The tires are at least twenty years old, so they will need to be replaced. They don't have the date code on them that is used today, so I don't know how to tell the actual age. This car could be driven anywhere with new tires and fresh fluids. All of the glass is original. The door lock actuators don't work but I have two NOS, not aftermarket, available at an additional cost of $300. I also have a complete set of NOS headlights (all 6 lenses), not aftermarket, available at an additional cost of $1500.00. Again, the NOS actuators and headlights are not included in the auction but available only if you buy the car. I won't sell them separately. The headlight setup is impossible to find but this car deserves NOS parts. I replaced the hood insulator with an NOS insulator as the one on the car was moldy. I have a set of used pony wheels with new tires on them. We could discuss a price for those if you are looking to drive it home. We can also discuss having all of the fluids changed in advance of taking possession as well. The phony wheels/tires and fluid change would be something I can quote if you are interested.

If I were to keep it, I would be giving it a paint job. There are two rust spots (see photos) and both doors have slight surface rust just below the door molding (this could possibly be cleaned up with WD40). There is no rot on the car. The strut towers and floors are mint. The two rust bubbles could be cleaned up and match the paint but the paint is all original and could use refreshing, so why not just paint the entire car. I also showed the damage to the rear bumper where the previous owner backed into something and took a piece of the bumper out. The piece is in the spare tire compartment. Someone put a cell phone antenna on/in the roof, as that was the cool thing to do in the early 90s. It also has an aftermarket radio in it. It starts, runs and drives like a 29k mile car. A couple of times the transmission made a grinding sound but only going into reverse. The last time I drove it, I drove around town and it didn't do it at all but I still wanted to mention it. I like to be crystal clear of any concerns, so there are no surprises. Some of the plastic trim pieces are cracked from age (Seat belt sleeves and rear quarter panel has a small crack in it). The headliner could use some attention. It's pulling out in a couple of spots. The quarter window rubber is pitted as they all do. There is no spare tire or jack. They can be found on Ebay.

I have done my best to be 100% honest with as much detail as I can about this car. I'm sure that I'm missing stuff. I have owned more than a dozen Fox bodies. I currently own an 89 GT convertible with 70k+ miles on it. There is a huge difference between a car that has 29k and 129k or even one with 70k miles. If you don't believe this car has 29k miles on it, please don't bid. No need to message me. Nobody is forcing anyone to bid. Look at the body lines, the interior and the strut towers. Mustangs that lived their life in New England don't look like this unless they are low mileage and garaged. I own five other Mustangs and don't really have room for number 6. This is the last time I'm going to list it. If it doesn't sell, I will start gutting it and turn it into a track car. It's very frustrating to have to relist cars when deadbeats waste everyone's time.

Please ask questions in advance of bidding. I uploaded as many pictures as Ebay would let me. I paid extra so that you can supersize them. Be sure to look them over. You don't find Mustangs this clean, especially in New England.

I will not ship the car internationally. I can discuss delivering in the Northeast as I own an enclosed trailer.Shipping is not included and will be quoted accordingly if you are in the Northeast. If you are outside of the Northeast, I will work with your shipping company but you are responsible for the logistics and the cost. The car will not leave my possession until payment has 100% cleared. If you can't pickup the car right away, we can negotiate storage for up to 30 days but only if the car is paid in full. Once it is paid in full, I will overnight you the title and the bill of sale.


Car is for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.
