    1989 Mustang 5.0/LX Sport Ready for engine mods!

    Ok here is the scoop:

    I bought this car totally stock 3 years ago. Built it for my wife as a driver/looker. It has only "foundation" mods done to get ready for the future. Fast forward to first baby & now baby #2 in the oven.. Time for her to go. I would not sweat a bead to put my wife & son in this car & send them to California & back. Everything is great.

    I own 4 other mustangs, the Harley truck, & a Fast-n-Furious project. Something needs to go. Has only been driven in the last 2 years to keep the tires fresh & the engine in good shape.

    Hey Rob, shoot me some pics at jotay21@yahoo.com. I am looking for a daily driver to keep the miles down on the HD. I am curious about the looks of the car. The wife was expecting a 4 banger, but this might work. Thanks

    Thanks... I tried to make it sweet for Momma to drive... but now 2 babies = no room for car seats.. LOL

    I willing to work out most anything.. Ship it, drive it out & fly home, trailer half way meet, I am game. If I arrange ship, I will only use one company Passport Auto Transport. They are the best. Figure $1,500 to ship it enclosed fuly insured to NJ.

    I am open... the car needs a good home.
