The Appeal

The History and Paperwork

• Ordered new from Wade Ford, Georgia in April of 2000 this car has never left the current ownership 
• Over in the US, the car was enjoyed and maintained well
• In 2006 the car came over to the UK
• There were some small changes made to the lights to get them through a UK MOT 
• But these were carried out by a specialist in American cars 
• It was used in the UK until the early 2010s
• After this, it was SORN and stored in the garage
• The latest invoice from 2023 documents some work that will need to be carried out before it gets back out on the road
• You can see from the gallery that there is a lot of history that comes with the car
• This includes Ford handbooks, MOT certificates, US Titles, the UK V5, and assorted invoices
• Although it may require some work, this car will create many happy memories for you in the future
• Don’t miss out on this rare opportunity to own a modern muscle car

The Interior

• Inside this Mustang is trimmed in some rather nice beige leather with matching beige plastics
• The seats are trimmed with a fetching beige leather 
• In the rear, the two seats are in very good condition 
• The front passenger seat does some slight signs of wear but no large areas of damage
• You might spot some wear/cracks to the leather on the driver’s seat
• This is due to the car being left open in a warmer state 
• Potentially this can be an easy fix resolved with a set of new seat covers
• A lot of the interior is also finished in a similar beige colour too 
• The dashboard panel is in great condition with no cracking to the plastic
• The current owner had air-conditioning fitted from the factory, this wasn’t tested on the day however
• On the two large doors, you’ll find a set of well-presented beige door cards 
• This is where you’ll also find the controls for the electric windows
• With the fabric roof up the headliner is in okay condition with some small marks, but no large rips
• At the press of a button, the roof retracts and folds neatly behind the rear seats 
• It is then hidden by the included tonneau cover
• With the roof down the interior is filled with light making it feel nice and large 
• Having the roof retract opens up the interior to all of that V8 noise 
• Overall, the interior is in good condition and waiting for you to hop in

The Exterior 

• The exterior of the fourth-generation Mustang is instantly recognisable 
• Proudly wearing its Mustang badge in the front grille, it looks like every part of the muscle car it is
• Externally this car is in good condition, but it may need a little bit of TLC 
• Finished in a deep gloss black it still retains a nice shine and reflection
• There are a few marks that can be seen on the rear bumper and along the side of the car 
• Hopefully, these can be polished out so that you can have a pristine yank tank
• It sits on a nice set of five-spoke alloys
• These are all in rather good condition with little to no curb marking 
• There is also a space saver spare in the boot
• The fabric roof is in good condition 
• You might spot a few marks on the hood but there are no large areas of damage
• Overall, the exterior of this Mustang is relatively good
• With a little bit of TLC, you should be able to get this car looking its best 

The Mechanics 

• There is no doubt that this is a proper muscle car
• Under the bonnet is a large 4.6l V8 
• It then sends all of its power through a 5-speed manual gearbox to the rear wheels 
• The current owner recounted a couple of stories that prove its muscle car credentials
• On the day of the photos, the car was not run
• However, a couple of jump leads were connected, to show it does turn over
• The invoice from earlier this year also references that the car does run
• It will need some work carrying out to the brakes, this is the main area where work is needed.
• With this work completed, you can get this V8 muscle car back out on the road
• Thanks to its manual gearbox you will have a very engaging drive 
• You definitely don’t want to miss out on this opportunity
