Seller Information

Vehicle History & Overview

This Ford Mustang LX Notchback was manufactured in April 1989 and is finished in white over blue cloth upholstery. It was originally fitted with a 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine. Per the included clean Carfax report, the first owner registered this car in Maryland, and it was re-registered to Virginia in 1995, where it remained until returning back to Maryland in late 2022.

According to included documentation, the car was extensively modified in 2007 including a balanced and blueprinted DSS Racing 331ci "Stroker" V8 engine with a myriad of upgrades including a Level 10 CNC engine block, forged internals, an MSD ignition system, and much more as described in the listing below. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a swapped-in Ford C4 3-speed automatic transmission. Additionally, the exterior, interior, suspension system, and other mechanicals have been treated to upgrades throughout in order to maximize performance.

The selling dealer acquired this Fox-Body in October 2023, and states that they have added approximately 100 miles since. Per the selling dealer, this car was repainted in 2020. This Mustang is now offered with receipts and literature pertaining to the mechanical modifications and a clean Maryland title.
