Third generation Ford Mustangs, also known as the Fox Body, are known for getting relatively little love in the Mustang’s story. Introduced in 1979, the Fox came into a period when power outputs were still low, and cars weren’t particularly nice to drive. However, by the mid 1980s, things started looking positive, which is why if you’re a Fox fan, you want to look at the third generation’s latter stages. Today, we have an ideal candidate, a 1989 Ford Mustang GT from Miami, Florida. This 44,000-mile car comes with the high-output V8 and is further bolstered by a sport tune. That, plus a few other goodies mean that it’s a true head-turner to own and drive around.
We’re told that this 1989 Ford Mustang GT was previously repainted in its two-tone black and purple theme that you see in our pictures. The car is a truly distinctive Fox, with its custom blacked-out headlamps, vented hood, and most interestingly, the installation of suicide doors. Yes, the doors are rearward-hinged rather than their stock forward-hinged configuration. Silver chrome aftermarket alloy wheels complete the custom look of this car, while it comes with its original rear spoiler and slatted rear window treatment. The two-tone theme continues to the interior of this 1989 Ford Mustang GT, as you’d expect for a custom job. Yes, the seats are decked out in black and purple too. Four adults can travel within the confines of this car, kept comfortable by its air conditioning and heating system, while they enjoy some tunes via the Pioneer CD capable head unit and Clarion equalizer! Yes, this is an automotive audiophile’s dream. Looking further around the interior, we see some wood-effect trim on the dashboard, and a padded headliner too.
This 1989 Ford Mustang GT gets the much-desired 5.0-liter High Output V8, and pairs it with a 5-speed manual transmission. Of course, the car is rear-wheel drive, because it’s a Mustang! Four-wheel disc brakes are present too, as is power steering. Meanwhile, the engine bay has also received some purple elements in the form of various wires and hoses, and there’s an interesting little purple-colored cylinder in the trunk!
First generation Ford Mustangs are some of the most popular first-time classic cars around. Think we’re mistaken? Well, based on the amount of them that we’ve shifted, we beg to differ. With well over 2.5 million first-gen ‘Stangs created, there’s definitely no shortage of them around. You’ve got six or eight-cylinder power, three alluring body styles to pick from, and manual or automatic transmissions. So, choosing a first-generation Mustang is really down to your specific tastes and desires. Today’s example is a 1970 Ford Mustang Convertible from Portland, Oregon. It’s got a 302ci V8 under the hood, paired with a 3-speed SelectShift automatic gearbox, and also rocks an aftermarket radio. So do let us know if you’d like to own this sub-36,000 mile pony.
At the 2003 North American Auto Show, Ford debuted a concept car that previewed what the next Mustang could be. The current at the time fourth generation was becoming a little long in the tooth and soft in the flesh, despite Ford trying to spice it up with variants such as the Cobra R. Then, two years later, the fifth generation dropped and…people lost their minds! Here was a Mustang that had fantastic retro-modern looks, a properly fierce face, and the powertrain mix to back it up. Sales skyrocketed, with over 160,000 being sold in the United States alone, for 2005! Sales did temper a little after the initial rush, but during its nine-year run, they never went below 70,000 units per year! Taking example of this 2008 Ford Mustang GT that’s available in Douglasville, Georgia, it’s not hard to see why. This particular car is a drop-top and comes with the potent all-new at the time, all-aluminum Modular V8 at the time. One key is included with the sale of this 106,654-mile car.
Ford’s association with Shelby and resultant Shelby Mustangs was resurrected in 2008, after a long hiatus. You see, Carroll Shelby saw the potential of the first generation Mustang way back in the Sixties and created a special line-up of Shelby Mustangs that were widely regarded as fine performance machines. After that, consecutive generations didn’t receive Shelby treatment until the fifth generation. We don’t know why the Mustang II, Fox Body or SN195 didn’t get the Shelby pampering, but that’s all in the past. Now, we have a machine that has indeed come from the stables of Shelby, a 2012 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Super Snake. This potent pony is up for grabs in St. Simons Island, Georgia, and reportedly packs 800 horsepower! It’s done only 12,000 miles and is said to be #33 of 200, with Shelby documentation included with the sale.

The Ford Model A of 1927 to 1931 was the follow-up to Ford’s famous Model T, that had revolutionized mobility across the world, as well as laid the foundations for many of the automotive industry’s assembly line and mass standardization practices. Many of those advances are still in use today. So, the Model A had a pretty lofty reputation to continue, and it admirably did so. Despite just five model years, over 4.8 million were made, across various body styles. The Model A also came with the standard pedal arrangement for manual transmission-equipped vehicles that we know today, unlike the Model T’s unconventional control layout. Today’s 1930 Ford Model A 5-Window Hot Rod is quite different from a regular Model T, though. Well, for starters it only has two pedals because this machine packs a 3-speed automatic gearbox. That’s not all, there’s a 350ci V8 under the hood, a custom paint job, and under 15,000 miles on the clock since this machine got an extensive do-over. If you’d like to acquire this funky hot rod, it’s currently sitting in Yorba Linda, California.
Ford’s Focus isn’t that popular in America. It’s more of a European hero in the compact car class, where roads are smaller, town centers are tighter and compact cars rule the roost. Here, the Focus would be considered almost too small for our larger-than-life tastes. But hang on, what about the hot variant of the Focus? Specifically, the RS? Now we’re talking, because this is a spicy turbocharged hot hatch with all-wheel drive and 350 horses to be delivered. In fact, the engine of the third generation Focus RS, which is where this 2016 Ford Focus RS for sale hails from, is directly derived from the EcoBoost unit in the sixth-generation Mustang! So if you’re interested, this 86,000-mile car is up for sale in Riverside, California. It’s a four-door, too, so family practicality is another of its strong selling points, in case you need to convince your significant other as to why this car should be in your garage or driveway.
The first generation of Chevy’s popular Corvette sports car and grand tourer was revealed to the public in 1953. Called the C1, it ran until 1962, and sold just over 69,000 units. Today, finding a C1 is a little tough, but not impossible. You’ll find pristinely-kept, bone-stock examples, fixer-uppers, daily runners and restomods, like this Texas-based 1959 Chevrolet Corvette Restomod. This car packs a 6.2-liter naturally aspirated LT1 from a later Corvette, as well as aftermarket Z06-style wheels and a 4L60E 4-speed autobox. These, plus many other refinements make this a classic Corvette that you can daily drive with comfort and confidence.

The Corvette bagged the nickname "America's Sports Car" almost immediately after its 1953 debut. The reason being that it was the first American Sports Car to successfully rival European models. The second generation of the Corvette was a significant period for the company. During that time, Corvette saw record sales, introduced a new engine, and adopted the two-word "Sting Ray" branding. This stunning example of the 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible belongs to the second generation. With a reported 6964 miles on its odometer, this beauty is currently located in Round Rock, Texas. If you are in the market for classics that carry a rich history and a Sunday cruiser that harks you back to olden times, this is the perfect car for you.
