We've sold so many Mustangs and written so many listings for them that we could ostensibly write the Mustang's auto-biography. Pun intended. Take this 1972 Ford Mustang Cobra Jet as an example. It's not the first '72 'Stang to come our way, and we've seen Cobra Jets before too. However, every Mustang is special. This car, for example, has run a relatively light 50,000 miles and comes to you after an oil change, plus fresh tires. Hence, it's a great turn-key classic car for the enthusiast who wants a runner but is also willing to use it as a learning tool. Let's delve deeper into its persona.
Exterior and Interior
The searing green paintwork of this 1972 Ford Mustang Cobra Jet is bound to raise eyebrows and turn heads. We love it in all its SportRoof glory. The car even has the signature 'Shaker' hood scoop, named because the air intake directly sits on the engine and protrudes out of a cutout in the hood. Hence, it can be seen shaking while the mighty V8 idles. On to the interior of this 1972 Ford Mustang Cobra Jet, we find it in shades of green and black. The center console hosts ventilation and heater controls, plus a push-button radio with a Quadrasonic tape player. You'll find two speakers installed within the rear parcel shelf, too. Meanwhile, the driver gets a two-spoke steering wheel, a full gauge pack, and a T-bar gear shifter. Oh, and as you'd expect, there are rear seats since Mustangs are proper four-seaters. The same can be said of the latest 2024 Mustang, which bears all the family values of its ancestors.
Engine
This 1972 Ford Mustang Cobra Jet packs its original 351ci Cobra Jet V8 from the Cleveland family. Since this is a Q-code engine, it should make circa 265hp and 301lb-ft. Power goes to the rear wheels via a 3-speed automatic gearbox, enabling all the smoky burnouts that you desire. You'll also appreciate the independent front suspension with coil springs, and the rear leaf spring suspension with staggered shock absorbers is surprisingly capable, too. Braking is no trouble either, thanks to the front discs and rear drums.
By 1969, the Shelby GT350 had evolved from the raw, competition-minded Mustang of the mid-1960s into something broader in character: still unmistakably performance-focused, but now with the presence and comfort of a true high-speed grand tourer. This 1969 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 shows approximately 80,436 miles and wears Black Jade over a Black interior with red seat accents, a combination that suits the car’s more mature personality especially well. Its Shelby identity is everywhere, from the functional twin-scoop fiberglass hood and Cobra-branded grille to the side scoops, GT350 graphics, rear decklid spoiler, Shelby Automotive identification plate, and Carroll Shelby signature across the passenger-side dash. Underneath, the 351ci Windsor V8, SelectShift Cruise-O-Matic automatic, and 3.25:1 Traction-Lok rear axle give it the kind of effortless V8 pace expected from a late-1960s Shelby, while power steering, power-assisted front disc brakes, and air conditioning make this example as much a road-going GT as it is a muscle car. It is a fitting snapshot of the moment when Shelby Mustangs became less about stripped-down competition and more about combining speed, style, and long-distance usability.
The Fox-body Mustang has become one of the defining American performance cars of the 1980s, and the GT Convertible remains one of the most recognizable versions of the formula. This 1988 Ford Mustang GT Convertible shows approximately 100,336 miles and is finished in Black over a Scarlet Red cloth interior with a black convertible soft top. Its specification includes the 5.0L High-Output V8, 4-speed AOD automatic, Traction-Lok limited-slip differential, GT lower body aero package, front air dam with integrated fog lights, rear decklid spoiler, and 15-inch turbine-style aluminum wheels. The red bodyside accent stripe ties directly into the vivid interior, while a JVC audio head unit adds a small modern update. It is a classic late-1980s Mustang configuration with plenty of visual attitude and the V8 character enthusiasts expect from a Fox-body GT.
The 2007 Ford Mustang Shelby GT occupies a special place in modern Shelby history, bringing Carroll Shelby’s name back to a naturally aspirated, rear-wheel-drive Mustang package with unmistakable visual cues and enthusiast-focused hardware. This example shows approximately 29,232 miles and is finished in Black with Silver Le Mans stripes over a Light Graphite interior. Shelby-specific details include the billet grille, hood scoop, hood pins, side stripes, strut tower brace, 18-inch Shelby-style wheels, and the aluminum dash plaque carrying CSM serial numbering and Carroll Shelby’s signature. Combined with its 5-speed manual transmission, 3.55 rear axle ratio, heated seats, and Shaker 1000 stereo system, this Shelby GT delivers the right mix of period-correct muscle-car character and everyday usability.
This 1930 Ford Model A Coupe Street Rod is the kind of build that rewards a closer look, because the craftsmanship underneath is every bit as important as the period hot-rod silhouette above it. Showing approximately 1,788 miles, this custom rotisserie-built coupe pairs a 350ci Goodwrench V8 crate engine with GM electronic fuel injection and a TH350 3-speed automatic transmission, giving the car the response and reliability of a much newer setup without taking away from its traditional street-rod character. The chassis has been thoroughly reworked with a custom fully boxed frame, Ford 9-inch rear end, rack-and-pinion steering, power front disc brakes, and rear 4-link suspension with coilovers. Finished in two-tone Gray and Silver over a Gray and Charcoal interior, it also wears Magnum 500 wheels with Coker Classic whitewalls and carries a red-accented undercarriage that turns the underside into part of the show.
This 1932 Ford Model 18 5-Window Coupe Hot Rod is an all-steel, heavily customized build that combines authentic early-Ford architecture with the unmistakable performance character of a 1969 Corvette-sourced 427ci Big-Block Chevrolet V8. Showing approximately 6,977 miles, the car was conceived as a one-of-one creation rather than a conventional street rod, with virtually every major component selected or engineered around its distinctive combination of vintage Henry Ford steel and big-block Chevrolet power. Its all-steel 1932 Ford 5-window body has been given a dramatic 4-inch roof chop, producing the low, aggressive profile at the heart of the build, while the fenderless front end, exposed suspension, deep-dish Cragar S/S wheels, front skinnies, and substantial rear performance rubber reinforce its traditional hot-rod attitude. Beneath the body is a custom fully boxed aftermarket frame designed to cope with the torque of the 427, backed by a heavy-duty TH400 automatic and Ford 9-inch rear axle. According to the seller, the car has also received significant publicity and attracted attention from collectors, further separating it from the typical home-built street rod.
