"This Mustang is gorgeous, the pictures don't do it justice! Fresh engine and transmission that have less than 1,000 miles on the rebuild. Really though, this one is exceptional! It will turn heads and win trophies, but the real pleasure will be driving it. Equipped with features like a power convertible top, power steering, and disc brakes, this pony is a thoroughbred anyway you look at her!
EXTERIOR: I know it looks like a piece of candy but please no licking! The Candy red paint has been slightly altered from stock with some tasteful metal flake. It was then polished to a glossy and slick finish. All the panels were painstakingly aligned, and the gaps look great. The doors close very easily. Looking down the side of the body it is 100% laser straight. The bumpers are fresh and shiny. The grill, bumpers, emblems, taillights were replaced. The windshield and weatherstrips were replaced too. looks like new. It has the factory badging. I prefer the top down, but it does have a virtually new black convertible top as well. It's an optional power top, push the lever and let the sunshine in! The wheels are a modern version of the original GT wheel, the are 17 inch and cut from billet aluminum. They are sitting on Goodyear tires that are size 225/45R17.

I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car, your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year membership.
