GR Auto Gallery is excited to offer this low mile, all original, two owner 1988 Ford Mustang GT Convertible for sale from a very exclusive private collection. This 5.0 Mustang was purchased new on May 7, 1988 at Fulton Ford of Canal Fulton, OH. The car came attractively dressed in Scarlet Red exterior with two-tone Scarlet Red and White interior with white convertible top. The car is powered by the legendary 5.0 liter EFI High Output V8 engine hooked to the desirable 5 speed manual transmission and applied by its Traction-Lock rear axle. Standard performance equipment includes: Power Rack-and-Pinion Steering with 15:1 Ratio, a Handling Package which includes: variable rate springs, gas pressurized struts and shocks, and "Quadra Shock" rear suspension.

The car has been always kept inside when not in use and as a result, the original paint remains wonderful original condition, the original white leather seats are still supple, the red carpeting remains very clean and fresh.
Mechanically, this 1988 Mustang is spot on. That familiar sound of its 5.0 liter roars to life as you climb through the gears. The power, sound and feel is something that is exclusive only to the Fox body 5.0 and is beloved by many. The car delivers performance in all areas: power, suspension and braking.
The "Fox Body" GT Mustangs are fast becoming an icon of the beloved 80's. At a time where performance was squashed since the early 70's, the Mustang 5.0 liter GT's were a breath of fresh air for the performance starved American automotive public. The Fox body mustangs captured the essence of the original pony cars of the mid to late 60's and for this reason, they are starting to resonate with the collectors around the world and are now considered the next automotive investment. A low mile, original, fully documented and high quality example as the one offered here demands consideration as it will appreciate rapidly. Documentation includes: The original window sticker, original bill of sale, original warranty card, original books with original portfolio.
