History
A true survivor car in its original state. Purchased in March of 1999 from the original owner who was a good family friend. Currently 33k and is all original except for replacing the Goodyear Eagle GT4 tires with Touring T/A's, a new Motorcraft Air Filter and Motorcraft plug wires. Other than that it's still the same as the day it rolled off the line in Lorain. Also is a late production car built a couple of weeks before production ended.

The cars best time so far has been a 15.79 which is a marked improvement over the earlier 4.6's. Which is not bad considering it's over 4000 pounds.

4.6

None. It already has cupholders.

The 30th Anniversary Package at 495.00 may be one of the best automotive bargains ever. Sport Suspension, Upgraded brakes, Power Sport Seats with lumbar and Bolsters. And some attractive commemorative badging and floor mats. And if you got Dark Toreodor Red it was a feature car exclusive.
