1988 Mustang LX Vert. Smoke Gray. 5 speed.

I have owned this car for about 4 years. I have never taken the car to the track. It has been a car me and my Son have used for cruise nights . Just had a second kid so unfortunately I have had no time to really drive the car. Hence, the sale.

Car has always been reliable. No known mechanical issues. I have put about 5k into it over the past couple years. I bought it with 105,000 miles, It now has 108,000 miles.

Originally a Tennessee car. Never driven in salt or snow. No rust. Underneath is clean. I drove down to Southern Illinois to purchase the car and drove it 6 hours home to Chicago with no issues.

Cloth Convertible top was replaced not too long ago but has a small hole on the drivers side.
