Used Car of the Day: 1988 Ford Mustang LX

by


Despite my bias as a former Fox-body owner and unabashed Fox-body fan, we don't post a ton of Fox-body Mustangs in this feature. We actually don't feature that many Mustangs in general, though we've had a few Bullitts and last week's drop-top Cobra. That's because used Mustangs, even the aging Fox bodies, are plentiful on the Interwebs.

Still, this one was clean enough to stop me in my proverbial tracks as I browsed the internal corporate database I use to pull these cars.

There are only 80,000 miles on this LX with a manual transmission. Our seller has had it for nearly 20 years and claims that it has made 400 horsepower on a dyno. There are, he or she says, a lot of modifications. Those would appear to include the camshaft, lifters, intake, rebuilt and ported heads, and the exhaust. It also has mass air flow.

That manual is a Tremec T5, but of course. The wheels and tires are new. Other upgrades include the alternator and cooling fan.

You can find this Fox in Minnesota for $22,000 and the mileage is just 80,000.
