Default 1988 - FHP0665

It's either a good time or bad time but I'm going all in... FHP0665 needs a new home.



I've come to the crossroads and would rather see the car appreciated for what it's worth by someone who would do as such. For that reason it is ONLY being listed here for now.

You can read the basics about it that were discussed in my original thread a couple of months back here... http://www.specialservicemustang.net...ead.php?t=4501

I've been out in the garage where it has been stored for the last 6-7 years checking it over, charged up the battery, and managed to confirm a couple of things. I at least found the same Mustang I left with the addition of a nice coat of dust that still needs to be cleaned off of it. After charging up the battery I was able to get it started briefly only with the assistance of some starting fluid shot into the intake. This leads me to believe the full tank of gas I parked it with needs to be drained, flushed, and some fresh gas put in (with my schedule I may or may not get around to doing that before the end of the year). It also appears that the right rear brake piston may be leaking as there is evidence of it in the inside of the rim but I have not pulled the tire yet to confirm (I replaced both rear tire pistons at one point in its life with me).

At present, it's a little more beast than beauty and with the above mentioned items as well as the previous issue with the clutch I mentioned before; I would hardly consider it to be a "sign & drive" at this point.

Asking $3,500... had a few inquires on my original post and I quoted a little more but sentimental value played more a part in that. I still feel like I'm giving my kid up for adoption. If you send me a PM it may be a couple days before I get back with you as I may be working a 16 hour day or two during my work week but I will eventually respond.

Thanks... Larry

Well after hearing where the winning tickets were, I think it's safe to say I won't be hearing from you guys anytime soon. 1 was in Arizona though... Andy, you in the market for an 88???

Priceless at the moment. With 8000 miles on it in the last 2 months - give it about 3 years and it will be up for grabs at auction... lol.
