    Default 1985 Notchback, 347, 5 speed

    Hello and thanks for taking the time to check out my 1985 Ford Mustang Notchback.

    For a complete description and videos of this car, please go to https://toslo50carbedcoupe.webs.com

    I purchased this car on March 17, 2018 from an older gentleman located in York, PA. The videos on the website were taken by him along with all of the detailed information supplied. He did all the work shown. I have not done anything to the car since the purchase other than change the oil. I trailered the car to my home in NJ where it has been garage kept and rarely driven (maybe 100 miles). The car runs excellent and is extremely clean.

    Some of the highlights of this car as follows:

    The only issue known is that there is a small oil leak at the rear main seal. The previous owner had told me about this and I have a new seal but just haven't had time to change it.

    The car runs, drives and brakes excellent. The interior is in excellent condition with no rips or tears in the seats. The carpet appears to have been changed at some point and looks great.
    There is no rust anywhere on the car.

    The only reason I am selling it is that I do not have time to enjoy and would like to see go to someone who does rather than have it just sit in my garage.

    I welcome any and all questions and would be more than happy to have you inspect personally or have it inspected by a third party.

    Asking $10,000. Car is located in Cinnaminson, NJ

    Looks like a really nice car, and tastefully modified! I find it very interesting he did all the motor, trans & suspension work only to remain 4-lug and drum brakes out back! But based on the exterior of the car, I guess he could have been going for a stealth look.

    Very Sharp car.. I don't see AC pump, condenser, dryer or lines,.. is the heater core still connected, the HVAC box in place under dash? Here in Hanover Pa, it gets hot enough to consider AC, especially in a black car. Winter is another story altogether. The recent snowfall and sub freezing temps (in November!) reminded me that I'm getting old. Gotta have heat and defrost..

    I don't know how I missed that car being for sale, especially since it was for sale in York, literally a 25 minute drive from me....Was it a Craigslist ad or something else?

    Hate I missed out on this. If the new owner is a member here and might want to flip it for a few hundred send me a PM.
