Description:

1984 Ford Mustang

YOU ARE BIDDING ON A BEAUTIFUL EXAMPLE OF A 1984 MUSTANG SVO. LATE IN 1982, A HANDFUL OF FORD'S BEST ENGINEERS REALIZED THEY NEEDED A WORLD CLASS SPORTS CAR TO COMPETE WITH THE LIKES OF CORVETTE AND PORSCHE. THE SPECIAL VEHICLE OPERATIONS (SVO) TEAM WAS FORMED AND THIS CAR IS THE FIRST MANIFESTATION OF THEIR EFFORTS. MANY CHANGES WERE MADE TO THE STANDARD MUSTANG, SUCH AS USING A HIGH TECH 2.3 LITER TURBO FOUR CYLINDER ENGINE. THIS HIGH PERFORMANCE ENGINE WAS AS POWERFUL AS THE 5.0 V8 BUT MUCH LIGHTER AND MORE COMPACT. THIS ALLOWED FOR IT TO BE PLACED CLOSER TO THE FIREWALL AND DRASTICALLY IMPROVED HANDLING. A FULLY INDEPENDENT SUSPENSION AND FOUR WHEEL DISC BRAKES WERE ADDED ON THIS CAR, AS WELL AS ADJUSTABLE KONI SHOCKS FOR SUPERIOR HANDLING AND RIDE QUALITY. THIS IS A LATE MODEL 1984 SVO MUSTANG, SO IT HAS THE 4 SHOCK REAR SUSPENSION. SHIFTING IS FACILITATED THRU A HURST SHIFTER. THIS CAR IS TO FORD WHAT THE SUPERLEGGERA IS TO LAMBORGHINI OR WHAT THE SCUDERIA IS TO FERRARI.
THIS IS TRULY A CAR THAT WAS WAY AHEAD OF ITS TIME. THERE ARE MANY FEATURES THAT WERE NOT SEEN ON MUSTANGS FOR MANY YEARS TO COME. IT'S BECOMING MORE DIFFICULT TO FIND CLEAN EXAMPLES THAT HAVE NOT BEEN MODDED, CRASHED, OR ABUSED. THIS CAR HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND HAS BEEN WELL CARED FOR ITS ENTIRE LIFE (AS IS OBVIOUS BY ITS CONDITION).
THIS CAR NEEDS NOTING EXCEPT A CHARGE OF THE AC SYSTEM AND A NEW HEADLINER. IT'S READY FOR THE TWISTY BACK ROAD, YOUR LOCAL CRUISE NIGHT, OR JUST TO LOOK AT IN YOUR GARAGE. THE PAINT WAS REDONE ABOUT 6 YEARS AGO AND IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THERE ARE THREE SMALL BUBBLES STARTING TO FORM ON THE REAR C PILLAR WHERE IT MEETS THE ROOF (DRIVERS SIDE). THE WHEELS HAVE BEEN POLISHED, AND SHINE WITH A MIRROR FINISH. THE INTERIOR IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, AND HAS NEVER BEEN SMOKED IN.
THE ORIGINAL KONI FRONT SHOCKS STARTED TO LEAK YEARS AGO AND WERE REPLACED WITH NON-ADJUSTABLE ONES, HOWEVER, I STILL HAVE THE ORIGINAL SHOCKS WHICH WILL BE INCLUDED. THE ORIGINAL OWNERS MANUAL, SERVICE BOOK, AND EVEN A PLASTIC MODEL (UNBUILT) IS INCLUDED WITH THE SALE.
DON’T PASS UP THIS PIECE OF AUTOMOTIVE HISTORY. WITH TOTAL PRODUCTION OF 10,000 CARS THEY ARE QUICKLY FADING AWAY. SHIPPING TO UNITED STATES IS EASY AND I CAN ASSIST THE BUYER WITH ALL ASPECTS.
