This is your opportunity to own a much desired
Fox Body Ford Mustang coupe / notchback. This is a rotisserie
restored 1989 Mustang LX coupe built as a Pro Touring car and has
been featured in issue 5 of Fox Mustang Magazine. This Mustang had less than 23, 000
miles on it when the restoration began, so it started out as a near perfect
body with no rust. Only 500 break-in miles have been logged on this Mustang
since the completion of the restoration.
The paint is a dark metallic gray over lighter silver, separated by a thin
orange stripe. The mirror shine paint job is flawless, and above the quality
that you see on most cars at high end car shows. The metallic in the dark gray
really stands out in the sun and under bright lights.
The engine is a stout 347 stroker engine rated at 525RWHP with worked Trick
Flow heads; Vortech S-Trim Supercharger with 48-pound Trick Flow injectors fed
by an Aeromotive fuel system; MSD ignition; Crane cam and a long list of other
goodies The transmission is a Tremec T600.
The exhausts starts with a pair of short tube Doug's headers, a 2.5 inch
stainless X-pipe and Flowmaster 40 Series mufflers that gives it an aggressive
but subdued exhaust note at idle hinting at the high performance experience
that goes with this vehicle.
Suspension is adjustable coil-overs on all 4 corners. Wheels are FR500
10-spokes with Nitto 235/45ZR17 tires up front and NT555 P275/40R17 Extreme
Drag Radial rubber in the rear. Once rolling the AeroSpace disc brakes on all 4
corners slow things down with the help of drilled and slotted rotors.
The interior is all brand new as well; it has custom two tone leather seats to
mimic the exterior colors of the car. Water Temp, Boost Press and Air Fuel
gauges are tastefully mounted to driver's side windshield pillar. It also has a
custom fit role bar / cage painted the same dark metallic gray as the top of
the outside of the car. A high end stereo system made up of a PioneerAM/FM/CD
player and a Bazooka sub-woofer complete the total interior package.
Driving this car is incredible. It is a contradiction of sensations with the
mix of raw power that's available instantly at any RPM and in any gear, combined with the predictability of the suspension, the right tires, lightweight wheels and spot-on aftermarket brakes.
This 89 Mustang was a two year build and it was built to be bulletproof.
Everything was built to handle 800 plus horsepower -- the engine, transmission, rear end, etc. It does have 31 spline axles with 3:73 gears as well as subframe
connectors that are welded in from front to back.
As mentioned above it was a very low mileage car to begin with -- there was no
rust at all and every panel on the car is original. The shell was painted with
no wires or anything in it, resulting in perfection due to attention to detail
when prepping, painting and re-assembling the car. Look at the last two
pictures where the two-tone paint as well as the pin striping that separates
the two colors is carried through to the inside of the doors as well as the
door jams.
