48K Original Miles: 1992 Ford Mustang GT Convertible

When it comes to Fox bodies, there are iconic options and colors that make certain examples stand out above the rest. A red Mustang GT convertible with a white top and white leather interior is perhaps one of the most ideal looks for an 80s icon like this. If you were looking for the flashiest Mustang in 1992 that didn’t require some sort of a special order agreement, this was it. The seller notes it’s one of the mintiest ones he’s seen, and that it remains in 100% stock condition. Find it here on eBay with bids to $9,600 and the reserve unmet.

The seller purchased the Mustang from the long-time owner of 27 years. He has owned it for just one year, so it’s not exactly a flip, but it’s still a quick turnaround for a car that’s practically built for the upcoming warm weather months. The body shows no major flaws, with the factory bumpers and side skirts all presenting well. The later Fox bodies like this one had the decor across the taillights that is an oh-so-90s design feature, and while I’ve always preferred the earlier taillights, this visual tweak is very period-correct. The white top and Pony wheels both appear to be in excellent condition.

The interior is better than you’d expect for the mileage, especially because of the seating surfaces. White leather doesn’t take kindly to sloppy owners, so the fact that it remains so clean is a testament to two careful owners. The bright seats are offset by red surfaces everywhere else, from the door panels to the steering wheel to the seat belts. Fortunately, it all appears to be in excellent condition, and the seller claims everything works – which would presumably include the roof, which shows no obvious signs of rips or tears, and the back window appears to be clear.

The venerable 5.0 powers this early 90s performance drop-top, and the lack of modifications does much to enhance the appeal of this real-deal survivor. The paint looks quite lustrous in photos, and the seller is adamant that the front end has none of the chips, cracks, or other damage caused by road debris that plagues almost every other car on the road. I’m not sure how you avoid that in nearly 50,000 miles of driving, but it’s impressive nonetheless. While bidding does still seem light at the moment, I’m guessing it will pick up enough to clear the reserve, as the Mustang does seem as good as the seller describes and it’s not likely to lose much in the way of value.

    How would anyone want to pay more for this over an LX? I know, better seats, but face it, pretty gaudy if you ask me.

    I get why people prefer the LX and I’m partial to a black 5.0 LX hatch myself, but there is something special about a GT in all it’s glory in Red/white. Those taillights belong on it. Maybe it’s because I was a kid when these were new. This is gorgeous and the ashtray cover isn’t broken like they often seem to be.
