The Fox Body Mustang, introduced in 1979, marked a pivotal moment for Ford's pony car. Moving away from the Mustang II's Pinto-based architecture, the Fox platform offered a lighter, more aerodynamic, and significantly more capable foundation. By 1987, the Mustang GT received a substantial facelift, often referred to as the "aero" nose, which modernized its appearance and improved its drag coefficient. More importantly, under the hood, the venerable 5.0L V8 (or "5.0" as it became affectionately known) was further refined, producing a robust 225 horsepower and 300 lb-ft of torque. This combination of lightweight chassis and potent V8 power made the ’87-’93 GT a dominant force on the street and drag strip, cementing its status as an icon of 1980s and early 90s American performance. This particular 1987 Ford Mustang GT stands as a remarkable time capsule, showing an astonishingly low 12,710 original miles on its odometer. Presented in what appears to be largely original condition, its preservation speaks volumes about its pampered life. The iconic 5.0L V8 engine, paired with a manual transmission, promises an unadulterated driving experience, delivering that unmistakable rumble and surge of power enthusiasts crave. This is a rare chance to acquire a true survivor from a golden era of American performance.
