Overview of 1985 Ford Mustang GT For Sale by Owner

Ford’s third generation Mustang was introduced in 1979, and quickly became known as the Fox Body, due to it sitting on Ford’s Fox platform. Designed by Jack Telnack, the third generation came as a coupe, convertible and hatchback. Thankfully, it retained the rear-wheel drive layout, despite Ford considering making it front-wheel drive during its early development days. While the Fox Body wasn’t immediately a hit, it’s considered a nice modern classic ʼStang these days. If you’re a Fox Body fan or eager to see what the Fox is like, here’s a nice 1985 Ford Mustang GT for sale. The car has seen plenty of work to make it better than factory, and comes with just 2,000 miles on the clock after a comprehensive overhaul that includes its interior, exterior, and mechanical bits.

Exterior and Interior

The blue paint job on this 1985 Ford Mustang GT is the result of a 2020 repaint, which is why it looks so fresh and pleasant. Take a closer look and you’ll note that this 1985 Ford Mustang GT is a bit different. That’s because it’s got a tasteful blend of components from various model years of the third generation. For example, it’s got the nose from a 1993 variant, and the cheese grater-styled taillamps of a 1988 model. Then, there’s a fiberglass hood, and some 17X9 aftermarket alloy wheels for a distinctive stance. The interior of this 1985 Ford Mustang GT is reportedly new, with fresh carpeting, new air conditioning, and a comprehensive overhaul in the music department. This includes an amplifier, a subwoofer, and a Kenwood Bluetooth-capable head unit. Meanwhile, a Dakota Digital dashboard provides a nice upgrade to the car’s gauge pack.

Engine

This 1985 Ford Mustang GT runs a balanced and blueprinted 5.0L V8, paired with a rebuilt T5 5-speed manual gearbox. Power goes to the rear wheels through a 8-inch Ford rear end and a Positrac 373. There’s also a new McLeod clutch. The engine benefits from a Flowmaster exhaust, Edelbrock port fuel injection, new exhaust valves, a new radiator, a new water pump and more. Then, we’ve got new control arms, KYB shocks, and front plus rear adjustable Scooter suspension. SN95 Cobra brakes top off a pretty comprehensive package, making this a pony that’s waiting to gallop for miles and miles.
